4d20 swords which are not +1

Concept: “As you pick up the weapon you feel power and dread. It has history, it has a will. It wants you to kill. It enables you to kill. You're not the same anymore.”
Content: 4d20 swords. +1d20 quests. Not +1.
Writing: Blades of unusual manufacture, dubious history, and questionable reliability. Just like the Scvm who wield them.
Art/design: Bold display fonts over a finely ground body. Colors that are torn, scratched, flecked, spattered, and rolled.
Usability: Compatible with Mörk Borg, but also fairly system agnostic. 

d100 reasons you miss an attack

Concept: “A random table of silly and serious reasons why your players just missed an attack.”
Content:
See above
Writing:
See entry 61 — “the enemy rips off their arm, and parries with it”
Art/design:
Classic three column layout with strong MBC aesthetics.
Usability: Easy to navigate list. Text small but legible. The reasons are only occasionally situational.

D66 Grotesque People

12 contributors
Concept: “What do they want? And ... What might they have?” 
Content: A collection of unfortunate souls to probably stab.
Writing: Makes wonderfully clever use of the “Who... Wants... Has...” npc format. 
Art/design: A filthy riot of design. But it quickly establishes structure. 
Usability: As fvcking inspiration. 

MØRK FÆNGSEL

Concept: “You play as Scäkla, a scum imprisoned deep underground... 
Progress room by room, as you roll dice and draw the rooms as you go, otherwise how will you know which way you went? Anyway, try not to die. You will most likely die.
Content: A solo prison crawl.
Writing: Playful and interactive text which hooks you into the narrative with a tutorial that builds your character even as you begin your prison break.
Art/design: Characterful marginalia simultaneously enhance and age the text. Producing a draft like quality and encouraging both engagement and participation.
Usability: Designed to be printed and scribbled on. Break out your pen. Make a mess. 

Trapped Within

Concept: “’Descending further into delirious madness, King Fathmu IX is haunted by visions of mockery... (he) imprisons everyone who seems a threat in his underground prison. Terrified traitors, aspiring necromancers, powerful demagogues and even scum like you.’” 
Content: A warped, demented, and bloody prison crawl with two new classes, items, tools, and apocalyptic campaign aids.
Writing: A gonzo trip with some devious twists. Accessible at multiple levels of play, from dungeon crawls to a dramatic campaign.
Art/design: A grimy, yet familiar, adventure layout which deviates from expectations to emphasize its most unusual or dramatic encounters.
Usability: Strongly visual, yet highly structured and easy to navigate in play. 

Unholy Night

“You've wandered in the snow for so long you forgot who you are. But to your luck you see a small hut in the distance, saved. Or are you?”
