Desolation of the Dread Lich

"A gentle whisper on the wind invites passersby to wander from their woodland trail. In a peaceful glade, a treehouse rests in the boughs of an ancient oak. Inside, a library filled with magical books transports readers to the distant past. These arcane tomes conceal the sinister legend of a powerful necromancer."

Inspired by my favorite childhood book series, Desolation of the Dread Lich is a tabletop roleplaying zine containing three micro-adventures where players encounter the spirit of an ancient necromancer. Seeking resurrection, she drags unwitting heroes on a journey through time to recover the fractured remnants of her soul. Along the way, Players will encounter prehistoric perils, fortune-hunting freebooters, and a sanguine sovereign.

This .pdf file can be printed out  on a 8.5"x11" piece of paper and folded into a trifold zine for your own physical copy!This game can be played alongside any of your favorite tabletop roleplaying games.
