The Silver's Jungle
In this TAG WHAP!
pulp adventure, the player characters are summoned to Bogo, a port city
in the western Belgian Congo, by the governor himself to investigate a
series of murders, believed to have been performed by a rogue
silver-back guerrilla and then resolve the situation.
The Wobble Machine
This is an
introductory scenario for TAG's
WHAP!
pulp adventure system. Heroes are charged with investigating mysterious
raiders who are stealing artifacts from across time, and capturing the
technology they use to do it.
Imp
Hollow
Between
the dusty crags of Claag Harragk and the fierce jungles of Djung is the
forest of Afyr. The Wilder Folk slipped into its deep shadows
and
thick hedges as the trolls, elves, and sliths came forward. It is in
Afyr that our assembled group of heroes has heard about a place called
Imp Hollow and a key to many ancient secrets of the world of Elder.
Straits of
Sub-Light
The test
of the Icarus X-1's experimental Beagle Drive went disastrously wrong
when it collided with another faster-than-light ship crewed by a
hostile other-dimensional species. Can you find a way to bring the ship
back into normal space so the Oort Corps rocket men can do their job?
Loar: Lair
of the Minotaur
(in
development) Diseased
gnolls and kobolds raid the city of Loar under the banner of the
Minotaur. What is the Minotaur digging for, deep in the mountains? Why
is he stealing children? Is this savage bull-creature really just
another humanoid bandit, or is there something more ancient and
terrifying behind the horned mask?Loar is a mid-level adventure for the
Peryton Fantasy RolePlaying game.

The Qalidar setting for True20 takes players to a city built into
gigantic ruins orbiting a hole in time and space, and surrounded by a
terrifying metaphysical storm. It includes new
creatures and new rules, including a system for alchemy and
rules for
traversing the Storm, along with a dark and edgy
setting unlike any fantasy world you've seen. For more
information, click here.
POW!erful
Tales is an anthology of stories set in the environs of Beta
City, your typical rust belt town with typical
problems of urban crime and corporate corruption. Complicating these
problems are super-villains and of course the occasional alien
invader or slumming god.
Wildly
Heroic Action Pulp (WHAP!) rules for Tom's Adventure Gaming, suitable
for Western, Steampunk, High Adventure, and other cliffhanger staples.
Coming at you just a little bit faster than a glacier (hopefully), the
Ice Age that never was, is back!

About Perytons
 A peryton is a mythological
creature, usually described as a cross
between a deer and an eagle. They are cruel predators of humanity, not
only devouring their victims, but mangling their corpses and wallowing
gleefully in the remains. Scipio's army reportedly encountered perytons
near the Straits of Gibraltar and found their weapons to be useless
against them. The creatures have been connected with Atlantis and the
fall of Rome, and might be the spirits of travelers who died far from
their native lands. This legend may account for their distinctive
shadows, which show not the monstrous forms of their owners, but the
outlines of human beings. |
