OSE Third-Party Adventures & Kickstarters

Tome of Essential Horrors II Preview

Coming soon to a Kickstarter near you, The Tome of Essential Horrors 2 by Necromancer Games builds on its predecessor, introducing over 100 new and classic monsters for Old-School Essentials, sourced from the extensive bestiary of Frog God/Necromancer Games.

To give you an idea of the richly gameable menagerie of monstrosities that awaits you, Necromancer Games has released a preview PDF, teasing a slick design, readable layout, a full list of contents, and handy pre-made encounter scenarios that spark ideas on how to introduce each monster at the table. The preview showcases eight complete monster entries, including the fearsome Crimson Basilisk, the dreaded Dream Spectre, and the brutal Jack-In-Irons.

Gary's Appendix: Issue 6 - Dragons!

Gary’s Appendix returns, this time focusing on dragons of all shapes and sizes. Inspired by the classic AD&D Dungeon Masters Guide and featuring contributions from leading authors in the OSR community, Issue 6 contains strategies for playing dragons as well as ideas for their ecology, diet, and attitudes. You’ll also find expanded entries on monsters from the Old-School Essentials collection as well as new draconic foes to enrich your bestiary.

With Kickstarter having already met its funding goals, backers can add on previous zines and adventures for a veritable hoard of rewards.

Settlers of a Dead God

Explore a world formed from the decomposing body of a dead deity in this original setting for Old-School Essentials. Inhabitants, initially insects, have evolved into powerful insectoids, forming tribes, cities, and kingdoms in an age of discovery.

With detailed geography and history, new creatures, rules for insectoid characters, stress, and travel, this 96-page book (available in PDF and hardcover) also includes an introductory adventure in this unique and mysterious setting.
