A new, expanded, OSR-ised, prettified edition of Joseph R. Lewisโ€™ Ragged Hollow Nightmare which was rated among The Best by Tenfootpole. Joseph Lewis hit a perfect balance between the classics of dungeonverse fantasy and the whimsy of the folk tales we love so much (as testified by our Folklore Bestiary. we released last year), adding a dash of dreamworld strangeness and a pinch of body horror to spice up his brew. We did our best to respect his recipe when adding our extra material (about 30 pages of it). We worked with Joe and Li-An (the perfect artist to give life to spooky Ragged Hollow and its strange surroundings) to make the best module we could: a solid introduction to old-school gaming for both players and gamemasters. And for the veterans among us, it also makes an excellent, full-fledged campaign starter. Nightmare over Ragged Hollow is a sandbox adventure centred around a quaint town at the edge of the kingdom. But however quiet life in Ragged Hollow is, the town lies between places where you shouldnโ€™t be traveling alone. Places like Gloam Wood (โ€œA witch or two lurk there!โ€), the Bleak Mountains (โ€œIโ€™m told there are bugbearsโ€ฆโ€) and their infamous Mount Mourn (โ€œHome, they say, to cursed Dwarven ruinsโ€), not to forget the Wailing Hills (โ€œBandits on every road!โ€). Thereโ€™s even a haunted house by the river (โ€œThat mad inventor riddled it with traps!โ€). But only when an impenetrable dome of golden light materialises around the Temple of Halcyon (โ€œHey, my kids go to school there!โ€) do things really get out of hand. Some selfless heroes (or, failing that, a bunch of greedy neโ€™er-do-wells) should really get involved. One town with three adventure mini-sites Three small dungeons One 50-room dungeon Three hexes with 16 detailed locations Two groups of potential allies or rivals Sixteen pre-generated characters One deadly countdown! Written for the Old-School Essentials (OSE) rule system

The Temple of Tesh-Yatra is a setting-neutral dungeon delve for a party of 6th level adventurers, inspired by the classic funhouse dungeons of yesteryear. The dungeon takes 6-10 hours to fully explore. It features a high proportion of non-combat encounters: puzzles, exploration, and the occasional deadly centrifuge. The ungodly fusion of a mad scientistโ€™s lab and a planar temple, the dungeon includes an encounter that can launch your players into the Nine Hells โ€“ for a price... The Temple of Tesh-Yatra includes two new constructs to use in your game: the sinister Maimers, and the enigmatic Skorverra; as well as a new magic item: the Amulet of Tesh-Yatra, an artisanโ€™s dream! The Temple of Tesh-Yatra also comes with a VTT battlemap (transparent PNG format). The Temple of Tesh-Yatra was originally set in the Outlands, as an extraplanar dungeon. But given its self-contained nature and the Temple's age, it is well-suited to any wildnerness, and would work equally well seeding a hex crawl.

A deadly storm shipwrecks the passengers and crew of the Jenivere upon infamous Smugglerโ€™s Shiv, an island off the coast of the jungle realm of Sargava. If theyโ€™re to have any hope of escaping the notorious piratesโ€™ graveyard, the survivors will need to band together to outwit the isleโ€™s strange beasts and legendary menaces. But can the PCs unite the swift-to-squabble castaways, especially when several seem to have mysterious goals of their own? And does Smugglerโ€™s Shiv hide secrets even deadlier than its desperate denizens? This is part one of the Pathfinder Adventure Path "Serpent's Skull", but can be played as a standalone adventure that lasts approximately 10 four-five hour sessions. Great for first time dungeon masters. This is not a seafaring adventure. The PCs are shipwrecked on an island for the entire duration. This adventure ends with (hopefully) the PCs finding a way off the island (reaching level 3). It is therefore a great starting adventure with a definitive conclusion. After this module, you can continue with part two or change into your own homebrew.
