This issue features 28 pages of content. The zine is professionally printed by the fine people at Best Value Copy. Additionally, I will send a pdf version of the zine to the email address attached to your order!
This issue's contents include:
- A version of Sanguinia inspired by the Gothic fear of feudalism’s oppressive excesses.
- A new background for characters: penny dreadful writer.
- Two adventure seeds you can use to craft scenarios set in Ravenloft: the grim possibility of a war between Dracula and Strahd and a campaign framework based on stopping a malefactor from resurrecting the Darklord of Barovia after his demise.
- Two nonplayer characters for use in your games: Reverend Krast and Sister Vulcra, two witchfinders corrupted by fanaticism and zealotry.
- Two additional factions to Ravenloft from my home campaign and offers an alternate take on the Vhage Agency detailed in Van Richten’s Guide.
- Ideas for sinister spiritualists you might create as characters for games set in the Domains of Dread.
- A table that generates Dark Secrets for the characters in your campaign and suggests mechanics for making those secrets matter.

- Cover art by Michael Gibbons.
