Life is a meaningless torture only made bearable when enjoying the misery of others. If you are too blind or weak to accept this... Dear brother... My king... We will use your own suffering to prove it.
    —Salena Valanas on the eve of civil war

RDP is pleased to announce the release of the highly anticipated sourcebook for the Blood Throne campaign setting, Blight Elves: Architects of Despair, written by WereCabbage Hal Maclean!

Blight Elves: Architects of Despair offers Narrators and players a definitive look at the cruelest race to walk to lands of Simarra. Worshipping a goddess who has taken suicide as her own personal portfolio, the blight elves seek not to conquer the world, or even wantonly destroy it, but rather to drive every mortal soul to choose death over life. They consider the spread of misery for misery’s sake their paramount mission, and regard torture, both physical and psychological, as the highest of all art forms.

Inside this 56-page E-book you will find new powers, feats, heroic paths and path masteries, new poisons, diseases, weapons and much more! Blight Elves: Architects of Despair also introduces new villainous paths which allow you take your True20 campaign in new, dark directions. So grab your copy today and delve into the mysteries of these vile creatures!

Reviewer: farewell2kings

Wow--I feel dirty just having read this book. What a nasty race of beings. I ditto what GGG said about this supplement. It can be easily adapted for 3.5 and other game systems, since True20 is so rules light.

Blight Elves gives you an instant campaign villain--a whole society of incredibly evil, incredibly vile and fully detailed elves who are going to make even veteran players squirm. There are so many ideas and concepts in this book that can be robbed for your campaign. If your campaign is languishing mid term and needs a kick start--have your players encounter and start fighting the blight elves and they'll not rest until every last one of these b*~@#es if put to the sword.

How crazy is this? I'm going to adapt this supplement for my Star Trek True20 game--these lovelies are going to make a horrifying villain--a whole planet of Blight Elves and they ain't afraid to go into space to spread the 'love.'

Reviewer: Great Green God

Sick and Nasty. These guys do for elves what the Sabbat did for Vampires in Vampire: the Masquerade. The book is strictly True20, but given that True20 is relatively rules light it's pretty easy to adapt (if only the themes) to any 3.x game you might be playing. In fact I would recommend this book as one of those rare-cross game purchases that could spruce up your "regular" game and give it a distinct feel - especially if you're tired of drow (who seem more and more watered down these days). Blight elves don't pull any punches. True20 has found it's Book of Vile Darkness.

If you go to the RDP website, where you can listen to Rone Barton (The Jade) and I chat with Sam Chupp, the host of The Bear's Grove podcast, about this book.

And when you buy it, make sure you write a review! We'd love to hear your feedback.

I read half of this as a proofreader and thought it was some delightfully twisted stuff. I’m grabbing a copy to get the rest of the scoop (even though I tried to wait until dead tree format), and I’ll report back!

I should be seeing the Print proof next week, so hopefully you'll be able to grab the Dead tree version soon!

Excellent! I have nine people ready to buy, but they just won't do PDF.

Sweet!

The companion to this book (The Blighted Bestiary) is close to being done as well. Once it's finished up I'll get it ready for print.
