Anyway I had a point to add this anyway!

The sequel to the Master of Shadows campaign that I co-wrote to Liber Fanatica 8 is finished. And this time around we are lucky to have enough time for play-testing.

So I’ll be needing (hopefully) at least two groups to run it before the end of the year. The GM is provided with the scenario and reference material needed but due to editing times needed they will not be as spectacular to look at as the final version of the coming LF9.

If you’d like to help the Liber Fanatica in this way.

In other news:

I added Nisses’s Character Sheet on the Downloads (and would like to add that he is the fastest proof-reader I’ve worked with). One other character sheet was sent to me also but that one got pulled back.

At Strike to Stun forums DagobahDave started on a fast NPC creator that is worth looking at even in this WIP state. And if you haven’t go now to the Magic the Gathering site to check out the superior art of the Innistrad block (find the pictures in the posts under “headlines”. It’s almost as good as the work of the Liber Fanatica artists.

A fellow gamer on Strike to Stun also pointed out some errors in my ancient Caradué-document. I’ll be fixing them when I find the time. For some reason I can’t find his/hers nick or real name anywhere. Thanks anyway!

I was also asked to write a review of a new eBook (The New  Death and others can be found HERE and I’d recommend you to give it a look. I bought it already.). I was intrigued to write it but I thought it is not what this site is about and currently I don’t have the time to write as good reviews I would like. So you just have to take my word on this “check it out”!

That’s that. Quite a lot of stuff. And without proper introductions. Oh well.

Once upon a time there where no good alternatives for the character sheet of WFRP3.

And then all of a sudden there are three!

Gitzman’s sheet is still a bit “under construction” but it already seems really good. The other two sheets are Doublehex’s (he has kindly enough allowed me to host his sheets on the Daily Empire) and my own.

So here you go!

Doublehex’s Sheet

(I’ll add the links to Gitzman’s sheet when it is finished but I’m sure you can look out for it at his Gallery.)

It is finally finished.

I actually managed to do the last touches on the Blasphemous Cults 3: The Cult of the Possessed last night but was too tired (and anxious to wake up for a Reckless Dice Podcast) to put it online. But with a two hours of sleep (thanks to my son) and an energy drink I am more than ready to present it to you!

What’s the Cult of the Possessed about?

CotP is an indenpendent sequal to the series started by Sami Uusitalo with his Blashpemous Cults (download it from Strike-to-Stun HERE). It presents a cult of Chaos very different from those seen in current line of products resurrecting an old god of Chaos called Malal. It deals with how the cult is perceived by servants of Sigmar and by the cultists themselves and gives you ideas how to fight Chaos with Chaos.

About this Malal/Be’lakor thing…

I am first to admit that the idea is not exactly my own, original or even canonical. But as it nevertheless made an interesting supplement I really don’t care. The way I dealt with these two beings is not for everyone but I still think it was a valid choice. Certainly after adding some Cthulhu Mythos into the mix too.

For which edition is this supplement?

As I have stated with the one-sheet I like all editions of WFRP and will not put any gaming info on my own works. This frees me from spending time to search different rules for these things so I can use that time to write.

I will say however that the supplement includes references into the Storm of Chaos (as it is quite relevant when talking about Be’lakor). This however should not be a problem and could be presented as visions of future if needed.

For gaming purposes I recommend gamers to check WFRP2 – Tome of Corruption for possessions and exorcism. Sami Uusitalo told me that there’s some similar stuff in FFG’s Warhammer 40K rpg product line.

I would like to thank all of you who helped me with this product whether it was proofreading, editing advises or much needed commentary. Without you I would have lost interest!

As always I would be more than happy to receive comments and suggestions (or even an occasional “hello!”) about the product. As some of you might have noticed I answer to all emails and usually pretty promptly.

Without further ramblings, download Blashpemous Cults III: The Cult of the Possessed

HERE

As rumors go I’ve heard that the LF8 is going to be released during the first week of August (that is any day now!), Sami Uusitalo is writing a little something new too and FFG going to keep a seminar about WFRP during next Thursday!

I’ve also hosted two new files that have been lost from the Chaos Realm that is Internet, The Forbidden Blades and The Theater of the Damned both by Sami Uusitalo and his magnificent team.

edit: Wrote another one-sheet: The Well of Light is a Lovecraftian encounter on a strange farm where knowledge was searched too keenly and an adventure seed about getting two giants drunk. 

As a bonus I added three new adventure seeds.

The Arabyan Knight – DOWNLOAD as PDF

At a coaching inn, an Arabyan warrior ischallenging every male noble who will not turn backto a duel. He is the bastard son of the local baron,who rejects him out of shame & love for his wifebut won’t let the roadwardens intervene. (By: Ovid)

All one-sheet can be downloaded HERE.

Sweet Marrow – DOWNLOAD as PDF

Tired and in need of healing the party come upon a sign pointing down a little path, deeper into the forest. The sign shows a bed, fork and knife and a broken bone dripping with marrow. The town is called Sweet Marrow. The town doesn’t get many visitors and even fewer leave this friendly village. It’s the food. The inn makes a truly wonderful stew, with tender, sweet sauce and meat. (By: Gallows)

The Prisoner – DOWNLOAD as PDF / ODT

The PCs are asked to help release aman from prison. But who can they trust, andwho exactly is being held captive? (By: monkeylite)

edit: The links of the Prisoner have been corrected. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Therefor I’d like to challenge you all to make (at least) one one-sheet.

One-sheets should be just that – an episode in one sheet that can be used as a small encounter, cameo, adventure or even an campaign.

I’m “pro-all editions” I would like to see one-sheets that are stripped from game data (necessary rolls, stat lines etc.) as I believe GMs can decide when needed.

I can also promise to put all one-sheets to be downloaded from my blog Daily Empire (cursed linking isn’t working so check my sig.) if they’re send to me at doc_cthulhu (at) hotmail (dot) com or I’m given the permission to add them to the list. I’m not however in a position to promise anything more than some publicity and (hopefully) a large number of one-sheets as a price for doing this.

A new sub-page for DOWNLOADS was created for one-sheets. You can find my first one-sheet Smugglers in the Sewers there as an pdf and in open office format.

The thread for discussion can be found from FFG’s official forum.

This supplement will not include any character profiles or anything by the terms of rules for that matter. Personally I see them as restraining elements that usually get in the way of a good story. And naturally the would have taken a lot of time to come up which is against he principles of laziness. So no stats.

So if I’m lazy why would I go through the trouble to create this piece in the first place? I’m a firm believer in rpg communities and as I’ve gained quite a lot from fellow players over the years I just decided to give something back. Naturally I already had these written down in Finnish so it was simply the matter of translation and coming up with the layout which is always a nice exercise.

So in hope of criticism and praises I present to you this supplement. Hopefully it’ll give you an element to be used in your games or at least some ideas to be ripped off.

As I’m quite busy right now and this thing seems to be growing every time I try to finish it here’s the draft version which is still lacking a quite a bit of material. For the time being it’ll have to do until I can finalize it.
