Open the Doors of Dimensia
A d20 depth crawl zine launching on Backerkit's Zinetopia on February 1st.
Doors of Dimensia is a 68 page solo crafted depth crawl adventure generator in a fracturous portal realm from Wilderwhim. Though it is technically system agnostic, it is broadly applicable to OSR and other d20 fantasy systems being built off the back of Knave 2E's design philosophy. It is best used as an interlude adventure in a campaign that takes adventurers from one plane of existence to another. There is no canonical way to approach the content within its pages, each adventure into Dimensia is unique, much like a run in a roguelike video game.
Get lost in this D20+Depth Crawl through the portal plane of Dimensia. Megalithic Wonders await amidst time twisting puzzles, aliens cosplaying Earthling philosophers, and machines that can view the very end of reality itself! In this freaky lil' hand assembled A5 OSR Toolbox zine the discerning Far Traveler will find:
- D100 Megalithic Wonders such as city sized circuit boards, fissures created by titanic greatswords, & many mind bending non-Euclidean affronts to the gods of spacetime
- D100 Magical Doors such as Ultan's 30ft Living Painting to shove your disgruntled adventurers into
- D20+Depth Crawl locales to undermine the very laws of physics with including The Occultic Temple of Pythagoreanism, The Bureau of Extradimensional Affairs, The Library of Baebylon Catalog Nexus!
- 20 Wyrd afflictions like Logorrhea, Jamais Vu, and Spaghetti Fingers
- 7 Quirked Up Random Tables to kitbash reality warping encounters that make your player characters do timewonk nonsense like literally chase their past selves
- 3 Psychedelic Quest Hooks leading to as many Boss Fights like the enigmatic Triumvirate of Crones pictured below
- Ultima, The Last Colossus, she who has watched intergalactic empires fall
- A Pepe Silvia mystery board leading to THE TIME CUBE
- The Mad Hatter (who has been force femmed into Madame Hatter lol)
- &&& a multiverse's load more!
