Shadows over Vathak
Shadows over Vathak is a full setting created as part of Fat Goblins 24 Hour RPG Project. The goal of the 24 Hour RPG Project was to create a full 96 page book in color for a setting that was determined by popular vote tallied at the start of the 24 hour launch. The 24 hour deadline was missed, but with the support of our fans, in the following weeks we poured our creativity and talent into this setting.
Shadows over Vathak is a dark fantasy, survival, lovecraftian setting full of eldritch horrors. In this book you will find 6 playable races, 4 new classes, detailed equipment, overview of the setting (including details on specific regions, cities, landmarks, etc.) and new creatures to throw at your players.
It was an ambitious attempt to create a full book in 24 hours that didn't work out as you planned, but I think this is a much better product. I picked up my copy and so far I like what I see. Of course I want look further in to it but so far I like what I see plus there are some monsters that I can use in my home campaign.

Thanks Louis, yeah it was ambitious- and we totally agree we are a lot happier with this final then we would of been with the 24 hour version. And the response we've gotten so far has been great. Enjoy those monsters :)
Awesome discount! I can't say much of the product, yet, but I can say that I really look forward to delving into the new base classes, especially the Eldritch Conjuror looks promising, it has a real sword & sorcery feel to it.
I'll definitely write a review when I get a chance.

Can't wait Axel! I like the Eldritch Conjuror as well. I think the base classes for the book are all really cool and we were very happy with how they turned out and how they came together for the book.
Just purchased it. Went through it real quick but I love what I see. Rick Hersey's art and the graphic layout work really well together. The new classes look very fun. I especially like the apostle. One of the my friends/players would have a blast running that class as its right up his ally. I would definitely like to see a future monster expansion with some more lower level creatures. Anyway, great job and thanks for the discount!
Hey John, thanks for the compliments on the art/layout. We strive to make all our books visually appealing in those departments. We weren't able to include all the creatures we had dreamed up in the initial setting book, but expect to see support for the setting as either pdf or posted content on our recently launched website www.fatgoblingames.com - we will have an assortment of posts with snippets for the setting, and short 1-2 page free pdf's for the setting in the future.

Looking forward to it. On a side note, I'm glad I saw your aberrant template. I was going to design my own "aberrant" template for a freelance project I'm doing so luckily I can change the name before I look st00pid.
Anyway, people should definitely check this setting out.
We are just past the 1/2 way mark to get the book at $1
Bought! Thanks for bringing this to my attention; I look forward to reading it over the next few days!
