Nicolas Logue's
Blood of the Gorgon horror adventure has shipped to its patrons.
It's definitely not something WotC would ever publish. And I think players are going to have an absolute blast with it.
Thank you to everyone who supported the project, and thanks to Mr. Logue for all his hard work. It's a standout book.
For many years, I’ve had a strange relationship with that notorious nice guy, Mr. Monte Cook. We’ve collaborated on projects like the Dark*Matter campaign setting and the Beyond Countless Doors Planescape retrospective. And Malhavoc Press...
If you haven't heard already, the
ENnie Awards voting booth is now open. Please go and vote for our nominees in the Electronic Book category, and support your
favorite nominees across the board!
Mind you, you don't have to vote at all in categories you don't want to; voting in just the categories you care about most and have the most experience with is probably the way to go.
Nicolas Logue is well known for his horror writing, from the Hook Mountain Horror for Pathfinder to the madness that surely awaits us in the Razor Coast. He's got a knack for disturbing and creepy and fantastic villains.
And now he's blown the lid off that, with
Blood of the Gorgon. I've literally sent the last updates to typesetting, and it will ship to patrons in a matter of days.
In other words, this is your last chance to pick it up at the insanely low price offered before the limited edition goes into the "available to current patrons only" status. So, if you have any interest in a dark urban mystery that will make your players twitch a little, I heartily recommend supporting
Blood of the Gorgon today.
There's a podcast about the
Blood of the Gorgon project available over at the
Tome Show. Check it out and let me know what you think!
Open Design is very pleased to announce that two of its patron-supported projects have been nominated for ENnie Awards this year. Those two are both nominees in the Electronic Product category (as makes sense for primarily PDF products). They are:
Empire of the Ghouls by Wolfgang Baur
Six Arabian Nights, by Wolfgang Baur, David "Zeb" Cook, Clay Fleischer, Jeff Grubb, and Joshua Stevens
Naturally, I hope you
vote for your favorites in this and the other categories, though I fully expect that Monte Cook is going to take the ENnie in this category. For a retired guy, he's quite a juggernaut, and deservedly so.
In the larger scheme of things, it doesn't matter who wins the Electronic Book category. I’m absolutely 100% thrilled to have two nominations in that category, given that Open Design released exactly two products eligible for nomination. It's like we're doing something right....
Congratulations to all the nominees!
