I’m currently working on backgrounds and stuff for my own #aFistfulOfDarkness game. Here are some (low-res) examples.

If you’re doing a aFoD game/playtest on roll20 I’m happy to provide graphics/pictures for your game. Please contact me here or via E-Mail (in[at]monkeyecho.de)

A new map of Mudwater means I started a new playtest for A Fistful of Darkness ( #aFistfulOfDarkness ).

A new map of Mudwater means I started a new playtest for A Fistful of Darkness ( #aFistfulOfDarkness ). We have a posse of Hellstone Scavengers with The Gamble, The Thunderheart, The Speaker & The Outlaw. Great fun in session 0 while worldbuilding and establishing relations with Mudwater’s factions. Excited players standing around the table and lots of “this is so cool!” shouting is always a good sign 🙂

Interesting twists on Thunderheart and Speaker because both have a southern/atzec/inca twist in their background. I’m really excited because I see lots of playerbooks in action I did not see before. Really looking forward to the next session.

roll20 character sheets for #aFistfulOfDarkness

I hope you like them and I hope to inspire a playtest of the hack at your table 🙂

Just did session 0 of A Fist Full of Darkness with my friends!

Just did session 0 of A Fist Full of Darkness with my friends!

We decided to make a rag tag group of Hellstone Scavengers, including The Shot, The Thunderheart, and The Gamble.

Attached below is the map we made for our version of Mudwater (yes we have some punny names for places!). We had a lot of fun making up the world and cool things in it. All in all, the world building was superb and got a lot of conversation going!

The Shot was part of a traveling nomad tribe, but his people were murdered by the giant scorpion demons plaguing the land. He escaped and made it to Mudwater, seeking his fortunes as a scavenger and putting down the scorpions whenever he can.

The Gambler was adopted and raised by the Posse contact Ling Lee. She spent her childhood travelling with him, adding various oddities to his collection. Once she was older she moved to the Ring of Fire, a casino town in the middle of a desert, to become a show girl. She recently returned to her father who settled in Mudwater.

The Thunderheart is a banished tribesman (shunned for being mixed race). He has a strong connection to Nutbush, where a Petrified Tree and the spirits within it guide him. He is lonely and lives of the shrubbery and herbs in the area. (Not established how he became a scavenger yet).

Had a super fun time and I am looking forward to session 1!
