Liminal Horror & One Night at the Shelterwood Inn



I was joined by the creatives minds behind LIMINAL HORROR, which is a rules-lite, adaptable modern horror roleplaying game about normal characters and their struggles against the things that go bump in the night. I welcomed Goblin Archives who wrote Liminal Horror based upon the Cairn System, and Josh Domanski who has been instrumental is developing the look and feel of the system through modules like The Bureau and The Bloom.

Spectacle: Science-Fantasy Gladiatorial Mayhem for Troika! - Game Pitch

 


Spectacle is an all-in one world setting, adventure hook, and background compendium for the Troika! RPG system inspired by that classic comic book premise: your PCs have been kidnapped by an insane alien overlord and forced into gladiatorial combat! 

Craft your character from a d66 table of unique backgrounds and prepare to step forth into battle against other PCs, sinister alien threats, and perhaps even the omnipresent EYE itself. Winning your freedom is only the beginning. 

Spectacle is written by Seth Ian, with artwork by Mark Conway, editing by Luke Gearing, and layout by Tony Jaguar. For fans of Jack Kirby's Fourth World, living planets such as Mogo and Ego, Junji Ito's Hellstar Remina, and the weirder pallet of comic tropes. 

This 40+ page digest-sized zine features:
  • 36 new backgrounds with unique stats, skills, and starting equipment
  • 36 special enemies, including The Eye, the all-seeing autocrat of the gladiator pits
  • Detailed rules for creating and running adventures upon the living planet
  • Random tables for generating Gladiator Names, Fight Titles, Random Encounters, and more
