Into the Old-School Forbidden Isle
🕑 Added 2022-12-09 07:37:22 +0000 UTCThis week, Raging Swan Press brings you the final edition (for OSR games) of Forbidden Isle of the Nightstalkers as well as a first (preview) look at the Urban Locale line.
In case you missed them the first time around also find enclosed with your codes the codes for the 5e and P1 editions of the Forbidden Isle of the Nightstalkers.
About Forbidden Isle of the Nightstalkers
The backwater village of Thornhill is a dismal, dreary place. Its folk—superstitious, backward peasants—have little to do with the outside world. Sometimes, though, the outside world intrudes on Thornhill and its folk.
A century ago, a vampire came to Thornhill. Crusading adventurers destroyed the beast, but not without great cost. Before its destruction, the night-stalker infected several villagers with its terrible curse. The survivors could not bring themselves to slay their fellows. Instead, they imprisoned the vampire’s spawn in a hidden tomb to await a cure that never came.
Now, a mad priest’s blasphemous pursuit of the greater good lures the characters to a hidden prison-tomb dug into a lonely island amid the ebon waters of a cursed lake.
An adventure by Creighton Broadhurst for 5th-level characters.
Urban Locales: First Look
I have attached to this post the quasi-final draft of the first Urban Locale for your perusal and comment. (The Urban Locale line is jolly similar in theme and style to the Monstrous Lair line but—obviously—focused on urban locales.) Please download Urban Locale #01: Dockside Tavern and take a look. I’d love to know if you think it presents the kind of information you would need to bring the place alive in your players’ minds (or to facilitate a solo game).
Where’s My Stuff?
By the time you read this, everyone at the $5 and up levels should have a message from me containing the special secret download codes for this week’s books. Drop them into your browser, and you should be good to go. If you have any problems, send me a message, and I’ll sort it out for you.
Thank You

Epic! Thanks very much for letting me know, Tim. Much appreciated. I'd rather get the line right from the start than mess about with content in the future.

Re: UL01_DocksideTavern. These descriptions will definitely come in handy when I need to fill out a dockside town. Serve up more please.
