About

Life is short. Steal a fort!  MÖRK BORG is a game about losing everything. It helps to have something to lose! This supplement has “rules,” hooks, encounters, and characters for fort-based survival. It’s best for high-level near-doom campaigns (after the fourth misery or so). Low on crunch, & with more flavor and misfortune than a wheel of boar cheese.  Outfit Your Impending Tomb:

You did it! You've stolen a fort. Now it's time to make this ruin your own until the seventh psalm destroys it and you and everything! In the meantime, you might get to...

🗡️ Face trouble - from doomcarolers to goblin attacks, your fort is bound to attract attention! 

👻 Delve into the haunted crypts of your new home; discovering what once lived here... and what still does.

🧿 Hire "friends" to join you (maybe a scumguard, or a wickhead cook, or a powerful snailwitchthe best companions silver can buy).

🏰 Cobble together defenses and unique buildings from the meatroach farm to the escape tunnel (and, most importantly, the graveyard). 

💀 Build a place for you and your comrades (living and dead) worth dying in!

For gamemasters, there are curses, plot hooks, quick tables, and regional consequences. Characters are statted, and the whole 18-page PDF is bookmarked for easy navigation, and there are some spooky folklore references in many of the curses, hooks, and details (in the spirit of the jam!). Plus... it's free! 

Words and layout by me. Art is all stock or licensed, or original. Some oblique references point to other third party content that are credited throughout.
