Forty pages of characters, setting information, notes, and adventures that didn’t make it into the pages of Darren Watts’s Golden Age Champions. Darren has been taking copious notes over twenty years of running Golden Age Champions campaigns with dozens of players, and on opposite ends of the country (San Francisco and New York, respectively). These additional notes were simply too large to fit into a single volume, with GAC itself coming in at over 300 pages!
 
Thus we present you with a variety of material dépareillés we would have liked to have completed and included, but could not. Together it forms an excellent snapshot of a Golden Age Champions campaign as a work-in-progress. In some cases, such as the description of the demonic villain Mardoom-Thah or the music of the 1940’s, there are merely notes or incomplete sketches; but it’s still a wealth of valuable and interesting information! The contents breaks down into three sections: The Justice Squadron, 1940’s American Society and Culture, and Mini Campaign. For the latter section (a two-part mini campaign) At the Top of the World is nearly complete, while Attack of the Aesir remains a brief (but useful) outline.
 
Enjoy! And remember: they weren’t called the greatest generation for ‘nuthin!

Ghosts, Ghouls, and Golems is a roleplaying game guide to those darkness-dwelling creatures of folklore and myth for Hero System. Emphasis has been placed on presenting these creatures as close to their traditional descriptions as possible - although a few “cinematic,” Hollywood-inspired versions of some of the more popular entries are included. In this book you will find information on vampires, lycanthropes, ghosts, ghouls, wights, and zombies, as well as more obscure creatures like the old hag and the witiko. There are dozens of “monster” sheets, each representing a basic creature template you can further customize as desired. Finally, there are a number of sheets for such infamous beings as Dracula, Jack the Ripper, and the Beast of Le Gévaudan.
 
The zip file for this product includes separate character sheets for Dungeons & Dragons 5th Edition, the Hero System, Pathfinder, Mutants & Masterminds, and Savage Worlds.
