Delve Deep into the Haunted Earth of Strang Beorn – Now Live on Kickstarter
A Celtic mythology-inspired dungeon crawl for MÖRK BORG / OSR

There is no greater stain than that left by betrayal. It is wise to steer clear of these forsaken places, for there are things in this world that make their bed in the sorrow.
Strang Beorn is a haunted hillfort dungeon delve, compatible with MÖRK BORG and easily adaptable for your favourite OSR system. It’s the newest project from indie TTRPG team Grave Goods, and we’re so excited to share it as part of Zine Quest 2025.
This 50+ page adventure is set in a world of warring clans, hungry monsters, and the capricious gods that lurk in the shadows of every battlefield and roundhouse. Fully illustrated and featuring unique tables, locations, creatures, and storytelling elements, Strang Beorn is inspired by the darkest depths of Celtic folklore and mythology.

The setting: Written by Sam Tempest and edited by Kate Eddy, Strang Beorn’s grimdark setting is a long-abandoned stronghold, the site of a great betrayal where a monstrous new lord is building its own domain.

The illustrations: Each page Strang Beorn features unique artwork, hand-drawn by Will Tempest in inks and charcoal to bring the cursed Berserker, the heretical Druid, and the other long-lost souls of the stronghold to life.

The book: We’re going all out for Strang Beorn – this is a limited-edition print run of premium clothbound hardbacks with embossed details, selective colour, and even a ribbon bookmark. Heavy on atmosphere, we want to create a book that’s as fun to flick through as it is to play.
With two other projects under our belts, The Flood Bell Tolls in Saint Magnus and Frogmen, Strang Beorn is our most ambitious undertaking yet. We’re so grateful to the backers who have joined our troupe so far, and for all those yet to come.
The Strang Beorn Kickstarter campaign is running throughout February as part of Zine Quest / Zine Month 2025.
