Cycle of the Snake-Wolf (d20)
"I know fear¸ for my village is forfeit. The witch coerces the flames into a whirlwind¸ and the hiss and crackle of wood is heard¸ sour¸ tinged by a snarl. It warps and ripples¸ a tear forming¸ and out pour the jaws of a wolf and the scales of a snake." - A Guardian
Inspired by tales told in front of bonfires¸ comes a Terror of the Stratosfiend supplement focused on bones and what we do with them.
Inside of the Dungeon Crawl Classic compatible module you will find:
- New Items: Trinkets that serve as strange luck charms
- Bone Craft: How bones are adapted to armor and weaponry. What magic ESSENCE lies inside of the bones?
- New Bestiary Entries: "Gargantuan Dryads" that trade limb for limb and the Terrifying (and teleporting) "Snake-Wolves" that come from beyond the stars (look at the cover art).
- New Ritual Spell: "Snake-Wolf Cycling" that allows you to summon the a host of snake-wolves and harness their strange power.
- New Spell Weapon: a bone truncheon forged from the ashes of a successful ritual.
- Were-Snake-Wolves: a terrifying transformation
- Scorched Bone Tea: it communicates with ghosts... perhaps they possess you?
- New Deity: Council of the Snake-Wolf. A deep space commune-nest giving their own Canticles¸ divine favors as per the DCC Annual. They also come with new spellburn¸ patron taint¸ and lay on hands results.
- New Curse: "Curse of the Cosmic Wasting" used for those that run from duty. It erodes your attributes over days.
- New Carousing Table: what strange things do you find in the woods? Pterodactyl Eggs? A smoldering fire? Weapons-Satellites?
- And a Rumor Table¸ everyone needs one.
This product is compatible with the Dungeon Crawl Classics Role Playing Game.
