We close out "Savage Fantasy Week" - that accidentally-begun theme week that I just decided to roll with as Wednesday hit - with a book that's immensely cool and very useful for any genre of Savage Worlds you want to run. At the same time, it certainly hits the mark for your fantasy gaming as it presents the ultimate destination for those fantasy heroes who seek the greatest challenge of all - battling the forces of Hell head-on!
CODEX INFERNUS: THE SAVAGE GUIDE TO HELL
A holy warrior fighting back infernal beasts on the precipice of a fiery pit. Cloaked figures chanting an incantation to bring forth a nameless beast. A man standing at a crossroads bartering with a demonic temptress for fame and fortune; the price of which is his very soul.
Advisers to kings and queens, dictators and presidents, whispering lies at the behest of their demon lords with the fate of nations resting on whether or not the advice is heeded. A scientist examining a strange artifact found on a distant planet that, unbeknownst to him, opens a mysterious gate to a nightmarish dimension when a button is pushed.
These are just a sampling of the myriad images which come to mind when we think of Hell. Codex Infernus: The Savage Guide to Hell, brings those images to life and shows you how to plug them into your games, regardless of what genre you love to play!
In this book you'll find:
This one has an all-star cast of writers and designers - Darrell Hayhurst, Darren Pierce, Monica Valentinelli, and Richard Woolcock among them - and is a gorgeous, well-researched presentation.
It's also worth noting that the core Savage Worlds rules are on sale right now for a crazy-low price of $4.99 - half off!
