We’re happy to announce we’re once again taking part in Free RPG Day 2019 on Saturday, June 15th, and this year’s free Pelgrane giveaway features adventures for the forthcoming The Yellow King RPG and 13th Age.
The Yellow King RPG – The Doors to Heaven
Behind Iron Doors, a Gateway to Doom!
Paris, 1895. A sensation-seeking band of art students confronts supernatural invasion from an alien realm. A play called The King in Yellow circulates in the city’s secret, decadent circles, twisting the ordinary and corrupting the sacred. In the students’ latest case, a fellow student’s disappearance draws them to the Notre-Dame Cathedral. Legend claims that its iron doors were sculpted through a pact with the devil. Behind this tale the investigators uncover a stranger truth, replete with hooded figures, an unearthly plague, and the terrifying creatures that inspired the gargoyles.
13th Age RPG – Assault on the Dungeon of the Pogonomancer
The renegade dwarf wizard has returned from exile, and now his army of thralls lays siege to the fortress of his ancestors. Doom and kinstrife threaten the lands of the dwarves! There’s but one chance – if a small band of heroic adventurers can brave the passage of the Underworld, they could strike at the wizard’s secret sanctum where he plots with his mysterious allies from the depths!
Battle through the tunnels of the world below! Navigate weird perils! Face fiendish horrors! It’s a race against time – if you tarry, the dwarves on the surface will most certainly perish!
Above all, don’t get entangled – for the dungeon of the Pogonomancer is certainly one hairy situation…
WHO is the artist here? Amazing work!
This is the wonderful Phil Stone. Check out his art here: http://www.philstoneillustrations.com/
Thank you!!!
It’s the 15th June, not the 5th.?
You’re so right! Updated~ Thanks!
I don’t suppose these will be available as PDF? There aren’t any stores near me, or even in Germany, taking part in Free RPG day.
It will not be available as a PDF. I’m sorry to hear that no shops are taking part in Free RPG Day in nearby!
That’s a crying shame. I would love to check out the King in Yellow scenario.
Now that we’re a month or so past Free RPG Day… are there any plans to make this available via PDF *ever*?
Oops, stupid question. I was looking at the date of the post, not the date of actual Free RPG day.
(Alas, I’m not going to be able to get to a game store on the 15th. I live too far from all of them, and have other things on the calendar that day.)
Just curious… did this not happen in the end? (I don’t see Pelgrane Press listed on the Free RPG website for this year, so I thought I’d ask.)
(I suspect there’s not going to be an event at the one shop in my country where this event is usually held, so my curiosity is largely academic, I suppose.)
Unfortunately, another company has bought the assets of our printer and is transitioning them into their business. They haven’t printed our books and can’t tell us when they’ll be printed. At this point we have to assume they will not be available for Free RPG Day.We apologize for the inconvenience.
Ah, I’m very sorry to hear that!
That’s sad. Once they do come in, will you be selling them on the site? Any hope now of a PDF version?
Hey Rob, we’ll be giving print copies to backers of the Yellow King RPG Kickstarter, and to our Gen Con GMs. We won’t be selling them, but we may make the PDFs available later in the year.
Oh, cool. (I backed YK, so this means I’ll get one. Alas, can’t afford GenCon.)
I am a retailer. Just got the box and your product was not in it!
Hey Ali, sorry about that! Our printer went into administration, and wasn’t able to deliver our books in time. Drop us an email (support@pelgranepress.com) if you’d like to arrange to pick up copies.
