Sixteen Sorrows: A Handbook of Calamities

ADD TO WISHLIST >
Selected Option:

Conjure Dire Woes for the Mightiest of Heroes

Within these sorrowful pages a GM will find sixteen calamitous types of circumstances to present to their players, each one designed to provide dire antagonists, friendly faces, nettlesome complications, flavorful macguffins, and matching adventure seeds for the busy GM. Rather than just being canned scenarios, the tools in this book are Sine Nomine-style content generators to help you build your own fresh afflictions. Trusty mainstays like bandit depredations, evil sorcerers, tyrannical lords, vile curses, and other staples of the game master's arts are invigorated and shaded by the tools in this book, giving a reader the fresh ideas they need to put a new gloss on old favorites.

While Sixteen Sorrows is written for the Godbound role-playing game of heroic demigods and designed to equip a GM with suitable challenges for those mighty exemplars, the tools in this book are built to be equally useful to GMs running more traditional fantasy games. So choose the manner of your destruction. Get Sixteen Sorrows, and unleash grief and lamentation on an unsuspecting world!

(Nota Bene: The print version of this book is listed as being a "color softcover", even though the interior is black-and-white. I chose this format of printing because the color softcover books are negligibly more expensive to print, but have a higher quality of paper.)

Are the print versions of this and Ten Buried Blades perfect bound or saddle stitched?

Perfect bound. From what I can see, saddle-stitch is limited to premium color products, and while I could likely slide them in beneath the page limit, the price increase would be noticeable.

Scanned image
These products were created by scanning an original printed edition. Most older books are in scanned image format because original digital layout files never existed or were no longer available from the publisher.

For PDF download editions, each page has been run through Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software to attempt to decipher the printed text. The result of this OCR process is placed invisibly behind the picture of each scanned page, to allow for text searching. However, any text in a given book set on a graphical background or in handwritten fonts would most likely not be picked up by the OCR software, and is therefore not searchable. Also, a few larger books may be resampled to fit into the system, and may not have this searchable text background.

For printed books, we have performed high-resolution scans of an original hardcopy of the book. We essentially digitally re-master the book. Unfortunately, the resulting quality of these books is not as high. It's the problem of making a copy of a copy. The text is fine for reading, but illustration work starts to run dark, pixellating and/or losing shades of grey. Moiré patterns may develop in photos. We mark clearly which print titles come from scanned image books so that you can make an informed purchase decision about the quality of what you will receive.

Original electronic format
These ebooks were created from the original electronic layout files, and therefore are fully text searchable. Also, their file size tends to be smaller than scanned image books. Most newer books are in the original electronic format. Both download and print editions of such books should be high quality.
