- City State (pt 2)
I was excited for this project - for I still own pieces of the original from the 80s (some of the maps, etc.) and some of my fave campaigns took place in those places back in the 80s.

The One Ring
The new edition of The One Ring™ tabletop roleplaying game, set in the world of The Lord of the Rings™ by J.R.R. Tolkien and designed by the brilliant Francesco Nepitello and his team.
Vaesen: Nordic Horror Roleplaying
Mystery and horror are really great themes to explore in RPGs. I love the folklore, mystery, and horror during the late 19th century. Vaesen is a beautiful game of gothic Nordic mystery and horror.
Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay
Warhammer (WFRP) is an old fave - with a newer revised edition. I’ve always loved the dark, gritty, yet humorous adventures in the Old World.

I have some cool and interesting adventures and setting materials - designed for a world after disaster. Come for the familiarity - stay for the weird and surprises!
