Support a Gaming Family Facing Eviction


The below GoFundMe was brought to my attention by James Spahn (White Star and far more). The subject of the GoFundMe, as James told me, is:

Chris Travis has run the RPG Gamers Secret Santa tirelessly and thanklessly for years. He's having a shitshow of a situation and could use a hand.

There comes a time when help is needed, not just for yourself but for your family. Chris is having that time.

Support a Family Facing Eviction

It is Saturday night, September 14th, at approximately 10 PM ET. 

The Tavern will match the first $250 raised by members of The Tavern's Community by Monday night, September 16th, at 10 PM ET. The window is short because Chris has a brief time window to correct his violations.

Comment below if you donate or, if you wish to remain anonymous, email me at tenkarsDOTtavern at that gmail thing with your donation amount. Please feel free to spread the word.

Deal of the Day - Monstrosities (OSR Creature Book)

My favorite book from the Swords & Wizardry Days at Frog God Games is Monstrosities. I have two copies of it in print. Excessive, I know, but it IS that good!

Today's Deal of the Day at DTRPG is Monstrosities. Usually $24.99 in PDF, it is on sale for $10 until tomorrow morning.

Monstrosities thundered onto the OSR landscape when it debuted in 2013. Ten years after its first appearance, Monstrosities is back and better than ever with over 500(!) monsters.

Are you tired of seeing the same old boring monsters in your campaigns? Fear not, for the ultimate monster compendium is here again! And it's a monster of a book, pun intended.

You can never have too many monsters! No matter what kind of campaign, there are foes galore to stock its wildernesses and dungeons, even the unknown depths of its mysterious oceans. This is a compendium that contains the monsters from the rulebook and many monsters from the First Edition of the original roleplaying game, but there are hundreds and hundreds of completely new beasts. This book has everything you could possibly need to spice up your game.

So, what are you waiting for? Get your hands on this book and start unleashing an army of monsters on your unsuspecting players. Who knows, they might just thank you for giving them a challenge they'll never forget. Or they might curse your name as they run for their lives. Either way, it's sure to be a wild ride.

Note: This is a 2023 revised printing of the original Swords & Wizardry monster book, updated with errata, hundreds of illustrations, and twenty more monsters for your OSR game.

Kickstarter - JOHN CARTER OF MARS® THE AUDIO SERIES w/5e RPG & Woola Plush



An audio drama starring SEAN PATRICK FLANERY, TIM RUSS, BRUCE BOXLEITNER, and TOM BAKER with RPG, CDs, books, prints, and Woola plush!

Imagine my surprise when one of the creators behind the John Carter of Mars The Audio Series reached out to me to set up a potential appearance as a guest on one of the Wednesday night live streams. Then, imagine my further surprise when I found out there was a week left in the Kickstarter, and I had failed to schedule said appearance. Yep, the last few weeks have been… hectic in the Tenkar household.

Well, I’ll be backing the John Carter of Mars The Audio Series. Over the last few years, I’ve become hooked on audiobooks and audio dramas. It's my preferred method of consuming fiction these days.

Backer levels start at $25 for the audio series and go up from there.

John Carter, science fiction’s original and greatest hero, returns in a multi-cast audio drama starring Sean Patrick Flanery of Young Indiana Jones and The Boondock Saints in the title role, and co-starring Tim Russ (Star Trek: Voyager), Bruce Boxleitner (Babylon 5, TRON), and Tom Baker (Doctor Who).

We're also offering a role-playing game supplement compatible with both the Fifth Edition of the world's most popular RPG, OSR ("Old School Revival"), and Pathfinder Second Edition rules, a digital download of the audio drama, a double CD set with Frank Frazetta art, a foldable map of Barsoom, limited-edition novels published in English and native Barsoomian (Martian), and the first-ever plush of John Carter’s loyal companion, Woola™!

BackerKit - Worldographer 2025 (World Mapping Software Plus)


I've been using versions of Hexographer / Worldographer for the better part of a decade, and I'm excited to see what the latest version of the Worldographer software offers.

You can back Worldographer 2025 for 60 bucks, and it should release before the end of 2024.

If you haven't heard of Worldographer and its predecessor Hexographer, Worldographer is a map-making program that lets you create and edit world and region maps; city and village maps; as well as dungeon, building interior, and other battlemats, plus cosmic sector maps.

What makes Worldographer different from other map-making software?
  • It installs to your computer: Unlike a web app, if the company goes out of business or if you're just on a bad connection, you can keep using it. Use it on Windows, Mac OSX, Linux, or anything that supports Java (it is written in Java, but has native installers for the most common platforms).
  • Worldographer has many built-in generators. Want to create a world? Just choose a few settings and it creates one in seconds! Or generate a region, city, village, tower, shop, dungeon, and more! The results are fully customizable.
  • Have a specific world or region in mind? Start a blank map, then rough in a fraction of the terrain. Next use our "Terrain Wizard" tool to fill in the rest of the map and edit the result.
  • It doesn't just help you create and edit the map.  It also creates data about the world or city. For a world, it will generate a few bullets for each of several cultures, nations, and religions as well as details of cities, villages, forts, and other points of interest.  For a city or village, it generates a list of residents or staff/patrons/prices for a tavern or store.  All the data is fully editable.
  • It can also generate locations of interest for a sandbox or hex crawl style campaign.

Humble Bundle - Transformers RPG



I am not a huge Transformers fan. The first movie was alright, and I remember the syndicated cartoon, but I was a bit older than the target audience, and I NEVER owned a Transformers toy.

Deal of the Day - Troika! The Science Fantasy RPG



Today's Deal of the Day at DTRPG is Troika! The Science Fantasy RPG. This sweet little game plays well and fast and would likely make for a fun convention game - now that's an idea!

Until tomorrow morning, Troika is on sale for 2 bucks (marked down from its usual 5 bucks in PDF). 2 Bucks! That's an impulse buy! ;P

Troika! is a complete yet wildly open role-playing game. Players can expect to fly through mystic space, get lost in infinite cities of the gods, and meet strange & wonderful people all the while using a robust and familiar game system. 

With just one book and a couple of six-sided dice you'll be able to provide years of adventure for you and your friends. Once you're ready for more there is an abundance of material printed by the Melsonian Arts Council and Troika!s huge number of third party publishers and fans.

Inside the book you will find:

  • A fully automated character creation system that generates exciting starting points for players to build upon
  • Weighty lists of spells and enemies to encounter
  • A baked-in plane-hopping setting which draws you into the world and allows you space to build upon its sturdy foundations

Backerkit - Netcrawl (Cyberpunk RPG)

I remember my first experience with the cyberpunk genre, reading Gibson's Neuromancer. It wasn't what I expected—actually, I'm not sure what I expected—but I was excited. Then I saw that GURPS had a Cyberpunk sourcebook and an RPG titled Cyberpunk 2020, and I had to grab both. I never ran them, but I must have read that sourcebook a dozen times and the RPG at least that many times.

Seeing that Netcrawl was funding on Backerkit brought back memories of my initial exposure to Cyberpunk. It looks like it is time for Cyberpunk again inn the Tenkar household ;)

Did I mention that Netcrawl is compatible with the DCC and MCC RPGs? Wait that means it's also compatible with Weird Frontiers. The mashups are endless and come to mind...

Netcrawl RPG is a TTRPG about adventuring inside a computer system. Everyone goes in, seconds pass in the meatspace as players spend hours conquering a cyber-dungeon - together. 

Netcrawl RPG uses the d20 System and Dungeon Crawl Classics RPG rulebook that can run as a cyber sidecar to your current game or as a stand alone game with little or no notion of an outside meatspace world. 

Inspiration for Netcrawl RPG is drawn from William Gibson's seminal cyberpunk novel, Neuromancer, among many other works of science fiction and cyberpunk.

Kickstarter - Warlock Knight (DFRPG)

Holy crap! I almost missed this! I always snag Gaming Ballistic releases on Kickstarter, as they are all fantastic regardless of system. 

Warlock Night is a "programmed adventure" (can be used as a solo). It's 20 in PDF, 30 in PDF plus Foundry files, 40 in print plus PDF, and 60 in print, PDF, card, and Foundry VTT files. Oh, and you can snag prior titles in the series, too. 

Warlock Knight is a programmed solitaire adventure for the Dungeon Fantasy RPG, Powered by GURPS. It is designed to serve as an introductory adventure, with characters starting at 150 points and growing through the adventure to approach the usual starting 250 points as presented in the Dungeon Fantasy RPG Box Set. Warlock Knight can be played with or without a GM, and is extendable into an ongoing campaign.

Warlock Knight is a conversion of David's excellent version for The Fantasy Trip to the Dungeon Fantasy RPG. It is designed to introduce the Isle of Sedra setting, in the same manner that Saethor's Bane serves to introduce the neighboring Isle of Elazar.

Designed to showcase and teach the capabilities and options of the Dungeon Fantasy RPG, three martial characters engage on a quest to regain their lost titles through adventuring.

The characters start at 150 points - substantially fewer than the 250-point characters that feature in the Dungeon Fantasy RPG. This capability level is fully supported by the Delvers to Grow modular character build system: These characters start roughly halfway between "Journeyman" at 125 points and "Master" at 187 points. By the time the adventure finishes, they should wind up right about at starting DFRPG levels.

The adventure is much longer than the prior solo release by Gaming Ballistic for the Dungeon Fantasy RPG: Saethor's Bane. Enough so that to keep it convenient so that the books lay flat on a table during play, the material is divided up into two volumes, broadly speaking "The Adventure" and "Supporting Cast." The digital file will consist of a single file, with the two volumes presented sequentially - that will keep hyperlinks straight!

There are no stretch goals, and all the art is already in hand. When the campaign ends, it should be ready for PDF distribution, with print, cards, and digital support material all ready with good speed.

Bundle of Holding - Skullkickers

I'm a massive fan of the comic book format, and it looks fantastic on my iPad. Yep, I refuse to buy physical comics these days, as it's simply a waste of money and space to store them. I've snagged many a great bundle on Humble Bundle and found Bundle of Holding a great place to catch Knights of the Dinner Table digitally at a very affordable price. 

Well, color me surprised to find Skullkickers as a current bundle at Bundle of Holding. I'd hear about Skullkickers here or there from other gaming community members as a "must-read," but I had never encountered it in an affordable digital format before. Bundle of Holding has 1100 pages of Skullkickers for less than 10 bucks.

Adventurer! This all-new Skullkickers Bundle presents the rowdy fantasy-comedy comic book series Skullkickers by Jim Zub, Edwin Huang, and Misty Coats. Skullkickers stars hard-headed mercenaries Rolf Copperhead and Rex Maraud, who kill monsters and cause havoc in their endless search for money, fame, and adventure. The twisted trail Rolf and Rex follow is littered with troubles aplenty: patchwork zombies, bloodthirsty faerie folk, pirate crews, giant rain weevils, a neat-freak Goo Elemental, cross-dimensional bar fights, and the Deep Thool, among many, many other perils. For lovers of fantasy, action comedy, ridiculous violence, and the kicking of many skulls – for every tabletop roleplayer who likes a good hack-and-slash adventure – Skullkickers is Dungeons & Dragons by way of Deadpool. And gamers will enjoy the prefaces to these collected volumes by Robin D. Laws, Steve Jackson, Tracy Hickman, and other RPG gaming luminaries.

This all-new offer gives you the entire 34-issue, 888-page run of Skullkickers published by Image Comics (2010-2015) in six full-color, DRM-free .PDF volumes – Skullkickers Volume 1: 1000 Opas and a Dead Body, V2: Five Funerals and a Bucket of Blood, V3: Six Shooter on the Seven Seas, V4: Eighty Eyes on an Evil Island, V5: A Dozen Cousins and a Crumpled Crown, and V6: Infinite Icons of the Endless Epic – plus the anniversary special Caster Bastards and the Great Grotesque – a US$58 retail value for just $9.95.

New Release - Humans! Humans! 1st Edition (For Monsters! Monsters!)

When word came down that Tunnels & Trolls was in the hands of Rebellion, I was hopeful that T&T would be back in print, fairly quickly. Alas, that doesn't seem to be happening anytime soon.

I was happy and excited to see that Ken St. Andre retained the rights to Monsters! Monsters! I was glad to see it updated and reissued. Sadly, it didn't cover humans and other traditional demi-humans.

Well, Humans! Humans! takes care of that for you. Humans, elves, dwarves, and demon dwarves are on the menu :) Humans! Humans! is currently on sale for 4.99 in PDF.

This supplement to the Monsters! Monsters! rules written by Ken St. Andre, gives details on how to create, train and equip human characters in the Monsters! Monsters! RPG and also includes how to add special abilities to human characters like vampires, avatars, and other enhanced humans. This book introduces new enhancements for humanoid characters like Professions (similar to Classes), Skills and Special Abilities. Explains training, and gives advice of running Avatar humans Like Vampires, fallen Angels, and other beings hiding or trapped in human form.  

Also covers Elves, Dwarves and Dwon, along with guidance for other human-like characters. Includes a list human supplies, armor and weapons (including guns.) Plus a new map reveals where the various humanoid groups live on Zimrala.

State of The Tavern Keeper - Summer 2024

As has now been stated recently by two of my doctors, my cardiologist (heart) and my nephrologist (kidneys) I need to lose weight. While I'd like to think I can do so by simply doing low-impact cardio, the truth is I need to change my eating habits. By intention, so does Rach, as I do all the cooking, and cooking for two is the same as cooking for one.

And we've been doing it, and doing well with it, for the last two weeks. Konjac noodles for Italian dishes, salads with grilled chicken, stir-fries with frozen veggies, low sodium soy sauce, and yet more grilled chicken. Sit down Chinese food with brown rice and light on the sauce. And yes, even some fast food - tonight was Checkers, but no fries (first fast food in 2 weeks) and only because this afternoon was all pear-shaped ;P

Increasing our walks with the dog - number and length, of course, is good for the three of us - Rach, our doggie, and of course, myself. 

So, if I get a bit extra cranky, here at The Tavern, in its various incarnations, or on social media in general, now you know why.

In any case, down about 4 pounds in just over a week and a half. I'll take it :)

Kickstarter - The Shucked Oyster: A Cursed Brothel for Shadowdark RPG

A third-party supplement for Shadowdark RPG to add untold chaos to your local town.

With Venger's abrupt self-removal from the world of OSR publishing, The Shucked Oyster: A Cursed Brothel for Shadowdark RPG Kickstarter suddenly stands out. This is the type of content one would expect from V, based on the title alone. Alas, it ISN'T from Venger, as he doesn't much like Shadowdark, but damn, it would have been one hell of a crossover ;)

The Shucked Oyster Kickstarter is available for 14 in PDF, 24 in PDF plus soft cover POD, and 34 in PDF and hardcover POD.

Designed for use with the 4-time Ennie Award Winning Shadowdark RPG and other fantasy role playing games, this supplement provides an iconic drop-in location for any town or city in your campaign. The Oyster is a cursed brothel that is routinely destroyed and rebuilt after freak accidents set it ablaze! Included, you will find a slew of wild and crazy NPCs, new magic items, expanded social mechanics, unique dungeons, and enough adventure hooks for an entire campaign!

Indiegogo - Forest of Spores (OSE, C&C, & 5e)

The hamlet of Jensenville woke to a forest of mushrooms that sprang up overnight right outside their village. What's worse, the mushrooms are expanding, absorbing homes and building into their midst. The villagers need help before they are overrun. And that won't be long given how fast new mushrooms keep sprouting up.


What terror awaits in the fungus forest? Heroes are needed to venture inside...but will they return?

Forest of Spores is Rachel Marsh's first work for Frog God Games. It's funded on Indigogo and then some, and Frog God Games has a solid history of publishing its projects on time.

Forest of Spores is 12 bucks in PDF and 25 in POD and PDF.

Here's hoping your heroes are just what the residents of Jensenville need! 

Will they push into the forest's depths where fungi grow wild? Where other creatures wait to stop their mission? And how will they react to the mushroom-people making a new home in the dark nooks of the forest, completely unaware of the villagers' plight?

And worse still, something else waits in the forest, a threat to humans and mushroom-people alike. It's already killed a number of the mushroom-people, and it is more than happy to welcome the adventurers (aka fresh meat) into its killing ground.

Forest of Spores can be played as a standalone adventure, or it can serve as a lead-in to further investigations into the mysterious and dangerous Under Realms.
