The future is a strange place with strange drinks. These drinks are made from strange chemicals and strange plants that may or may not have once born fruit, and they have strange flavours, textures and smells. Of course, when you're travelling through deep space, the most important thing is to remain hydrated, so just hold your nose, open your throat, and try to ignore the lumps in your space-goat milk.

A list of 36 (d66) names of futuristic space drinks. Generic to all human-centric science fiction universes.

Castles & Crusades: The Town of Kalas

A Castles & Crusades Sandbox Adventure and Setting module for the Fantasy Grounds virtual tabletop

Adventure Type: City/Town
Level: Any
Party: Any characters
Setting: Portable to Home-brew, Airhde (Best as City of Meteira)

Sitting on the banks of the Ganda river estuary, the town of Kalas has a population of some 8,000 souls. The Town sees a great deal of business pass in through its gates; river barges coming down from the lakes, seagoing merchant vessels and privateers, as well as caravans coming in from the Ust-Aan steppes. The town serves as a trading centre, a rest stop, and as a place to refit vessels, caravans and parties of adventurers.

In Kalas dusky islanders, and ebony visitors from the Dark Continent mingle with steppe men, pale blonde barbarians from the north, and the swarthy, warm-eyed locals. Grass elves, their skins painted brown and green – grey elves from the forest, even sea elves from the shore bargain in the bazaar with Ebony dwarves from the desert, pale Dwarves from the north, leaf gnomes, marsh Halflings and the dark skinned Halfling wanderers from far distant veldts.

Kalas is THE location for an adventuring party. Walking in from little villages off the river, or arriving by ship or caravan, the characters can begin to hunt about and purchase equipment, find a place to stay and have fun crawling the bars. Every location and every character here have been created with the potential for adventures!

This is a sandbox adventure setting. Written by Paul Kidd the Town of Kalas is a wonderfully contained town setting easy to port to any game. It includes all the details on the town, with maps, as well as everything you need to on the major NPCs. The Town of Kalas is filled with hosts of adventure hooks good for long range campaigns or short one night adventures.

This full color battlemap is the 155th of a series featuring various terrains. This installment of the battlemap series features a short stretch of road in a desert. This map was designed to match the Checkpoint battlemap.

The map is 30 x 28 squares in size, with each 1 inch square scaled to represent 5 feet. It is provided in 12 segments, which need to be assembled, in a single PDF using the letter format.

Eerie Forest is a haunted forest you can place anywhere in your own campaign. The forest is dotted with suggestive locations and interesting places to explore.

In this blueprint you will find the maps of the Spiderhaunt Manor (ground floor, first floor and rooftop) plus the cellar with the lab and a dungeon called “the Web”, below the cellar itself.

Araknos was a scientist and a cleric. He bought Tramygon manor, which eventually became grisly known as “Spiderhaunt Manor”, one of the most avoided places of the Eerie Forest. Nobody knows why the cleric scientist retired in such an isolate place. Whispers tell that he found a mighty artifact, which he wanted to hide from the rest of the world.
The Eerie forest hermit, Digudus, swore the scientist was utterly mad and that the artifact was a religious relic able to contact the plane of the Spider Queen.
One stormy night, the manor was hit by a fierce lightning bolt, but, instead crumbling to dust it was left mostly unharmed. The day after the manor was desert, no one was found inside. The caravan who usually brought supplies to the manor returned back with undelivered goods. Rumors tell that Araknos freed a terrible demon, which eventually managed to ban by immolating with him.
Since then the manor was plundered by marauders and bandits, but no one dared to enter Araknos laboratory in the cellars.

Have you ever killed a man with a handful of grass? She has.

While some individuals, the druids and rangers of the world, learn to coexist and be one with nature, other individuals, the alchemists of the world, learn to harness nature and force it to do their bidding. The herbalists of the world take a path between these two extremes. Herbalists see the natural world as a tool to be revered, a cornucopia of plenty that needs to be properly exercised to extract full benefit from it. From the smallest shelf mushroom to the greatest of flora, the herbalist knows the inner secrets of all things that grow upon this earth.

Designed to play as an assassin / rogue / chaos druid, the herbalist uses the plants around her as a substitute for spells per day. As such, she is dependant upon her surroundings as a means of power acquisition. That is to say, if she is in the forest, the plants she can acquire are vastly different from those in the desert. Each biome (desert, forest, grasslands, mountains, tundra, underground, and wetlands) has been carefully balanced to provide healing, support, offensive, and defensive capabilities regardless of where the herbalist is.

Now, the idea of randomly generating "plants per day" may seem a bit daunting. Fear not! All the complexity has been boiled down to a few rolls on one of a set of simple tables. What's more, each biome has been summarized on a single sheet, including the functions of each herb in that biome, and each summary sheet contains a handy column for recording just how many of that herb the herbalist has.

"Alright, but what about moving from biome to biome? Won't I lose access to the plants I like?"

Well, yes and no. Though an herbalist will lose access to going out and picking a biome's herbs if not in that biome, she always has the option to plant her favorite plants in terra cotta pots that she hauls around, thus letting her always be sure that certain tactical options will ALWAYS be available, no matter how strange her daily plants pool may be. Further, an herbalist can carry over a small subset of her plants per day to the next day, allowing her to benefit from a glut of an herb she particularly enjoys and giving her the ability to survive the lack of an herb she leans upon heavily.

"Fine, but isn't the idea of having everything an entire biome can do small enough to fit on a page rather limiting?"

Again, no! The herbalist can cook down her herbs using recipes to create new and exciting concoctions, some of which are wildly different from what they started out as!

"What if I end up somewhere that isn't one of your biomes? What if there are no plants at all?"

The notion of an area with no plants is addressed within the class mechanics. If a new and exciting biome comes along, the very system used to create the standard biomes in the first place is presented in its entirety at the back of the document, including the raw, editable tables used to make the tables within the supplement in the first place! It shouldn't be too hard to mix the herbs up and make it yourself with that kind of support.

This product includes:

• The Herbalist base class
• The Conservationist archetype
• The Flowerchild archetype
• Eight pages of biome find herbs tables
• The Herb Log, containing 69 herbs with physical descriptions and, for many, art
• The Recipe Book, containing 22 recipes.
• Eight pages of biome summary tables
• Complete rules and formulae for creating your own biomes, including the unitless point values used to assign relative power levels to the herbs in the seven standard biomes
• Raw .png files for all of the biome summary tables, as well as a blank biome summary table and blank biome find herbs table.
• The blank Microsoft Publisher 2003 tables so you can make your own biomes look as good as possible.

Technobabble Generator

In all good sci-fi games and stories, having impressive sounding technology can help with the immersion.

If something is broken, faulty, been stolen or needs to be modified, you need to know what it is called. It can be weird effects, or something your scanner has picked up. The point is to make it sound futuristic and science-y

What is actually does though is another matter entirely.

What Price Immortality?

If you could avoid living in a severely diseased, injured, or dying body by having your brain transplanted into a durable, powerful artificial body, would you? Even if you knew you wouldn't have the full range of your human senses and sensibilities? What if you could eschew the organic altogether, and have your consciousness uploaded, without interruption, into a computer that would inhabit one of these powerful, durable bodies? It would still be you, there is continuation of consciousness, but it would be... different. No longer, strictly speaking, human. Would you?

Here is a comprehensive set of rules for exploring these questions in The Victory System.  Includes new Mechanica, new Equipment, and a collection of Full Conversion Frames ready for a living brain, or even an intellect converted into data, to occupy.  Exist as a super soldier, a living tank, a mechanical super-hero, or make a bid for true immortality.

Just be careful... there's always a price, and the money is only the beginning.  What would you be willing to leave behind, if the rest of you could carry forward into the future?

Prosthetica is a supplement for the Victory System... you will need the Core Rulebook to play.

The Kitbag series from Avenger Enterprises covers the must-have guns, gadgets and gear that a self-respecting adventurer shouldn’t be seen without. Each issue focuses on a theme – a weapon type, an environment or a field application. Whether it’s cold weather mountaineering equipment you need or a mid-tech infantry weapon… it’s in the kitbag.

Kitbag 3 focuses on hand weapons; A hand weapon is defined, for our purposes, as a weapon that is held in the hand or hands (or paw/paws, gripper/grippers etc) and is used at close range. This includes conventional swords, axes, maces, daggers spears and the like as well as more advanced weapons such as shock batons and a range of fairly exotic systems.

Inside you will find a collection of hand weapons useable in your Traveller game, so have fun and get the fight going.

In 2011, 4 Winds Fantasy Gaming released the Tome of Monsters for the Pathfinder Roleplaying Game System. If there is one thing that I really love its monster books. That is why I worked with Stefen Styrsky and Tricky Owlbear Publishing to create Forgotten Foes. However, it seems that a lot of monsters that get created never make it into the games of our fellow gamemasters. The Tome of Monster Encounters (TOME, for sort) is our attempt to corrrect that problem. 

TOME: A Whale of a Problem is a single encounter designed for use with thirteenth level player characters. It follows the same format as our Encounter Pages series and features:

• An encounter for 13th level characters
• Updated statistics for the abaia from the Tome of Monsters
• Porphyran racial characteristics for fetchlings
• Information to set this encounter within the Sea of Ithreia near the Barony of Thuthon

This PDF gives you over 300+ different authentic Anglo-Saxon Names for your games and their meaning.

  After the great battle fought inside the Temple of Abaddon, your adventuring company realized that in order to save your world, you would need to go through the gate that imprisoned the Angel of Destruction and destroy it from the other side.

  The gate stands between two worlds, between our dimension and the one above our reality. Your team needs to enter the astral plane and destroy the gate and trap Abaddon in his pocket dimension.  After you step through the portal, you arrive in a world that is different from anything you have ever seen. A strange green and white mist covers everything, anything farther away than a stone’s throw blurs in the distance.

What will you do to stop him?  Would you destroy the last known gate, or attempt to find a better way?
The map is ready; the adventure now depends upon you!

Hot on the Trail of Adventure!

            It’s not easy being green, and, even more than druids, rangers suffer from a split personality in Pathfinder. Somewhere between fighters and druids, with more than a dash of rogue, it can sometimes be hard to say what being a ranger is all about, other than that they’re in touch with the wilderness…except, of course, when they happen to be bounty hunters, trappers, or just plain expert archers.

            A Necromancer’s Grimoire: Bounty of the Ranger is a celebration of the ranger class. From prestige classes, to archetypes, to new feats, there’s something in here for everyone, whether you have a ranger character or not (and by the time we’re done, you’ll certainly want one). Here are just a few things you’ll find:

• The ace marksman prestige class, which specializes in archery and produces incredibly accurate, deadly archers.
• The inexorable stalker prestige class, members of which can find anyone, anywhere, and even follow tracks through a teleport or planeshift spell.
• The landbond shifter, who leaves humanity behind to become an animal permanently, but shifts from one species to the next depending on where he roams.
• The pack lord archetype for rangers, which grants an entire pack of animal companions.
• The greenstalker sniper archetype for rangers, a ranged specialist that focuses on careful aim and well-planned ambushes.
• The nature’s voice archetype for rangers, which strikes a closer balance between martial prowess and spellcasting ability.
• The twin blade marauder archetype for rangers, whose members are capable of doing things with two weapons that others can only dream of.
• Five new archetypes for “ranger-adjacent” classes such as fighter, druid, and rogue, which help them get a taste of being a ranger.
• 25 new feats for characters of all types, including new feats for a wide variety of ranger combat styles.

Show Us Your Grit!

When the chips are down, you're out of ammo, and death is looming over your head, giving in to despair is natural. Death is a natural part of life. So, do you accept it, or do you fight kicking and screaming? For those who spit on the first choice, move beyond fear and throw their empty weapon in death's face with maniacal laughter, we have this simple offering of true grit.

We included all the core classes (+ anti-paladin) with grit-based archetypes:

• Barbarian: Shock Trooper
• Bard: Mercenary of Metal
• Cleric: Favored One
• Druid: Beastman
• Fighter: Versatilist
• Monk: Pit Combatant
• Paladin: Pillar of Divinity
• Ranger: Targeteer
• Rogue: Career Scoundrel
• Sorcerer: Legendary Bloodline
• Wizard: Self-Taught Wizard
• Anti-Paladin: Exemplar of Evil

AND 30+ grit based feats, new firearm weapons, explosive enchantments and magic items that will give more than just a bang for your buck. More of a low rumbling "boom" you hear in neighboring countries.

This book is a must have for any aspiring gunslinger or grit-based character!

* 30 page document

            The Pathfinder Bestiary, and the long line of monstrous encyclopedia that came before it, do a great job of attacking the problem of providing game statistics and mechanical information for a very wide variety of creatures. There are a lot of strange creatures from fantasy novels and movies, from ancient mythology, and, as time went on, from the twisted minds of game designers and even GMs, for that matter. Anyone today who tried to go about creating an extensive bestiary of all the different cool and interesting fantasy monsters could fill three or four volumes with three hundred monsters each, and still have a long way left to go, with fans crying out for various “forgotten” monsters to get some attention. That kind of breadth doesn’t leave a whole lot of room for depth, and that’s where Exotic Encounters comes in.

            There are all kinds of reasons why you might not want to use a monster stat-block straight from the core rules. For one thing, if your players have a habit of browsing through such books, or are long-time veterans who know the basic ins and outs of most fantasy staples, you may need an unusual stat-block just to throw them a curve ball and teach them that they can’t count on their out of character knowledge to take all the mystery out of the game. Alternatively, many GMs can recall a time when they wanted to make use of a certain monster in their game, only to find that it was a few CRs too high or low for what they had in mind.

            Exotic Encounters takes a single, iconic monster, and creates three new variants on that theme. These variants aren’t simple tweaks, and are more than simply advancing or removing Hit Dice, though that occurs as well. Each of these three variations on the monster’s theme has a specific, flavorful goal in mind, and a role to play, and their statistics entries are gently massaged in order to make them fit those roles. Further, each of these variants comes with brand new specially-crafted special abilities, which are unique to Exotic Encounters and not found anywhere else.

            This particular installment of Exotic Encounters focuses on the mysterious manticore. These creatures of ancient persian mythology have been portrayed many different ways throughout the centuries. Though they always bear the body of a lion, and usually the face of a man, details like wings, tails, and horns have varied wildly. The regal manticore, introduced in this book, takes the more majestic, non-winged form favored in the middle ages (though it is no less monstrous for doing so). The razor manticore, by contrast, bristles with natural weaponry, gaining a deadly spiked horn, and the ability to use its teeth to gnaw opponents, to devastating results. Finally, the poisonous manticore has the deadly scorpion’s tail that many have come to expect from manticores in other media, but which the standard Pathfinder manticore lacks.
