OSR Christmas - Day Six - CE 8 - Goblins of the Faerie Wood - Print + PDF - DCC RPG
Its Day Six of OSR Christmas. Before we get to today's festivities, let's find out who is the recipient of yesterday's awesome gift.I would do a drum roll but that doesn't work so well on a blog post. Oh well.Keith Sloan - congrats. Email me at tenkarsDOTtavern and we'll get you hooked up.Now for today's gift. We are giving away the Goblins of the Faerie Wood (Print + PDF)
Lo, the enchanted forest wherein lives the goblins and faeries beckons… will you heed the call? Now you can, with Purple Duck Games’ Campaign Elements 8: Goblins of the Faerie Wood for Dungeon Crawl Classics! Whether “questing for it”, seeking enigmatic items like the weird of Sorthal, or just stumbling into a thin wall between The Lands We Know and the World of Faerie, entering the Faerie Wood of the Goblins will be a memorable experience. Your DCC players can meet King Ifhane of the Red Hoods, roam the Goblin Field and sample its wares, ask dangerous questions of the Gray Ones, or seek the advice of the Ogre Sorcerer… al at their peril!
CE 8: Goblins of the Faerie Wood is suitable for a 0-level funnel for goblin characters- using an exciting appendix for creating goblin adventurers who can be stealthy warriors or tricksome witch doctors, adding a new exciting option for your DCC gaming.
