Sharp Swords & Sinister Spells Giveaway Contestants - Results soon!


I am ashamed to only be doing this now, but SB&CS took some time out of my life (but it’s for a good cause, I promised).

Last year, I posted about a Adventure Idea contest to give away copies of SS&SS and the Addendum. The number of copies given away would vary according to the number of contestants. However, we just had 10 entries, so that is just one bundle to give away.

Before announcing the winner, I would like to post here the name of all contestants and the name of their entry. If I am missing anyone, PLEASE, let me know so I can correct this and draw a winner with all the entries. I may have missed one or two, who knows.


  1. Dan Davis - The Archway of the Oneiric Fortress
  2. Jason Marby - The Chamber in the Swamp of Death
  3. Bruno Araujo - The Chamber in the Swamp of Death
  4. Black Barth - The Tourney of the Unforgiving Warrior
  5. Diego Santos - The Battle of the Obsidian pyramid
  6. Gary Anastasio - The Orb of the Eternal Merchant
  7. Jim Miller - The Bard of the Frozen Woods
  8. Cezar Capacle - The Wall of the Loathsome Master
  9. Paul Go - The Scorching Fortress
  10. Joseph Sarunic - The Savage Shrine


I believe this is all! I loved all of them and I think they will look pretty cool in a compiled, laid out, PDF with some illustrations! So, within 2 weeks if no one else reminds me of any entry that I happen to miss, I will be drawing a winner from the 10 entries presented here and contact the chosen one to send them their free copies of SS&SS and the Addendum!

Until them, check out the Solar Blades & Cosmic Spells IndieGoGo campaign and help us out spreading the word about it! We have a little over 10 days left!

The Faithful - An Optional Archetype for Sharp Swords & Sinister Spells Revised Edition

Work on the revised edition of Sharp Swords & Sinister Spells is moving along. This will be a hefty tome, with a LOT of tools and new options to customize your campaign, keeping the style, simplicity and flexibility of the original game. Today I come to present my lateste addition to the draft, a new Archetype for those that want to insert some elements of more tradiotional fantasy into the game. The Faithful is an archetype inspired by the Cleric of more popular RPGs, but with some twist to fit SS&SS better. Following it, there is a sample "God" to use with it. The Faithful The gods have chosen you to represent them in the mortal realm, or at least that’s what you believe. Most of the priests, monks and shamans perform their rituals without any hope to get an answer from their patrons, but you know you are being listened to. Your patron, your god or your ancestors help you and those that they deem worthy through you. Your faith can actually operate miracles. ...

How to never describe a dungeon!

Artwork by Luigi Castellani I've heard it a thousand times. You probably heard it too. Some people , I don't know why, say that dungeons , especially large ones, are boring . The endless repetitions of rooms and corridors and having to choose to go left, right, north or south depresses them. I don't know why. Actually, I do know why. Because they don't really know how to run a dungeon in play. It seems easy, effortless. Just say what's in the room the PCs are in and where the passages going out of it go. But it's not. They get bored with the "you get to a intersection and there is a door to the north and two passages, one going east and one going west" because that's a terrible way of describing a dungeon environment and gives nothing really useful to the players to choose from. You never describe a dungeon like that . There's a lot more going on that we can initially see. A good referee will take all the context of what the dungeon w...

Dark Streets & Darker Secrets - Complete Game Text

November was NaGaDeMon (National Game Design Month), and I decided to create an Action Horror RPG using my system (updated with all the modifications of Solar Blades & Cosmic Spells). Inspired by Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Supernatural, X-Files, The Chilling Tales of Sabrina, Grimm and many more TV Shows, comics and books, I quickly worte Dark Streets & Darker Secrets . It is written in a very direct and simple way, similar to Sharp Swords & Sinister Spells originally was, but with uodated rules and a lot of tools and tables to assist the Referee in creating adventures, NPCs, locations, artifacts, monsters and much more. The book itself will eventually be release in partnership with Gallant Knight Games , but the text is already written and ready to be used, so I am sharing it here with you all! There is no official character sheet yet. I am working on it. But a simple Index Card will work just as well! So here it is:  https://drive.google.com/open?id=1QlFYafvxv...
