Adventure Havens Series
You know what they say about the best laid plans...
There's more to a roleplaying game than endless dungeon crawls and monster hacking. Your players have a whole world to explore, after all. But how do you plan for every possible thing the players might want to do? With the Adventure Havens series, you won't have to.
Each installment of the Adventure Havens series presents twelve ready-to-use related locales, complete with brief histories, important NPCs, and story seeds. Pick the ones you want to use and quickly fold them into your existing campaigns to add a new level of depth to your fantasy world.Mythos Series
In most fantasy worlds, the gods are not philosophical ideals to discuss. They are living, breathing entities that take an active role in the world. Their clerics attend to the populous. Their paladins battle evil. Blackguards seek to corrupt the righteous to follow dark masters. Divine agents come to the prime material plane to offer assistance to heroes, or to vanquish foes. The Mythos series lets you slowly build a unique, flexible pantheon for use in your own campaigns.

Not everything is black and white. Sometimes, everything is a shade of gray.
"Labels, nothing more. It is semantics, not morality, that distinguishes good from evil. A boy takes up his father's sword. He swears to fight his people's enemies and serve his god. We call this 'good' should he be a human follower of the Light. Should he be an orc following his gods then these same actions are 'evil.' Why? Because we are humans and enemies of the orcs. Do you imagine the orcs call themselves evil? And what do you think they call us?"
The Book of Silvered Shadows explores the mysteries of those that walk the path between good and evil, law and chaos. With unique feats, spells, magic items, prestige classes, and more, unlock the secrets of those that follow the path of neutrality in a world where everyone expects them to pick a side.
Designed for 3.5/OGL game systems.
What is scarier than a horde of zombies, more destructive than an ancient dragon, and more vindictive than a Drow Matriarch? A politician at election time.
Politicians is a slightly tongue-in-cheek supplement for 3.5/OGL game systems that presents the Politician Class as both a useful NPC class or a completely viable PC support class. This 16 page supplement provides a detailed overview of the class, how it would fit into a fantasy world, how to run elections, and more. Also includes twenty-three unique feats and four sample NPCs.
