LoreSmyth have a knack at knowing what DMs and GMs are looking for. This time, it’s cults. GMs need cults as these dangerous and often sinister organisations to make great villains for stories.
The Eindhoven based publisher asked Kickstarter for €15,000 to fund “Remarkable Cults & Their Followers” and hit that target quickly. Today, there are 22 days still on the campaign and more than €105,000 pledged. You can see the latest total and join the cult, er, the project from the pitch page.
You can use Remarkable Cults for D&D or any other fantasy RPG, too. So if Pathfinder, Warhammer or even GURPS (as LoreSmyth point out) is your thing, then you’ll be welcomed into the circle of acceptance anyway.
Remarkable Cults & Their Followers is the ultimate GM sourcebook for roleplaying fantasy cults, nefarious factions, and evil organizations. This brand-new book brings you exciting, intriguing, and complex evil factions, as well the tools to create your own. This includes villainous leaders and their cronies, rumors, new gameplay ideas, services, information on working for and against cults, gaining ranks and followers, and much, much more. This system-neutral book is not just about religious cults, but instead delights the imagination with a wide range of sinister organizations and factions to add to your game.
The book will be about 120 pages and follows in the step of Remarkable Inns and Remarkable Shops and LoreSmyth have confirmed a fourth coming next year.
If you don’t have time to use generators to flesh out a cult, the supplement comes with eigh pre-made showcases. It also has rules for when (not if) the players take over the cult’s running or found their own!
