Hexmoon Sabbath: A Folk Horror Doom
 |
Hexmoon Sabbath: A Folk Horror Doom is a supplement detailing three witches¸ who call themselves Hexbrides ¸ and a brief campaign set-up that gives an outline of how to use them in a campaign arc. In Powered by the Apocalypse games¸ this is what they might call a "front":
The core of any standard adventure¸ scenario or game session in
Dungeon World ?ows outward from the fronts to the players; the
fronts have their impending dooms¸ the players react¸ and in the space
between¸ you play the game to find out what happens. (Koebel and LaTorra¸ Dungeon World )
The Hexbrides can be plugged into any setting¸ but I've included notes on how to use them with the Umberwell ¸ Cinderheim ¸ and Krevborna settings published by Dolorous Exhumation Press.
The supplement includes:
A one-page introduction to the Hexbrides. A one-page sketch of a campaign arc that gives an example of how they might be used as antagonists in your games. Each Hexbride gets a four-page section that describes the witch herself¸ her coven¸ her tower fortress¸ her unusual weaponry¸ and a random table of adventure ideas. A one-page sketch of where you might locate each Hexbride's tower in the Krevborna¸ Cinderheim¸ and Umberwell settings. A list of musical and cinematic inspirations to take your cues from if needed. The supplement's format includes a pdf for screen reading as well as the files necessary should you wish to print your own hard copy.
