Necrophagous Nights – Complete Edition
Advanced Fantasy Supplement by G.A. Mitchell
NECROPHAGOUS NIGHTS for Journeyman, Expert, Master is a complete gothic horror expansion for Advanced Fantasy, transforming your campaign into a world of crumbling castles, restless graves, and the creatures that rule both. NECROPHAGOUS NIGHTS facilitates campaigns of brooding dread and creeping corruption, whether your table wants a single haunted evening or an entire saga spent in the shadow of an undying evil.
Who is NECROPHAGOUS NIGHTS For?
- Game masters who want comprehensive rules for running gothic horror campaigns, from a single cursed castle to a sprawling domain ruled by the undead.
- Players who want to hunt monsters, or become one, in the nightmare darkness of the cosmos.
Key Features
- Four new heritages: Dhampir, Flesh Golem, Hollow Man, and Revenant – for characters born of the grave, the laboratory, the absence of a soul, or an oath too stubborn to let the dead lie.
- Two new classes: Inquisitor and Resurrectionist, for those who hunt the unnatural and those who create it.
- Four Dark Mastery talent trees: Ghoul, Lich, Lycanthrope, and Vampire – allowing player characters to walk the same dark path as the monsters they once fought, fuelled by a new resource: the dark mastery die, earned through blood, flesh, moonlight, or forbidden research. Vampire characters may further specialise into one of four rival clans: Drakul, Lotusphage, Nosphoros, and Vrykola.
- A full Dark Domains subsystem: Use this for running pocket realms of true evil, including new rules for Frightened and Stress conditions, altered talents and spells that behave differently within a domain’s borders, and generators for populating them with settlements, inns, curses, and NPCs at a moment’s notice.
- Four new Dread Strongholds: the Catacomb, Lycanthrope Den, Necropolis, and Vampire Lair. Each dread stronghold has its own actions, assets, events, and a full multi-level depth-crawl dungeon ready to run (for when your new players foolishly decide to head straight to the vampire’s castle in session 1). Two new Mundane Strongholds, the Inquisitorial Sanctum and Flesh Laboratory, give the witch hunters and hubristic scientists somewhere to call home in turn.
- Over twenty new spells themed around necromancy, fear, and the hunger of the grave, alongside a selection of unique Dark Artefacts: named magical relics with their own history, drawbacks, and reasons better left forgotten.
- Expanded Grindhouse Mode support, including new Origins: Body Snatcher, Outcast, Constructed Person, and Malfunctioning Servant, and a complete Grindhouse adventure, Escape the Sepulchre of the Sanguinivore, ready to throw a table of expendable level 0 characters straight into the dark.
- A significantly expanded bestiary of undead, lycanthropes, and other nightmares, ready to populate your dark domains or stalk your players wherever else they may wander.
