Ladies, Gentlemen and Wild Things of all ages, I am proud to announce the Crypts and Things UK Masters Series of adventure modules, coming from D101 Games starting in late 2012 with modules coming every month or so throughout 2013.
The Masters series will highlight the work of some of the best adventure writers in the UK today. Here’s the current line up of eight Masters.
- Simon Bray, one half of Unspoken Word team who brought out numerous Gloranthan adventures/settings in the 90s/00s and co-author of the upcoming Here be Dragons setting/adventure pack for OpenQuest.
- Scott Dorward, infamous convention gamesmaster and horror aficionado.
- Neil Gow, author of the Napoleonic storytelling game Duty and Honour and its nautical sequel Beat to Quarters, which goes out via his small press imprint Omnihedron Games.
- Paul Mitchener, author of Blood of the Gods for Wild Talents published by Arc Dream publishing, co-author of the upcoming Here be Dragons setting/adventure pack for OpenQuest and Age of Arthur an upcoming FATE game to be published by Wordplay Games.
- Phil Harris, convention games master of numerous years and organiser of Conpulsion convention held annually in Edinburgh.

“Masters series”
In Judo (and other sports) they euphemistically call the veterans’ division the Masters. I instantly thought, ‘this will be a series of modules for proper grognards!’
Excellent and exciting news Newt. 🙂
