Cypher Adventures and Print & Play PCs

We love RPGs.  We’ve played in many systems and hope to write in many of them as high-quality Creative Commons and Open Licenses permit. 

We’re starting with the Cypher system from Monte Cook Games. Cypher keeps the story front and center, which makes it fun to play in and fun to write for. Whether you yearn for a high fantasy epic, a tragic romance, an autumnal horror, a superhero saga, a tale from history or a glimpse of the far future, Cypher has the tools to make it happen.

Most of our stories are played out over three to four Scenes in 1-2 sessions and come complete with NPCs, maps and/or illustrations, suggested Cyphers and GM intrusions, and, of course, options for taking the path of villainy ruthless self-interest.

We’ve heard a number of players and GMs wishing for pre-generated characters that included character sheets for the higher Tiers. Challenge accepted! Over time, we’ll be releasing sets of pre-generated PCs with sheets for three Tiers each.

All our Cypher-compatible products will be released on DriveThruRPG. Take a peek at our current offerings below!

The Fair Folk of Winter are brilliant, dangerous, and keen.  Do you have what it takes to walk among them?

In The Unseelie Saga, Players take on the roles of darkly magical Fae whose actions will decide the fate of the Winter Court.  This trilogy of adventures lets you tell the story of darkly magical Fae in a social structure that rewards the keen, the intelligent, and the fierce, as they confront the end of their way of life. In each adventure, the PCs have agency and opportunity to shift the narrative.

Fae are living magic and as dangerous as that sounds. The Unseelie are Fae who are most powerful from the second half of autumn through the first half of spring. Our ideas of Unseelie are colored by the autumn hunts, the gathering of winter stores and smoking of meats, the bitter bite of the winter wind, the crunch of iced snow, the soft patter of spring rains, the brilliance of the hearth-fire and the gleam of the snowdrop.

The adventure begins with Seoithín seó, when the sound of a horn shatters an ancient treaty.  When the hunter’s horn sounds, where will you choose to stand?  In the second adventure, Path to Glory, the Fae realize their home is starting to die. But is there, in all the Glade, an Unseelie determined enough to forge the legend that might save the Glade? In the final adventure, Withering Winter, the Players must decide: will they save the Glade, or shatter it?

Turn your face to the falling snow.  Take a breath.  Follow the call of the raven into the world of The Unseelie Saga.

Step aboard the Desperate Measures in A Major Minor Problem, our second sci-fi adventure.  In this two-sided adventure, you can choose to play as the capable crew of the Desperate Measures or as a group of resourceful young privateers striving to save their world. Will you discover the truth in time to stop an explosive ending?

This 23-page adventure includes many PC paths, clever intrusions, eleven fully-written NPCs, a streamlined space combat system, and an optional social mechanic we’re calling parlay.  Running a pick-up or convention game?  Great!  We’ve added a few fully-written Player Character sheets: just print and play!  Take a look at this release on DTRPG.

Grave Rites

In the realm of Ablia, ghosts, werewolves, and other free-willed undead roam the night freely.  Westkee Graveyard is home to a number of ghosts and supernatural beings.  Now, strangers with shovels are marching onto the property.

It’s time for the dead to rise in their own defense.
