CONTROL THE COURSE OF THE HIDDEN WARS! Take your place as gamemaster of a dark epic RPG set in an age of world-shaking heroes and villains vying to protect or corrupt humanity. This is a setting rife with brutal battles, sinister plots, and murderous intrigue, blending Lovecraftian cosmic horror with ancient civilizations who must rise above old feuds. As gamemaster, you will bring this world to life, shining a light into dark corners along the borders of an expanding empire encroaching on proud cultures already beset by nefarious threats. The supernatural wars are instigated and controlled by secretive cabals. The most powerful of these are led by quasi-immortal beings who have turned to dark magic, poorly understood relics, and unholy pacts to extend their lifespans. This includes the last remnants of fallen Atlantis, whose shadow spreads wide. Some of these groups are largely benevolent, if pragmatic and sometimes cruel, seeking to safeguard humanity against its greatest foes. Others are fully devoted to the Outer Gods and would see the world burn. Will your players rise to become great legends or, like so many others, fall to the corruptive temptations offered by Mythos Gods? Their fates are in your hands. Features: Detailed information on the factions at play, including the history of the Hidden Wars, and a guide to the frontier town of Laurium, which serves as an ideal place for heroic PCs of all backgrounds to assemble. Perspectives on the mindset of the ancient era and how this can inform your own games, including an examination of the gods and divine pantheons of the ancient world. Lore and rules systems to generate artifacts of legend, including those built by the fallen Atlanteans, the vanished Hyperboreans, and the lurking Mythos cults. Description of the magic tomes and grimoires, with four complete spellbooks covering Mormo, Nyarlathotep, Cthulhu, and Yog-Sothoth. A repository of profiles for adversaries including potent and dangerous mortals as well as many monstrous Mythos creatures. Special advancement options to create Voidforged, the most experienced PCs who have shouldered difficult burdens in exchange for great power. Detailed Plot Generator to help generate NPCs, Hooks, Plot Concepts, Antagonists, Themes, Goals, Objectives, Artifacts, Locations, and more.

A tabletop roleplaying game about ghosts in a strange spooky found family. Tell stories that can be scary, hopeful, horrifying, or comforting.The setting is just as important as the characters you’ll play. Describe what sweet and creepy things happen in a room of the mansion that belongs to you. There are several Rooms for you to choose from and The Haunt comes alive as we explore the themes and moods of each Room. The main characters spend time together, hide from the Living, will scare or be scared, and explore the liminal space between life and death. THE CHARACTERS The Loved, who remains in this world hoping to find their lost love — or at least, honor their memory. The Betrayed, murdered by violent means, trapped as a ghost until they get revenge. The Faceless, who died so long ago they can barely remember their true form. The Returned, who has seen the worlds beyond death and is here to spread the word. The Doll, trapped inside the body of a doll and unable to express their true self. The Cat, or the ghost of a cat, wandering these halls among these strange humans. Once we’ve made our characters, we’ll develop the haunted house we live in before exploring the strange and creepy world that exists around us. While we play, we’ll discover memories of our past, tussle with the living, dodge the ancient monstrosities that lurk beyond the veil, and support each other in a strange and liminal half-world.

He is great among the Wise. He is the chief of my order and the head of the Council. His knowledge is deep, but his pride has grown with it, and he takes ill any meddling. Hands of the White Wizard contains six adventures for The One Ring™, the official tabletop roleplaying game based on the works of J.R.R. Tolkien, in which the heroes are sent to serve – or watch – the White Wizard Saruman. The adventures take place from the year 2965 to the opening moves of the War of the Ring, and can be played individually, or as part of a larger tale. For Saruman the White is the Lord of Isengard, a counsellor to kings, a master of Ring-lore, and the chief adversary of the Enemy. Great is his wisdom, yet greater still is his pride. The tale starts before his fall; the treason of Isengard has not begun. Perhaps Saruman’s doom is already written, or perhaps the heroes can change the ending and save the White Wizard from corruption. Saruman’s fate – and that of all Middle-earth – lies in their hands!
