DRUIDS & DRUIDISM
Long overshadowed by their clerical brethren, Druids and Druidism levels the playing field with their divine colleagues by providing eight new prestige classes, more than twenty new feats and twenty-five new spells for druids of all levels. In addition to these features, the supplement thoroughly discusses and details the druid's relationship with nature

Contained with its pages are rules for manufacturing herbal remedies and toxins from plants, harvesting venom from poisonous animals, fashioning tools, armor, shields and weapons from natural materials and acquiring the devotion of an animal companion. This 70-page supplement also focuses on the druid's relationship with others of his kind, detailing the costs and ceremonies needed to found, create and maintain a druidic circle. Druids and Druidism breathes fresh, new life into an often neglected character class.

Druids & Druidism was written by Thomas Knauss (author of Ink & Quill, a free download at the Bastion website); Edited by Jamie McGraw; Interior Art and Cover by Kevin Yancey. Two versions are included (one with borders and one without) for easy printing. 70 pages; full-color. $7.99. D&D is available through RPGNow at:

OATHBOUND: WRACK & RUIN PRE-ORDER NOW AVAILABLE

The great City of Penance is the oldest settlement on the Forge, literally containing millions of years of history in its deep hulking mass. Though nearly forty million souls call the city home, less than half of one percent of the city's locations are inhabited. The bulk of the Pedestal is a madly stacked and sprawling ruin, only superficially explored by the relentless rafters and treasure-seekers of the surface world.

Every home in the city has a hundred others lost beneath it, and every city street stands atop an incredible three-dimensional maze of corridors, alleyways, and crawlspaces - a maze where time has left nothing unchanged, eroding and distorting the framework of magic and even the laws of physics themselves.

Long past the grasp of any human control, the ruins of Penance have become a true landscape, vast, beautiful, and unforgiving, with their own unique ecosystem and their own set of hazards and comforts. Strange plants and creatures have evolved in the eternally darkened streets below the city, and prey upon those foolish enough to step out of the city's gilded cage of civilization.

Wrack and Ruin is an essential guidebook for anyone intoxicated by the forgotten secrets of the past, or by the potential power lost within the great city's crumbling majesty. Don't leave your Bloodhold without it!

The website looks well-organized now, congrats!

Btw, "Norse Gods" is labelled as "Ink & Quill" on the "Downloads" page.
 


I bought Druids and Druidism. Nice work :)

I'd like to see Herbalists and Alchemists as a PDF at some point. I have the book, but I'm always looking to get a copy of the book in PDF form.

I'm glad to see that Arms and Armor is going to have a PDF version. I own at least one copy of the book (maybe two, I forget), and I'll be getting that PDF when its ready.
 

Alchemy & Herbalists will be the next PDF release after Arms & Armor, then Spells & Magic and Oathbound. We've got a lot of requests for electronic versions of our products, and we have plans to continue to make them available.
