Under Western Skies: A Scarlet Heroes Weather Events Zine

Image
Just a quick note to say I've released a new zine, this time for Scarlet Heroes. It's called Under Western Skies and it's a series of weather events tables more suitable for a western European-style fantasy setting. There are tables for Spring, Summer, Autumn and Winter instead of Wet, Cold and Dry seasons. You can download it for free or pay what you want from both Drivethru RPG and Itch.io. https://www.drivethrurpg.com/en/product/561032/under-western-skies https://lonehorizons.itch.io/under-western-skies

It took me months of working on and off but eventually I had a massive Google spreadsheet filled with strange creatures.

I even made a little system for generating three types of travelling merchant players could encounter and determining what they had in stock, so that's in there too. Needless to say, with some minor conversion these encounters will work for any OSR-style game, not just BFRPG. I've now released it on itch.io:  https...
