Veilgrave by Morgan King and Philip Gelatt of the film The Spine of Night and Severed Books have teamed up on an adventure filled with strange drugs and fiending skeleton warriors.
Writing by Philip Gelatt and Morgan King / Art and Design by Justin Sirois / Cover by Mark Riddick
Your debt to the Silver Clutch of Schlewsig is colossal. The only way to repay it is to undertakea dangerous journey into the Sarkash Forest in search of a certain quantity of a certain drug known as Kairos. Kairos is the drug du jour among the rich and decadent of the cities but all that’s known of its source are dark rumors and unsettling murmurs. It’s said that gangs run the Kairos trade out of the forest. It’s said they protect the source of the drug with abhorrent violence. It’s said that lurking in the heart of the wood is a secret most horrible.
This sandbox adventure for use with Morkborg or other RPGs contains startling adventure hooks, memorable characters, bespoke customization rules (including player character skeletonization mechanics), and multiple dungeons ripe for exploration. Just us beyond the forest of Sarkash the mysteries of the Veilgrave await illumination. More info here.

ROCK AND ROLLERS - TABLE G
🎸 Baltimore, are you ready to ROCK?
Rockers and Rollers is the tabletop roleplaying game of sex, drugs, and rock and roll, where you and your friends form the rock band of your dreams (or nightmares). Think “This is Spinal Tap” and every cheesy, clichéd rockumentary, only dialed up to 11. It’s silly, stupid fun for 3-6 players and a game master (the Manager). R&R is a hilarious, rules-lite mix of roleplaying, storytelling, improv, and ridiculous mouth noises. It’s easy for anyone to jump right in and play, even if they’re not familiar with traditional RPGs. Note: Due to the immature content of R&R, this is for adults only.

Let’s rock! 🤘🏼
Assemblage: A TTRPG of Worldbuilding and Worldbreaking - Table H
Together, become a weird ecology. When the world shatters, how will we survive? Assemblage is a science-inspired eco-fantasy TTRPG by Nat Mesnard and Scryptid Games in which 2-6 players use prompt cards and a guidebook to collaboratively build the story of an interdependent ecosystem on the verge of environmental disaster. In Assemblage, you play not as a single character, but as an entire species. As each player imagines their own unique and fantastic creatures—deep sea leviathans, magical bacteria, insect cryptids, psychic cats, sentient moss—you will craft the story of an ecological assemblage: a group of species tossed together in a strange habitat, finding interdependent ways to survive. Following along with the guidebook, and taking inspiration from your deck of prompt cards, you’ll come to understand the history, shifting present, and possible futures of your assemblage.Then it will be time to encounter an epic environmental disaster—and discover how your assemblage responds.
