Read the GM advice in EB. I like that module, if you're looking for others I have a free one called The Positronic Library. It's a dungeon, basically.

I've also had great success with the Alchemist's Repose by Ben Milton and EB.

The forms are using Alegreya. The sheet was drawn by Francesco Zanieri so they use whatever font he made up?

Cool. I'm updating them today to better fit the page (among other minor tweaks) if you wanted to wait a day.

I've created printable (and editable) pregens of all 20 Cairn 2e backgrounds. These took way longer than they should have.

Writing Modules For Cairn Writing adventures for Cairn RPG is very similar to writing for other OSR systems, with a few additional tweaks. Before reading further, see my previous post...

As a follow-up to last week's post about writing modules, I wrote another post on writing adventures for Cairn, and how that might be different than other OSR systems.

That is the intention. You give your all for combat but there is a death spiral if you start losing energy. The standard model doesn't make for interesting play on repeated attempts, at least in playtesting.

All of this is still in flux, of course. So maybe it'll change.

I've updated my diceless resolution system to include combat, magic, and classes. I'll probably tweak it some more in the future.

For now it just needs a name. Any suggestions? I was thinking something along the lines of "Fate & Fingers" but less terrible.
