Three system-agnostic old school style adventures to use in your favourite TTRPG.

The Abbot Trilogy

A system-agnostic old school zine triple feature: Abbotsmoore, Bitterpeak, and Steelhollow.

Crawl through a fetid swamp and explore the otherworldly technology of a long-forgotten civilisation, hoping to meet the Troll Priest. Survive the tundra in search of the mysterious Demonsbane. Get across the desert to the Steelhollow and the god that is supposedly trapped within.

What is The Abbot Trilogy?

The Abbot Trilogy is a collection of three system-agnostic adventures; Abbotsmoore, Bitterpeak, and Steelhollow. We have created three adventures to run in your favourite tabletop roleplaying game. Adventures designed for ease of use and to ensure weird and wonderful expeditions for your party. Link each adventure and play them as a larger campaign or run as a one shot. We designed them with re-playability in mind, giving the Gamemaster adventures that feel fresh to run with each group.

While these adventures lean heavily on fantasy tropes, we have interspersed them with science fiction elements. You will find alien remains, laser pistols, and wrecked starships when entering these adventures.

The Abbot Trilogy Features:

Three fully developed adventures, each lasting at least 2-3 hours.

Each adventure has its distinct, yet connected, themes and atmosphere.

Magic items, clues, quests, and NPCs that link between the adventures.

Hex and point crawls, weird monsters and unusual social encounters.

Simple stat blocks for ease of use with any TTRPG system.

Custom cover and interior art for each adventure.

Clear and flavourful text for fluid running of games at the table.

Have you played KNAVE ?

By Ben Milton/Questing Beast

KNAVE is a rules toolkit for running old school fantasy RPGs without classes. It leans into the OSR style of play, with no classes and level-less spells.

the assurance "nobody is judging you" is straight up false... people ARE judging you and you have to find a way to be ok w it

[giritina]

My methods as someone with schizotypal (feeling of constantly being judged disorder)

1. Even if you do something embarrassing AND someone judges you AND talks about it to others, you really haven't done anything but improve their life. People like bonding over interesting stories. If I'm at the mall and I look strange or act weird, people at best don't care and at worst have a little story to tell their friends.

2. Talking about people is part of life. You probably have done it to others. What comes out of people's mouths when you're out of the room doesn't necessarily reflect their true feelings. Getting words out of your head can be how you check if they're true. Many people might say something mean so they can come to a more neutral understanding. We often think "said behind my back = true feelings" but it isn't true.

3. If someone is actually consistently talking behind your back in a cruel, mean way and being two-faced to you, that's actually them being in the wrong. You aren't responsible for that. You don't have to burden yourself worrying that you're doing something that would make someone act this way. You can operate as though everyone is being upfront and honest and not make concessions for passive aggression.

4. If you talk behind people's backs a lot and operate in a judgemental way to others, try cutting back on that behavior. It honestly helps you feel less scared of others talking about you.

5. If your friend group talks a lot behind people's backs and judges or harasses others for fun, try to discourage that behavior or step away. Seeing people obsess over others isn't good for your health, and those people's behavior isn't normal. Same with hanging out on dramamill websites etc.

6. If you actually concretely find people actually talking behind your back a lot, analyze why. It could be that it's bullying, but it could also be that people don't feel safe telling you their feelings. Think about how you treat others.

7. There's always a risk of being judged and hurt by others, but the rumination on the possibility of it being the case is going to hurt you. The goal should be to live life in the moment and deal with cruelty when it actually emerges. Constantly being on guard for tragedy doesn't actually make it any easier, it just makes you really tired.
