Crypt breakers in the employ of King Fathmu IX, you are given a map and a simple task.

Fathmu’s eyeless scryers say they have seen traces of Verhu in the catacombs beneath the ruined Hangman’s Church, deep in the Valley of the Unfortunate Undead.

Gain entry to the ruins, map the tunnels beneath it, and return to Schleswig with whatever you can pull out of the ground. If you also find signs that point to the resting place of HE, so much the better.

This adventure contains themes of suicide, self-harm, cannibalism, mind control, ritual sacrifice, bodily mutilation, and religious horror.

Proceed with caution.

Play through the same endless night as you try desperately to figure out what’s happening and how to stop it.

Absolutely fantastic piece of MÖRK BORG adventuring and world building here. The origin of wickheads, a land of oil and the world’s saddest goblins. Read it back to back as soon as I got it and wish I could experience it for the first time again.

– Johan Nohr, creator of Mörk Borg.

To the south, and to the west, to the place where land becomes liquid and oozes into the Endless Sea. Far beyond Targ-Dungel and the festering swamps of the Rotlands lies Fattvëlland, the Great Slick.

This, they say, is where the giants died. This oil is their blood, their liquid bones, their final gift to the land – a gift taken by darkness, now. The waning light of the cowering sun dares not shine here. Those who bring flames find themselves burning as stars, hot and bright and all too brief, returned to smoke and ash from whence everything came.

This is a foul land. But beneath the peat and oil and mud, it’s said, burns a flame that can never die. The Great Wick drinks from the land and births its spawn, those who stumble out into the darkness bound in iron and burning with the rage of a dying land. They spread into the darkness of the dying world, shunned and raging, their goals known only to themselves and the Wick that trimmed them and cast them out.

None who leave this place return. None, until now. And you must go with him.

A wild wickhead solicits you for help. His wick is nearly gone, and with it his memories. Escort him into the vast oily swamps of his homeland and rekindle his flame.

A Waning Light is an adventure for Mörk Borg.

The Moss Mother’s Maze by Chris Bissette

Over the course of a single weekend I watched all of Ti West’s movies. Then I decided to write a zine about them.

This is that zine.

16 pages, saddle stitched, 170gsm uncoated paper, colour throughout

​The Still-Beating Heart Of A Dismembered King

​Deep in the forests of Sarkash a fell rhythm can be heard. In a forgotten tomb beneath the shifting soil, something festers and grows.

Venture into the depths, recover the heart of the True King, and bring an end to the Shadow King’s reign. Or fail, and bleed, and die.

The Vermilion Throne by Chris Bissette

Read the text only version here.

Deep in the heart of the forest an ancient, slumbering god begins to awaken. Pilgrims have travelled from far and wide, following falling omens and signs known only to them, desperate to be the first to bear witness to its awakening and to pledge their fealty – or to destroy it before it can sink its paws into the fabric of reality once more.

A holy war is about to be waged beneath the quiet of the trees. Which side will the players take?

Vine Heart is a system neutral adventure for your favourite dungeon fantasy game.

In The Bluelight is a frozen dungeon crawl adventure by Chris Bissette.

Check out the text-only version here before you buy!

The days are fleeting out on the ice. The days are fleeting everywhere, now, but out on the barrens of Kergüs they are even further lessened. Time is thin here. It stretches, twists, freezes. Shatters.

Miseries grip the world, inevitable and unending. The Doomsayers scream that they can’t be stopped, that the end is nigh, that the seventh Misery will come and the world will burn. Verhu’s word has never yet been wrong.

And yet.

Yet.

Maybe there is hope out there in the ice, where time rolls like sludge. Where the end is, perhaps, not quite so inevitable.

MÖRK BORG is a blackened artpunk doomsday rpg  about miserable bastards and heretics enduring a bleak, dying world.  It’s a doom metal album of a game. A spiked flail to the face. Rules  light, heavy everything else. It’s made by Pelle Nilsson of Ockult  Örtmästare Games and Johan Nohr from Stockholm Kartell, and published by  Free League Publishing.

MÖRK BORG is copyright Ockult Örtmästare Games and Stockholm Kartell.

In The Bluelight is an independent production by Loot The Room and is not affiliated with Ockult Örtmästare Games or Stockholm Kartell. It is published under the MÖRK BORG Third Party License.

In The Bluelight is an adventure designed to be played over two or three sessions. You’ll need the MÖRK BORG core game to play it, unless you want to convert it to another system. I literally can’t stop you doing that and have very little interest in trying.

The adventure will be published as an A5 saddle-stitched softcover zine. Internal pages are 135gsm silk and the cover is 250gsm silk with matt lamination. If we raise £2000 there will be silver foil stamping on the front cover. This is the same specification as Treasures Of The Troll King and it makes for a beautiful zine.

In The Bluelight takes characters deep beneath the barren wastes of Kergüs, where an ancient artefact that holds the power to stop the Miseries afflicting the world lies buried beneath the ice. There is treasure frozen into the icy walls, too, and if you were to extract it you would return home rich. But the thaw that opened the Ice Vaults will not last forever, and if the characters tally too long they’ll find themselves trapped inside the glacier for the rest of their short, shivering lives.

The adventure itself is a sprawling dungeon over three levels packed full of NPCs, weird encounters, and a subterranean maze haunted by the oozing remnants of a third prophetic basilisk. It comes complete with encounter tables for the long trek across the ice fields of Kergüs, and new scriptures from the Arkhian Theurgy that replace the Calendar of Nechrubel while inside the dungeon, making the ice shift and change as the players spend more time in the Vaults.

The dungeon portion of the book mimics the layout of Rotblack Sludge, the introductory adventure found in MÖRK BORG, so it’s familiar and easy to use at the table.
