Fierce sea wolves sail their dragon-prowed longboats over the dark waves, and the midnight sun rises above the frozen northern isles! 

The third issue of Cursed Scroll Zine adds the stark isles of the north to your TTRPG game world! Inside its 68 pages, you'll find: 

  • Hoard of the Sea Wolf King, a 0-level gauntlet adventure that takes fledgling crawlers in search of a lost treasure trove of a long-dead king!
  • The Isles of Andrik, mountainous islands ruled by drakes, warrior clans, and the enigmatic Old Gods.
  • Two new classes for Shadowdark RPG: seer and sea wolf
  • Rules for new spells, boats, swearing oaths, arctic sea encounters, and a raid into the unsuspecting Wortwick Monastery!
  • 12 new monsters, including the mythical Valkyrie, an angelic warrior who leads fallen heroes to the afterlife! 
  • Classic, hand-drawn maps and player-safe JPEGs for virtual table tops

Cursed Scroll uses Shadowdark RPG rules, but it's easily compatible with any old-school fantasy roleplaying system.

Quick to run

These are great for running a game on the go. Anytime I find myself playing Shadowdark even on discord, I keep the Player Quick Start Guide on hand. For the basics I need to run, this could be no simpler. While I am not particularly a fan on pregen characters, these are done on excellent card stock and a quick easy reference to get any table running. The Quick Start DM guide also comes with an adventure, one not found in the CORE rules as well as one two items unique to Shadowdark.

Lost Citadel of the Scarlet Minotaur was both fun to run and play and these adventures are the hall mark of Kelsey Dionne who has been a life long TTRPG player.

The perfect way to introduce your RPG group to shadowdark

I have the books for the complete Shadowsdark rules and experience in hardcover along with other terrific tools and zines. But the quickstart set was the perfect way of introducing my gaming group to Shadowdark. It beautifully gave them an easy and fun launching point and with simple tools to get them going as players and me as a GM. It has remained afterwards as a great table reference for the players. What a blast we had with included adventures.

Great quickstart guide

Clear, concise and elegant. All things we want in a quickstart guide. After reading, I am now actively trying to convince my gaming group to try it!!! I've ordered the full rulebook, I am way too curious now.
