New releases from Pelgrane Press!

Release Date: February 2019



PELGN14
The Persephone Extraction
$26.95 SRP


The Persephone Extraction is a collection of five interlinked adventures for the award-winning Night’s Black Agents system, which can be run in any order as a campaign, or as stand-alone adventures. Five desperate adventures to save the living from the hungry dead! 

They are so old they cannot remember their names. They are pale, spindly things, with hollow eyes, and long fingers that scuttle like cave-spiders. They are strong – immensely, inhumanly strong – but act like old, arthritic people, shuffling along painfully, conserving their strength for when they need it. They are fast – terrifyingly, breathtakingly fast – but they move slowly, cautiously, fearfully. Their fear outweighs their preternatural gifts; for centuries, survival and control have been their watchwords, their overriding goals. We must not die, they whisper in the dark, even though they can no longer recall what it is to live. And if the world must die so they can live, so be it.

The Persephone Extraction is a campaign for Night’s Black Agents, combining primal horrors from classical mythology with the modern terrors of conspiracy and bioterrorism, and tracking the undead from Paris to the ultra-rich set in Barcelona, through the closed cities of Arctic Russia, to the islands of Greece and the classical underworld in ancient Turkey.

PELGT47
Trail of Cthulhu: Hideous Creatures: A Bestiary of the Cthulhu Mythos (HC)
$49.95 SRP

A collection of 31 Lovecraftian monsters, written for Trail of Cthulhu but usable in any Mythos horror game. Featuring nine all-new creatures that have never taken stat-block form in any game before! Lovecraft created his "shadowy congeners" because the stories of vampires and werewolves had become too familiar and formulaic to evoke true horror. Almost a century later, his own monstrous races have likewise begun to seem like comfortable story furniture rather than unnerving signals that the world is horrible and wrong.

In Hideous Creatures: A Bestiary of the Cthulhu Mythos, we present a comprehensive look at Lovecraft’s hideous creatures, from as many angles as we can. Our goal is contradiction, surprise, and most especially the uncanny: the recognition of something familiar as something weird. Creatures are not just antagonists to fight or flee from; they are entire adventures by themselves, leaving physical traces, occult clues and madness in their eldritch wake.

Hideous Creatures: A Bestiary of the Cthulhu Mythos is the Trail of Cthulhu bestiary written by Mythos giant Kenneth Hite and fellow experts Gareth Ryder-Hanrahan, Becky Annison, Helen Gould and Ruth Tillman, in the tradition of the award-winning Book of Unremitting Horror and the 13th Age Bestiary.

Magnastorm
$69.95 SRP
SDI

When the first exploration vessels entered the cloudy atmosphere of the planet Magnastorm, they discovered not only evidence of abundant natural resources, but also the remains of a long-lost civilization. At the bidding of the magistracy, scout vehicles are lowered to the barren surface to search for suitable mining areas.

Magnastorm is a big, tactical board game with very little luck. Choose the right moment to perform actions or buy influence over helpful commanders. You will reap success through resource management, clever logistics, good timing, and a shrewd eye on the actions of your opponents. At the end of the game, each player receives one of 120 reward cards, which can be used in later games to compensate for varying levels of skill among the players.

Ages 12+

In Fuji, you play as a group of adventurers on their way to Japan's most famous volcano. Mount Fuji. But just before you arrive at your destination. the earth begins to shake and the volcano erupts! Now, your group must escape the deadly lava flows as quickly as possible to reach the safe village. 

In this cooperative dice game, players simultaneously and secretly roll their dice behind their screens in each round. During the game, you must find the best way across a number of terrain cards to the safe village for each player. Each terrain card has a given dice requirement. You can move to a card only if you match this requirement better than both your neighbors, but since you know only your own dice and can communicate only vaguely, you will need both skill and luck to save yourselves.
