Set on the red planet not as it exists, but as people at the turn of the 20th century thought it might be, Shadows of a Dying World is drawn from the Mars series of Edgar Rice Burroughs and presents creatures from his world in game terms. Its contents are compatible with any games that use the d20/OGL system and can be inserted into them in whole or in part.

On this Mars, elegant city-states rise along the banks of world-spanning canals, luxurious airships ply the thin atmosphere, feisty princesses and feckless nobles are menaced by killers of the drear dried-up sea-beds, and skilled swordsmen defend dynasties that have ruled for aeons. Despite both wondrous technology and mysterious mental abilities developed beyond the comprehension of Earthlings, however, the most farsighted of the Martians know that the history of their world is drawing toward its end, and that its life-giving atmosphere and waterways are already sustained only by vast efforts of engineering.

Shadows of a Dying World presents the unique wonders and dangers posed by the weirdly sentient denizens of Burroughs’ Mars. Creatures covered in Shadows of a Dying World include the Apt, Banth, Calot, Corphal, Great White Ape, Green Martian, Kaldane, Rykor, Plant Man, Silian, Sith, Thoat, Ulsio, and Zitidar.

Other features of this book include guidelines for using Burroughs’ creatures in both Mars and non-Mars campaign settings, Martian random encounter tables, new Feats, the Class Defense Bonus combat option, and original illustrations by artists Brendan Cass, Dragan Ciric, Sharon Daugherty, William Hazzard II, and Geoff Weber. This book also comes with Combined Creature Creation, a 52-page bonus document compiled and used during the creation of this book and provided as a useful tool for game masters.

This booklet is dedicated to expanding the options for familiars available to arcane spellcasters like Sorcerors and Wizards and is inspired by a number of the concepts introduced in Skirmisher Publishing LLC’s ENnie-nominated The Noble Wild. This book, an “Animal Player’s Handbook,” presents a detailed system for incorporating viable animal characters into traditional or animal-oriented OGL campaigns.

Some of the material in this publication was developed as addenda to The Noble Wild and some of it appears in the current edition of that book. Collectively, however, this material has applications that can be applied outside of the system presented in The Noble Wild. And so, we have created Updated Animal Familiars as a means both of making this material available to people who are not familiar with The Noble Wild and of introducing some of the concepts in that publication to them.

This publication includes:
• Updated tables detailing the benefits acruing to an arcane spellcaster for various sorts of familiar, including humanoid familiars and 18 new animal familiars;
• Full OGL stats for all of the new animals presented as possible familiars in this book; and,
• A new basic character class, the Greater Familiar.

Free items available for The Noble Wild on this site include a pack of OGL and OGL Modern character sheets, the bonus deed “Claws of the Sirocco,” and a set of Noble Animal Spell Lists.

An OGL Adventure and Sourcebook for Fantasy Role-Playing Games Set in the Silurian Heights

Tests of Skill v.3.5 is a thoroughly revised, updated, and expanded version of the innovative OGL adventure module and sourcebook originally released as a version 3.0 publication and intended as a companion volume to Experts v.3.5. This edition has been expanded by 24 pages, had its character and monster stats corrected and revised, and includes one new encounter, one new scenario, one new scenario outline, a new section on Defects and how to use them in the game, and numerous other new elements. It is intended to be enjoyed both by people familiar with the previous version and those completely new to it.

Tests of Skill v.3.5 is designed to entertain and challenge players through scenarios and encounters that can be overcome optimally through role-playing, skill use, and diplomacy. While traditional hack-and-slash techniques can be used to complete portions of the scenarios, most groups will find that tact, thought, and appropriate use of skills, feats, and abilities are generally much more useful and effective. It includes numerous tips on adjudicating skill checks that can be applied to any game session.

Features include:
• A versatile wild-land setting—the Silurian Heights—that can be used as a campaign setting or easily dropped into almost any existing milieu, including statistics on six different urban areas and local weather
• More than two dozen detailed encounters, including three complete mini-dungeons and general and specific encounter tables
• Three detailed scenarios and three scenario outlines that explain how to organize the included encounters into effective plot lines
• 10 maps and diagrams, including player’s and DM’s wilderness maps, diagrams of several encounter areas, and a dungeon map based on Dwarven Forge’s Master Maze sets
• Dozens and dozens of fully keyed and described NPCs, including two complete adventuring parties and stats for sample Warriors, Commoners, and Experts of the types like to be encountered
• Three new prestige classes, the Gnoll Crocuta (plus the new Fear spell domain), Humbug, and Mercenary Commander.
• 16 new Skills, 35 new Feats, and 19 new Defects
• Three new monsters, the Half Troll, Dire Hyena, and Multi-Mind
• Detailed rules on the creation, usage, and special properties of books, including their effects on XP and skill checks

This download includes low-resolution screen-friendly and high-resolution printer-friendly versions both of its cover surfaces and its interior pages.

Some of the most labor-intensive and disruptive sorts of spells in the game are for sure the various levels of Summon Monster. As soon as they are cast, things grind to a halt as the proper stats are looked up, the appropriate Celestial or Fiendish template applied with all its various changes …and that's assuming just one of it was summoned! And if the caster has the Augment Summoning feat as well, introducing more changes to the summoned monster’s stats, well…

Cooper’s Corrected Summon Monster solves these problems! Written by ENWorld staff reviewer and 3.5 rules guru John Cooper, this critical new series of books presents thoroughly revised and corrected stats for the creatures summoned by these spells.

Features of Cooper’s Corrected Summon Monster I–III include:
• Corrected stats for all the monsters from the v.3.5 SRD that appear in the lists for the first three levels of Summon Monster spells that address often-overlooked elements like skill synergy bonuses and size modifiers.

• Full alternate stats for monsters to which the Augment Summoning feat has been applied, to include all necessary updates to stats like attack and saving throw bonuses and hit points.
