[Q&A] Rob Fanjoy (Hollow Lands)

[7:32 PM]Rob/ Sheriff of Hollow Realms: Hi Gang, I’m Rob Fanjoy, Self Publisher of Hollow Realms- World of Adventure. Today we are looking at the Hollow Lands game setting!

[7:32 PM]Rob/ Sheriff of Hollow Realms: Setting Tone: Robert E. Howard meets Heavy Metal (the Movie and magazine)

[7:33 PM]Rob/ Sheriff of Hollow Realms: Welcome to a Dead World!: Lorgath, once forged by the gods to contain the unraveling force known as Taint, has perished after three cycles of ruin. The corrupting of Goddess of Strife and the hubris of the divines and their children shattered the world, leaving only the Hollow Lands preserved by the final sacrifice of the God of Hope and a grim bargain with the 4 immortal Giant Kings. Once‑great peoples—the Elves diminished, the Giants cursed, the Gnomes and Halflings lost—have faded, while Humans and Dwarves cling to fragile remnants of civilization. Now, in the year 417 HL, survival depends on appeasing the Tyrant Kings with yearly tribute of 6,000 souls, as Taint still festers beneath existence, and the wise debate whether Hope’s last gift was salvation or a curse.

[Q&A] Arno Vandenberg (SEVEN: the Modern Horror Tabletop RPG)

[7:30 PM]Arno Vandenberg: Hi everyone, I’m Arno, the GM, designer, writer, and general ideas guy for SEVEN. https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/arnovandenberg/seven-the-modern-horror-tabletop-roleplaying-game?ref=2tl8yl

[7:31 PM]Arno Vandenberg: Seven is a modern horror RPG centered around the idea that Angels and Demons can walk the earth, largely free to do as they please. They manipulate the masses to recruit the souls of the dead to their individual causes. There is no singular entity above them any more that enforces Angels are good and Demons are bad – it’s everybody out for themselves. Humans are nothing but sheep mindlessly following the herd to their own slaughter. But standing in the way are a new breed of humans called The Woken. As one of The Woken, you choose from one of seven Orders, each centered around one of the Seven Deadly Sins and Heavenly Virtues. For those needing a recap, the Seven Deadly Sins and Heavenly Virtues are: Envy – Gratitude Gluttony – Moderation Greed – Charity Lust – Chastity Pride – Humility Sloth – Diligence Wrath – Patience Being one of The Woken means access to the unique gifts called The Rites. There are Seven Rites for each of the Seven Virtues/Sins. The Rites empower you to fight for all of humanity against the Angels and Demons, or perhaps to join with one side or another. Banish Demons to Hell, fly like an Angel and Read the Signs to change your fate. The Rites give incredible powers, but it is up to the players how to use (or abuse) them. Here’s the preview edition as a direct link (rather than jumping through Kickstarter and DriveThruRPG): https://drive.google.com/file/d/1iveuC2rmSUo2rLcjy4IooInogSMz0qr6/view?usp=sharing (done)

[Q&A] Gary Johnson (Dawn of the Eschaton)

[7:33 PM]zerotheory: You can call me zero. I’m the designer for Dawn of the Eschaton It’s a horror survival rpg that is litterally the apocalypse. It takes place in modern day. The PCs are just average people like students, plumbers, accountants, homemakers etc. that has been plunged into this warped environment. The game starts right as the Dark happens. It’s 10:06 a.m. the sun is out, the weather is great then boom complete and total darkness. No more sun, stars, or electric light because electricity at that moment it ceases to function. Then most the population (around 90%) lose their minds and begin attacking everyone and everything they can find. This thins the population out very fast the first few hours. Roaches just seem to have spung up and are now everywhere eating every crumb of food they can find. They’ve also been warped and their saliva is acidic which allows them to eat quickly through packaging and material to get at food. The only sources of light are fire and the occasional glow stick. The Dark itself feels thick and drinks up light not allowing it to illuminate as far as it should. Then the monsters show up.

[7:34 PM]zerotheory: Some inspirations are: • Silent Hill • The Mist • Kingdom Death: Monster • Event Horizon • Berserk • The Evil Dead franchise

Two years ago I realized Spell Scorched and it more than doubled my humble goal on Kickstarter. Now I’m back it, working on a new and updated system. (done)
