Is your bookshelf a mess? Do you own so many games they’ve become a hazard? Are your dungeon crawls a disorganized disaster? We were like that, too – so we came up with a solution!

We’re calling it The Shelf File of Holding…for now. Or maybe The Dungeon Shelfie. Or maybe something else. We actually ran a contest to name this thing, but the winner hasn’t been decided yet.

No matter what name it ends up with, our brand new Kickstarter funds a custom-printed shelf file designed for holding adventure modules, hardcover RPG books, and boxed sets. And this gorgeous container features four exterior panels with new hand-painted art by Doug Kovacs!

The shelf file has a 3” wide spine, which is thick enough to fit two big hardbacks, about 25 “skinny modules,” or one to two RPG boxed sets—and it also fits board games that are in letter-sized dimensions. It comes with preprinted spine labels you can use to identify the contents.

In other words, it’s amazingly useful! And the perfect way to keep your games organized on the shelf. Hence the name! …or lack thereof. In fact, we’re going to make naming this thing a part of the Kickstarter!

Every day we will change the title of this project to a new prospective name. Over the course of the project, you will see two dozen possible names! Once the project ends, all backers will be given a chance to vote. May the best name win!

AND FOR THE FIRST DAY AND A HALF WE HAVE A SPECIAL $140 CAMPAIGN LEVEL!

This reward is only available for the first day and a half of the campaign. If you’re willing to help us quickly progress to economies of scale, we will pass on some of the benefits! You’ll receive ten Shelf Files of Holding, at a special cost of only $14 per file instead of $15. It’s a great way to get in on the ground floor of the campaign and maximize your pledge.

And there’s much more to learn about the campaign! Including add-ons (a whole bunch of modules to fill your Shelfie, for example), bonus items, and more! Head on over to the Kickstarter page and read all about it.

Read the title! On May 13, we’ll be releasing a Fantasy AGE supplement for Homeric Age adventures. Inspired by the classic 3^rd Era Trojan War book by Aaron Rosenberg, this 65-page supplement, coming in PDF and print-on-demand, adds numerous new character options, magic items, and special rules for Fantasy AGE.

Note that this isn’t a straight D20 to Fantasy AGE conversion, for the following reasons:

• Timing and Size: We wanted to make sure we could get this done on time, to get in a Fantasy AGE supplement for mid-2021 before the release of the new Fantasy AGE core rulebook, currently in development. We also wanted to make this a smaller book so people would feel they can spend their money on it without feeling like they have to have a full-on Homeric campaign ready. This means we’ve omitted game statistics for Trojan heroes. This also fits Fantasy AGE, whose smaller number of classes combined with talents and specializations mean there are many ways to interpret these heroes.
• The Internet: The internet, and the resources it can bring to your table, have expanded since 2005. This means, for example, it would be redundant to describe history and mythology in ways better served by resources such as Wikipedia and other Web resources.
• 16 Years of Context: We’ve added new context and guidance about how to adapt an era rife with discrimination for contemporary play. For centuries, people have made these legends their own, and by doing the same you don’t violate any kind of “canon,” but follow in the steps of storytellers who changed things to fit their times. We’ve also given much of the original a tune-up to bring forth some of the distinctive elements of the time. For instance, did you know the Trojan War predates the invention of coins? We talk about it.
• Fantasy AGE First: Fantasy AGE is its own distinct system and handles everything from character creation to armor differently than 3e and its successors do. We wanted to make sure this fit Fantasy AGE’s rules as closely as possible.

Okay, But What’s in It?

Here’s a chapter breakdown:

Introduction: A 101 on the material ahead and an overview of the Trojan War.

Chapter 1: Homeric Character Creation: This section includes rules for characters of human (Trojan, Achaean, and others, including Amazons) and divine heritage, before going into a full set of backgrounds and

It is time to return to Lankhmar in the pages of Tales From The Magician’s Skull #6!

Issue #6 of Tales From The Magician’s Skull is now available for pre-order! This exciting issue is currently in layout and scheduled to ship in June. It contains an amazing array of sword-and-sorcery fiction that will thrill the reader, and begins our new series of Fafhrd and the Gray Mouser stories! As we previously announced, we reached an agreement with the estate of Fritz Leiber to publish new authorized stories set in the lands of Nehwon! Over the coming years, Tales From The Magician’s Skull will support the city of Lankhmar and its most famous residents with a series of new stories and novellas that faithfully expands upon the legendary tales originally told by Fritz Leiber—and it begins right now.

Author Nathan Long has written a new short story starring Fafhrd and the Gray Mouser that appears in Tales From the Magician’s Skull #6. This entertaining tale finds the twain engaged in somewhat honest employment in the theatre trade, in order to pursue somewhat dishonest aims involving the sorcerer’s guild, with a somewhat incomplete plan that only Fafhrd and the Gray Mouser could devise.

Of course, that duo is far from alone in the pages of the newest issue. We’ve got some amazing stories that will thrill and entertain from a blockbuster roster of talent.

Let’s look at the full lineup!

STORIES

Calicask’s Woman by John Hocking

A TALE OF THE KING’S BLADE • “I can’t hold them back for long,” gasped the apprentice. His face had gone pallid and sweat dripped from his chin. “Stand by the opening and try to take them one at a time. Perhaps we can… where are you going?!” 

The Feathered Shroud by Howard Andrew Jones

A TALE OF HANUVAR • The water behind the soldier erupted, and Hanuvar lunged past him to jam the pitchfork at a shovel-shaped reptilian head. The tines bit deep, and the dark water reddened.

Guilty Creatures by Nathan Long

A TALE OF FAFHRD AND THE GRAY MOUSER • In the circle, Mouser stared cross-eyed at the tip of Kalphin’s blade, knowing death was coming to him at last.

Shadows of a Forgotten Queen by Greg Mele

I’ve seen a maiden’s veins opened as she is led through the fields, watering the new crops with her life’s blood in honor
