Phlogiston Books 1 The (5e)
What you hold in your hands¸ bold reader¸ is the first issue of The Phlogiston Books¸ an anthology of game aids¸ house rules¸ and adventures for the Dungeon Crawl Classics RPG¸ gleaned from the various planes of the multiverse.
Some of the articles in this volume deal with one of the most dangerous environments that a party of daring adventurers can face: the countryside. We thus vindicate this setting¸ its dwellers¸ and its huge potential in a new and exciting genre that we've dubbed as "Rural fantasy".
In these esoteric pages you'll find...
- A new patron¸ The Gallows tree¸ to whom the wizards and elves of humble origins can sell their souls in exchange of scraps of power.
- How to bring superstition to your game table… and make it work.
- Rules to create animals like wolves¸ tigers¸ bears¸ and even more bloodthirsty and raging beasts like goats or geese. A table of disturbing rural encounters.
- A level-0 adventure set in the most noble hamlet of Humiliatown: Beaten copper.
So sharpen your sword and memorize your spells¸ 'cause otherwise you could end up dead¸ or even worse: hanging from the gallows tree.
