Coming To Gen Con From Inkwell Ideas: Rock & Roar!

Inkwell Ideas is heading back to Gen Con—and we’re in the same spot as last year! You’ll find us at booth #150 along the far left wall when you’re facing the exhibit hall from the main entrances.

We’re also back in the coupon book with another free sample. Stop by with the coupon and choose one of these freebies:

Speaking of that…

This year we’re debuting* our newest project: Rock & Roar! Two monster books for tabletop roleplaying games inspired by classic rock songs and bands. (* After we ship them to backers in late July.)

One book presents 54 creatures for Shadowdark, the fantasy RPG that blends 5E D&D with old-school sensibilities. The other contains the same 54 creatures with statistics for Old-School Essentials, a faithful recreation of classic B/X-era D&D.

The books also include 16 magic items—such as Message in a Bottle, Rolling Stones, and more—along with several mini-quests and a fantasy map filled with legendary song locations including Stairway to Heaven, The Great Wide Open, and Paradise City.

Here are two of the creatures with Shadowdark statistics:

King of Pain for Shadowdark
