I am enamored by RPG zines. I love them and try to collect as many as I can get. They are so personal, so unique, so different from the polished, finished RPG books we more commonly see out there. Their more informal aspect makes the reader closer to the creator, almost like a friend peeking at their secret and personal notes. I love that.
So that’s what I want the Old Skull Zine to be. I want this to be a place where I can share things I am creating, developing, and using at my own table. Sometimes I can put a sneak peek at some new material for a book that is still in development. Some house rules I am tinkering with. And who knows, some stuff people from the community are creating, too!
This first issue, Under the Cover of Darkness, is dedicated to my latest game, Dark Streets & Darker Secrets, an RPG of Street and Sorcery and Action Horror. Here you will find a short adventure to be played with 1st Level characters, a faction to be used both as allies and as rivals of the PCs, a new Archetype, and a new tool to help develop quick relationships between PCs.
You can get this zine in print and PDF at DriveThruRPG.
