Whisper & Venom

This is an epic adventure set in the isolated Whisper Vale, where insular villagers face supernatural forces and self-imposed hardships. The Whisper Vale comprises three distinct settlements: Whisper, a hardworking village of farmers and traders, humble farmsteads, a busy inn, an empty temple, and a smattering of small shops; Swindle, a once-idyllic town now overrun by lazy goblin bandits; and Cleft, a dwarven settlement where the younger generation ceased working thanks to an ingenious machine. The adventure includes five areas for exploration, including a peaceful monastery, an undead-infested region, a goblins' lair, and mysterious caverns that may lead to the afterlife!

The Sorcerer: A Custom Class

This provides rules for playing the sorcerer class in your games! Sorcerers are adventurers who have an innate ability to cast arcane magic spells. Sorcerers know a limited number of spells but can cast them more frequently and with greater flexibility. The players and referee are encouraged to determine the origin of the sorcerer’s innate affinity for magic – perhaps the sorcerer is a descendant of a powerful magical being, or perhaps they received their abilities through a cataclysmic event! PDF available from DriveThruRPG.
