The natural progression of travelers between the more dominant settlements of Gondra developed two perpendicular roads that converged at the location of a natural spring. The crossing of the two trade routes, the presence of a water supply, and the cover of the small woodland provided a logical choice for a settlement.<img src="http://geekpunk.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/11/Crosswell_ALTORY_700.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " data-size="" style="" /><a href="https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/geekpunkcom/crosswell-junction-to-adventure" target="_blank">Crosswell: Junction to Adventure</a> is for use with any role-playing system. While designed with a fantasy flare, with a bit of tinkering the establishments presented here can be used for any role-playing game setting--futuristic, post-apocalyptic, etc. Since Crosswell is a generic role-playing aid, no game system-specific statistics are provided for non-player characters or situations. General descriptive terms are provided to aid game masters in determining how to best fit the provided material into their own game. Specific background information is also provided in regards to how Crosswell pertains to the Adad: Ancient Land of Lore, a new fantasy campaign setting with an old-school vibe. If all goes well with Crosswell, you can expect to see more from Adad: Ancient Land of Lore, including Persandum--an even larger collection of over 80 establishments and locations already in the works.<a href="https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/geekpunkcom/crosswell-junction-to-adventure" target="_blank">Crosswell: Junction to Adventure</a> will be a role-playing supplement of at least 40 pages--more if stretch goals are obtained. The book will include location floor plans designed by Dan Taylor, and illustrations by artist Chris Fason. Crosswell will feature a color cover, and interior pages will be black & white.<img src="http://geekpunk.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/11/crosswell_cover_mock-up.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " data-size="" style="" /><a href="https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/geekpunkcom/crosswell-junction-to-adventure" target="_blank">Crosswell: Junction to Adventure</a> was inspired by the Citybook  "All-System Catalyst Series" published by Flying Buffalo in the '80s. In addition to pledging to our campaign, we highly suggest that if you like quality role-playing game publications that you track these books down as well.We've got a lot of stretch goals in the works to expand the original book contents so please back our project and help spread the word. Go to <a href="https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/geekpunkcom/crosswell-junction-to-adventure" target="_blank">https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/geekpunkcom/crosswell-junction-to-adventure</a> to learn more.
