Harn: New Free Adventure Available for Download

[Dan Bell]

Also, below is a post from rpgnet which lists the other downloads which have been released this last year:

There is a lot of free stuff available for download at Lythia.com.
Most of it is PDFs and easily usable in any medieval RPG setting, especially low-magic, high-detail ones. Harnic fanon tends to have very high production values with excellent maps, plans, and art that can be reused in other places.

At the upcoming HarnCon, there will be the usual annual awards for best fan-produced material. The current nominees for best new fan-produced material (=free downloads) include:

Good stuff, Harn has always been a favorite of mine, great maps and a really high quality fanzine "Thonahexus."

Thanks. Feel free to pass on the info to anyone you think may like it.

Hey Dan,

ENWorld only allows publishers to post stuff in the Publishers forum, so this is technically an "illegal post".

Is Lythia.com considered a publisher? IIRC, only NRC or Columbia Games (depending on your thoughts on their feud over ownership) could be considered the publisher, no? From what I can gather, lythia is a fan site.

In any case - ever since I found Harn, I've really enjoyed the detail and flavor - the only thing that is comparable in that regard is probably Kalamar. And the maps...

Hi 3catcircus,
Lythia.com is a fansite. Work is "published" in that it is given away free, done in many cases by the freelancers (both have no inhouse employees) who work for NRC and CGI, and with the NRC/CGI artists and mappers with the same general page layouts.

Yeah, the maps 1st drew me in also. I began using harn stuff to drop in my own GRUPS world or to fill in the gaps in the D&D worlds I was using.

Dan
