New Kickstarter, Two Books!
Our new Kickstarter campaign has just launched, and features two books.
The Book of Lost Lore has new player character classes and races, new magic, and alternate optional rules for your existing old-school fantasy RPG game. It includes things like an alternate combat system, two new treasure systems, rules for social encounters, a very flexible skill system, and lots more.
The Book of Lost Beasts has a ton of new monsters, also for your old-school game. Not only does it include all of the “new” monsters from A Curious Volume of Forgotten Lore and the Adventures Dark and Deep Bestiary, as well as monsters from my adventures that have been published over the years, but also dozens of new monsters never before seen.
Together they are meant to replace my first-ever RPG book, A Curious Volume of Forgotten Lore. If you’re looking to add a lot of new options and challenges for your players, this is the place.
You can find the Kickstarter campaign here.

Castle of the Mad Archmage for 5th Edition!
For years at conventions, I’ve been asked if the Castle of the Mad Archmage adventure book was available in a 5th Edition-friendly format. Well, now I can finally say the answer is yes!
You can get the adventure book, map book, and illustration book as a bundle in print here, or in digital format here.
The same classic megadungeon; vast, more than 13 levels, deadly, laden with trips and traps and monsters and loot, but now using the newest version of the D&D rules.

Changes to 2020 Convention Schedule
There’s a bit of a change in our convention schedule for the next couple of months.
- We will not be appearing at GaryCon (WI)
- We will not be appearing at TotalCon (MA)
- We will be appearing at Dreamation (NJ) the weekend of Feb 22nd
Apologies to those who were expecting to see us, but unfortunately circumstances have required these changes to the schedule. We hope to be at both GaryCon and TotalCon again next year.

Happy Friday evening all!

New freebie now available over on DriveThruRPG!
For years folks have been asking for an index for the Adventures Dark and Deep Bestiary. Well, now it’s a reality. It includes a complete index of all creatures in the Bestiary book, as well as suggestions for replacements for things that weren’t able to be included because of licensing issues.
