I want to blow up your table.
Okay, that's a bit much, but I hope you understand - this zine might kill your D&D characters.
"Catastrophic Issue" is my new monthly zine project to make and post a booklet filled to the brim with different ways to throw your precious tabletop roleplaying worlds into disarray in the monthly theme.
The zine series centres a main mechanic, that of Undercasting & Overcasting. These are juicy & tantalising fruits for your players to pick - a chance to use magic they shouldn't have... at great risk to themselves. If they fail - well, that would be a catastrophic issue; you see, each month includes a new random table of arcane disasters to torment your characters & scar the world.
And I can't just leave it at a list of lousy troubles - we need tools, toys, & terrors that tie into our tables & themes, too!
This month's theme:
The Five Agents
Wood, Fire, Earth, Metal, & Water
This free / pay-what-you-want booklet includes:
- 58 pages of "research notes", game material, and wizard scribblings.
- A brief overview of how a 5 Agents system of East Asian tradition might work.
- A system & reasons to cause magical catastrophes in your games.
- 100 possible catastrophes related to the 5 Agents for uncareful spellcasters.
- 8 new spells (from cantrips to 3rd level spells)
- 2 mundane items
- 1 monster
- Bountiful digital doodles & illustrations by Cao Thái Bảo, based on historical Nguyễn Dynasty motifs.
I hope you enjoy and I'd really welcome any & all feedback!
