The Empire of the Ghouls released for Patrons!

Open Design's third project, The Empire of the Ghouls, has been released to their patrons. This Open Design project is all about creating an advanced, detailed underdark society of civilized ghouls. Some highlights include description of their gods, slaves, templates, new monsters, and unique magic, and then setting up all those elements within a multi-level adventure for roughly 9th to 12th level. The final result will be a 100+ page adventure unlike any other, with lethal and new challenges for any experienced party.

Open Design's fourth project, an Arabian Nights-themed project, is open for donations now. Become a patron and have one of the industry's leading writers craft an adventure based on your feedback!

Kobold Quarterly #2 Released!

Small but fierce is the by-line of this quarterly magazine, but the contents are anything but small. The second issue continues with the Princes of Hell article series, detailing a lazy figure. A rare interview with Wayne Reynolds, fan-beloved artist, along with a barghest Ecology article written by another fan favorite, Nicolas Logue, is only the tip of the fierce content in this issue of Kobold Quarterly.

Subscriptions to KQ start at $16 a year for PDF-only, or if you like the feel of dead tree in your hands, $36 a year. International subscriptions are available, read more about it at Open Design's website.

Pathfinder #2 - The Skinsaw Murders

WereCabbage Richard Pett penned this freakishly fascinating tale of the Skinsaw Men and their murderous exploits in Sandpoint. Unravelling the mystery of the murders is just the first step, but will the heroes themselves become suspects? Continuing Paizo's tradition of high production values and even better writing, "The Skinsaw Murders" are the second in Paizo's Pathfinder Chronicles Adventure Path series.

GameMaster Module U1: Gallery of Evil

Steve Greer's tale of a popular artist's showings gone terribly wrong is the first GameMastery Module adventure for Urban settings. When the painter's patrons turn up in pieces, it's up to the heroes to discover the truth being the paintings.

Bits of Magicka: Rings and Jewels

The second of Greg Ragland's Bits of Magicka series of PDFs, "Rings and Jewels" takes your ho-hum rings, necklaces and amulets and gives them a new spin to make your players go "Whoa" (or not - cursed items are included).
