Loosely connected to the Empty Village lair from last month, The Wilding Call is aimed at more experienced PCs. With wildlands and ruined villages, this lair is great for any region of the Northlands where dark creatures lurk just under the treeline. A werewolf death cult waits you, patrons!

The kobolds are thrilled that Warlock has survived to the point where booklet #10 is coming together and going to print in February!
In fact, we are so excited that this will be our largest booklet to date (at least 36 pages) with cover art by RPG legend Larry Elmore and with new material by some familiar names. More details to come in the next few ...

The branches of the World Tree are vast and twisting, the wisdom of the runes always enigmatic. For the patrons of Warlock, though, some mysteries are perfectly clear--including the titles of the section for our upcoming booklet.
This one is going to print shortly and should be in your hands before the New Year (depending on where you live). Strong art for this one as well; thank you as alw...

Some elves just can't be trusted with a scepter of power—and this Lair is about one of them. Though there is a link between this Lair and the Bramble King, they can be played independently. This adventure brings us many joys and terrors, including one of the most disgusting fey circles ever conjured.

Sometimes it's fun to send characters somewhere horrifically slimy and frankly kind of gross. Like a froggy swamp full of muck and mire and brain leeches. Especially brain leeches--a brand-new monster that seems like a classic to us!
