April 15, 2022 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Don’t need all your D&D to be Eastern European fantasy? What about Slavic?

Free Player’s Guide available as Mesoamerican mythology-inspired Lost Lights campaign setting launches

July 14, 2021 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Side Quest Press has today launched Lost Lights on Kickstarter, a Mesopotamian and Mesoamerican mythology-inspired RPG setting for 5e and Pathfinder. There’s also a download link available for the Player’s Guide (too big, too generous to embed) that provides an up-close view of the game for potential backers. In the meantime, you can pledge or watch […]

Irish mythology adapted for D&D 5e: Heroes of Tara Player’s Guide

July 10, 2021 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

The vibrant, outrageous, and romantic world of Irish mythology has a wealth to offer, with tender-hearted beauty and nerve-shaking passion in equal measure.

Norse myths inspired Svilland launches on Kickstarter

September 4, 2018 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Geek Native has a free to download Svilland campaign demo which seemed pretty popular. The 5e setting is now live on Kickstarter, and I can see it attracting some big name backers. It’s far too early to tell whether they’ll make their £4,680 target, but you can follow the progress on their campaign page. [Back […]

A Mostly Accurate Norse God Family Tree [infographic]

June 24, 2015 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

I rather like this infographic of norse mythology and gods from Korwin Briggs at the Veritable Hokum. You don’t often find family trees that feature magic cows and people with nine different mothers. (Via Geek Art Gallery)

Know the monsters of Earth [infographic]

April 28, 2015 by Andrew Girdwood 2 Comments

Travel booking site Venere made a spirited attempt to display just some of the mythological monsters of the world on an infographic. My first impressions were all positive.

Vanja Todoric’s fantasy art based on Serbian mythology

June 7, 2014 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Vanja Todoric is an artist behind some powerful images. She’s a freelance artist who draws in Novi Sad, Serbia and you can see more of her art on her blog or at CG Society. Todoric sometimes illustrates for books of Serbian Mythology or fairytales. I think they look stunning.

Fall of Gods is a personal project from Rasmus Berggreen. Based in Copenhagen, Berggreen is an arist who works at MOOD and creates universes for film makers, game designers and even toy companies. Sounds like a dream job. In Fall of Gods the story tracks the warrior Vali and his journey through the giant lands […]
