Adventurers of the North - Kalevala Heroes (usually abbreviated to ANKH) is a fantasyrole-playing game, based loosely on the Kalevala, the national epic of Finland.
ANKH's system was quite similar to that of Dungeons & Dragons, with some elements borrowed from RuneQuest; A review in Finnish RPG magazine Sininen Lohikäärme compared the system to that of Tunnels & Trolls.
ANKH was published by Nelospelit in 1989.
The system was designed by Pasi Janhunen, who also provided some of the illustrations, the rest were drawn by Petri Hiltunen.
