Kickstarter - Emberland: the Zine of an Evolving 5e TTRPG Sandbox


 I know it says "5e" in the very title, but apparently, it is also for the OSR:

"Seven zine issues, each adding new territory, NPCs, creatures, and adventures to the evolving 5e/OSR TTRPG setting of Emberland."

So, OSR, quirk maps, and only 20 bucks? The Emberland Kickstarter is a no-brainer for me!

Built with both 5e and OSR in mind, inspired by Lovecraftian Horror, Oz & Wonderland, and a bit of The Muppets... it's Emberland.

Incorporating both a points-of-interest-hexcrawl and story-filled campaign hooks, the Emberland sandbox is designed to provide GMs with an open world that will grow and respond to player choices, and also be a setting where specific storylines (if the PCs are inclined to follow the hooks) can lead to detailed adventures. Built around a hex-crawl "points-of-interest" format, the Emberland zines will build out a world full of random encounter tables (changing with each zine to reflect the different terrains and level advancement of the characters) add specific adventures (including a Mega-Dungeon: The Work Pit), and introduce a growing number of NPCs and factions that will be at odds with the PCs.
