Democracy
and the
Democracy is, literally, rule by the people, with
power concentrated in the individual to decide
the common good, not rule by megalithic
institutions whose power is wielded in self-
interest. How does this relate to *.PDFs?
I'll tell you...some of it, anyway. With *.PDFs as
a way to transmit and receive desired
information, we have the power of the
individual increased. When I began Stone Anvil
Creations back in August 2002, I was excited
about the notion that I could begin to work
from home, and have an original product idea
reach market. All I needed were a few tools, a
little startup money, spare time, creativity and
diligence. I felt tremendously empowered to:
• create something I believed to be of value
• put it out on the market and hopefully into
fellow gamers’ hands.
I felt I could make a difference for the better in
someone’s game out there.

The d20 Multiverse
This is the first of what, I hope, will be many
articles about the various publications that
expand upon the d20 System. Why have I
decided to entitle my first article, “The D20
Multiverse?” In essence that is what d20 has
become. Within this system, I have played
games that range from the earliest of days; the
very steps of evolution—clans of prehistoric
humans raising the child of a more evolved race.
With the same rulebooks I have played games
that took me into a future that none of us dare
dream about—a future where life can exist for
hundreds of years at Light Speed but it would
seem like moments. To introduce my column, I
will discuss what can be seen as the D20
Systems greatest strength—and it’s greatest
weakness; variety.
First, I’m going to go into detail about some
of the terminology I will use in this, and future,

spending some time with many books and PDFs,
discussing them and picking them apart. Some

About Variety...
The PDF market offers a relatively
inexpensive, higher profit margin medium
for writers and publishers to expose their
works to the public at large, and to help
enrich the system that they have come to
love with new rules and settings. Almost
every day, now, a new PDF can be found
on the market, breaking new ground and
helping both GM’s and players to enrich
their game play experience. Sometimes,
the sheer volume of publications can be
overwhelming—what makes one super-
hero PDF better than the next, or what
magic supplement can fit best into your
worlds?
Often, we see two distinct sorts of PDF
publications—the general, and the specific.
These can be sub-categorized; a book
about a specific race complete with PRCs,
or a book about a specific class—also with
5
© 2002 Minion Development

www.RPGNow.com
PRCs and sub-classes. On the general side
we might see a publication about a specific
period in history, a broad cross-section of
PRCs, templates or feats, or a distinct
world.
So then, with so many choices—both in
types of products, and products
themselves, how do we know what we
want or need out of a product? There are a
couple of methods, and hopefully some of
the ones we explore will help making the
choices much easier. One way is to look at
the challenges that you, as a GM or player,
are faced with during game play.
As a player, you might have played a
couple of sessions with your elven PC and
begun to ask yourself, “what more is there
to my character?” With just a little
searching on RPGNow, we find a large
variety of products on just a search for
elves. Of particular interest to our sylvan
friend is “Moon Elves” from Dark Quest
Games. We see new elf sub-types,
equipment, magic, and PRCs all to further
flesh out elven characters. What's more,
we find that the text Moon Elves is 100%
OGC, which many consider an added
value.
PRCs are also a great way to extend your
RPGNow
Downloader|Monthly
characters, especially if you are looking for
that ‘something more’ to make her stand
out from others of her ilk. Browsing, we
find the Librum Equitis from Ambient, inc.,
a PDF dedicated entirely to prestige classes.
The list is extensive and contains a lot of
variety, meaning that we might not only
find something to expand our current
character—but give us ideas for future
characters as well.
As a GM, we might find an entirely
different set of challenges. If our players
have become bored, or complacent,
perhaps we need to throw something new
at them? To fit this hefty order, we find
“Bodies & Souls” from Second World
Simulations. Being a publication dedicated
to templates, we see templates that can fit
into any number of genre’s and help us to
create new or unusual creatures from the
‘same old’ creatures our players may have
faced hundreds of times. Adding new spins
to old flavors is always a welcome change
of pace, both for the player and the GM
alike.
Another problem that many GM’s face is
introducing wondrous magical items, only
to have players immediately ‘know’ what
the item is based simply on the basic
description of the item. “Swords Into
Plowshares,” from Sean K. Reynolds
Games, gives us new and exciting magical
items from a variety of writers, which we
can easily drop into our fantasy games,
and give an element of surprise and
wonder back into the experience of finding
treasure. When something so special as
receiving magical treasure can become old
hat, something like “Swords Into
Plowshares” might be the perfect thing to
bring back that
Feeling
Perhaps you are working as a GM outside
of the actual game play, but working on
expanding and developing your world, or
planning the adventures that your player’s
will face in coming weeks or even months.
After delving into the depths of the earth,
rumors and maps of treasure have been
found that will lead the characters onto
their next journey into faraway desert
kingdoms. You have only sketched out the
basics of a land of rich tombs and
mummies, of strange gods and wondrous
powers. But now what?
Perhaps a fresh look at Bastion Press’
“Egyptian Gods” would be in order? Here
you will find some of the ancient powers

of Egypt in our own world, and draw
inspiration that you can expand upon even
further. You could even use the book ‘as is’
but your players might expect something
new and unexpected in such a land—but
now you have a more thorough basis to
draw from, without spending weeks of
research and preparation.
There are, however, drawbacks in so
much variety to the publications. With so
many products available on the market,
you might seem overwhelmed and unsure
what to buy, if anything. By narrowing
down your choices, finding what you feel
you will need for the coming weekend or
weekends, you will soon find your
collection growing and maintain a fast-
paced, rich and new world for your
characters to explore, both as a player and
as a GM. Unfortunately, sometimes you
might find two different publications
dealing with much the same subject
matter. Or, perhaps, there are a pair of
adventures each for the same levels that
your party is. Which do you choose?
Sometimes, you can only go by reviews
and by guesses, but even that might not
work. Thusly, you must be careful.

Finishing thoughts, and
plans for next time...
So, now we have discussed in general
some of the strengths, and weaknesses, in
such a varied system that the d20 system
has become. We've given some general
thoughts on some of the publications
available, and how they might be the
choices to fit into a given situation you
might run into. Now, we have reached the
meat of where I would like to take you on
future articles. We will spend some time
looking at individual products, more so
than we have here, and look at how they
might fit the bill of what we as GMs and
players might be looking to do with our
gaming.
Next time, I will look at some
publications that follow similar threads in
the crunch that they contain. This might
not be any one specific genre, but perhaps
certain rules that tie together, or the way

two writers take different takes on the

What’s not d20

Eilfin Publishing
[www.eilfin.com]

Though they are often hard to spot through
the influx of all the d20 material in the RPG
market, those companies who put out non-d20
material are not yet extinct. Those little guys
who work on their own systems are still out
there, trying to push the role-playing scene
along.
In this first issue of What’s Not d20, I
thought it best to give you a wide overview of
what’s available through RPGNow. Are you
looking for fantasy, with a different set of rules?
RPGNow has it. How about a bit of horror or sci-
fi gaming? Look no further than RPGNow’s ever-
growing on-line library of PDF files.
The entire list of companies is too long to
place in a single issue, but to give you a little
taste of what you can find, I’ve provided a few
company names below, along with a list of

Other materials put out by Eilfin
Publishing are their Undiscovered Quests &
Adventures e-zines. The first two issues are
now available and average approximately
100 pages each (96 pages for Issue #1 and
104 pages for Issue #2). Issue #1 contains
two adventures; details on a new race
(half-alfar); several optional rules that can
be used in Undiscovered; a detailed
description of a town, including the town
map; a couple short pieces of fiction; a list
of adventure hooks; details on a new
kingdom which expands the game world;
and more. One of the two adventures is
part 1 of a 3-part series, though it can also
be used by itself. This adventure revolves
around a smuggling operation in the town
(the same town that is detailed in the
magazine), while the other adventure
features a dungeon-crawl style adventure.
Optional rules include mounted combat,
knock-out rules, fatal blows, and
additional luck bonuses and penalties.
Issue #2 of the e-zine contains two
adventures; details on another new race
(half-dwarf); a list of new spells for
Undiscovered; another detailed town
setting; a couple short pieces of fiction; a
list of adventure hooks; details on another
new kingdom; and more. One of the two
adventures is part 2 of their continuing 3-
part series. It has been designed so that it
can be used as a stand-alone adventure, as
well. This adventure takes the smuggling
operation to a second town, detailing the
thieves' guild and the town casino. The
second adventure takes place in a small
hamlet that has been overrun by what the
town believes to be trolls. The spell list
provides three new spells for each of the
six covens of magic available in
Undiscovered and includes spells such as
soften stone, lightning ball, acid storm,
bend light, chaos orb, and metallic dragon
hide. The Astman Jungles have been
detailed in this issue, providing diseases
and a list of wildlife and monsters found in
the jungle.
If there are any of you d20 folks reading
this non-d20 information, you can rest
assured that the adventures, adventure
hooks, and other information can be easily
adjusted to fit into your fantasy d20 world.
Spectre Press
Spectre Press has developed an exciting
new setting for your fantasy games called
the Realms of Arkular. This product
contains the history and legends of
Arkular, seven new and unique races, and

over a dozen wonderfully-detailed maps.
The maps start with an entire continent,
which is then broken down into three
views: north, central, and southern Arkular.
Other maps include a region, a city, a
town, a few villages, a castle, and a couple
sets of ruins. The seven races introduced in
this book are designed with generic
statistics so they can be used with any
fantasy role-playing game. Each kingdom
is broken down into digestible bits,
introducing the layout of the land, a
description of the people, adventure hooks
for that particular kingdom, and key
locations throughout the kingdom. An
added bonus in this book is a gazetteer of
the regional map, detailing several
locations throughout the region.
Other products put out by Spectre Press
are their Survival Kits: Survival Kit 1 and
Survival Kit 2 are currently available, with
more on the way. Each kit is a folder filled
with several PDF files. Kit 1 contains a set
of 30 fantasy and 10 space rogue
“Disposable Heroes” miniatures in both
b&w and color, a piece of short fiction, a
science-fiction adventure, details on a new
villain that can be used in your games, and
a new creature that can be used as the

gaming. The villain, a criminal mastermind,
is provided with generic statistics so that
he can be used with any sci-fi role-playing
game. The new creature, also supplied
with generic statistics, is designed to be an
alien, but can work just as well in fantasy
play.
Kit 2 contains a set of 30 undead and 10
cleric “Disposable Heroes” miniatures in
both b&w and color, a piece of short
fiction, a fantasy-mystery adventure,
details on a new villain, and a new magical
item. The villain, the veiled knight, is
provided with generic statistics for use in
any fantasy role-playing game, and also
comes with its own Disposable Hero
miniature. The new magic item, the
Grimmgaunt, can be used as the seed to a
night full of adventure.
And finally, Spectre Press has also
released an adventure called Smuggler’s
Bane. The adventure is designed for use in
any fantasy system, and takes place in a
coastal town. New creatures featured in
the adventure are provided with generic
statistics to port the adventure into any
fantasy game system. In the adventure, the
party is hired to root out a band of
smugglers from a nearby cave complex,
but the smugglers have already been
attacked by other inhabitants of the caves
who are now using the smugglers as a
sacrifice to their primeval god. What is
truly unique about this adventure are the
maps provided at the end—the map is
divided into several smaller sections that
are created to be cut out and used to
guide the players through the adventure.
As the players travel the dungeon, the new
pieces of the map are placed on the table
to show the players what the see. This
saves time when describing the area, so
the players do not need to try and draw
the map themselves, and also allows you
to not give anything away as the players
can only see the pieces you lay down for
them. As an added bonus, the adventure
also comes with five of Spectre Press’
Disposable Hero miniatures, in both b&w
and color, which represent the creatures
encountered during the adventure.
Politically Incorrect Games
Politically Incorrect Games have a couple
different games available through
RPGNow. The Colonies is a science fiction
RPG that takes place on occupied Earth.
The game begins with a briefing, giving
you a background of how things led up to
the current occupation of Earth by a race

of aliens. Humans have created a colonies
on Mars and elsewhere, where the
government is recruiting soldiers for the
Off-World Militia, a military organization
intent on freeing Earth.
When creating a character, the player
must select a colony and background.
Backgrounds will vary with each colony
and provide specific trait or skill modifiers.
Each character then determines their traits
and skill ratings, using a pre-assigned
number of points. Skill categories consist
of fitness (physical) skills, technical
(knowledge) skills, and psionic (mental
power) skills. Combat is broken down into
steps where the characters declare their
actions, determine their initiative order,
then attack or use some other skill or
ability. Damage varies according to the
success of the attack. Experience based on
each character’s actions is awarded at the
end of each gaming session for the
purposes of character advancement. Skills
that were used during the session can then
be improved. Character advancement also
occurs at the end of each mission, when
the characters have the chance to learn
new skills.
The game features various types of
advanced technology: biotech (genetic
RPGNow
Downloader|Monthly
engineering), nanotech devices (the
science of microscopic devices), bio-
mechanical implants, weapons, armor,
exotech, drugs, and other miscellaneous
devices. The Colonies uses PIG’s House
Rules, which requires two (or more) six-
sided dice. The end of the book provides
an example of a team of recruits as well as
a mission, and gives a list of mission ideas
and sample opponents. An update is also
provided with the game, listing a large
number of extra weapons and providing a
couple additional rules.
Their second game is Dystopia: America
2155 AD, a game of rebellion and
liberation intended for mature audiences!
Dystopia, as the name implies, is set in
America in the year 2155. It pits corporate
America against the average citizen, who is
now forced to build his homes from
scratch, scrounge for food, and live in
squalor. The setting is described in only
eight pages, but the picture it paints is very
vivid. Character creation involves rolling for
statistics (or configuring them from a
preset total score), selecting a childhood
which gives you certain bonuses, selecting
a lifestyle which gives you additional
bonuses but is restricted by your
childhood, and, finally, selecting skills from
the provided list (combat, technical,
knowledge, and urban skills). Character
advancement is ongoing throughout the
game; skills and stat scores improved only
if they are used. Combat uses a quick, 4-
step rule: determine initiative, roll to hit,
roll to dodge/parry, and determine
damage. The entire game is fast-paced and
easy to get up and running. It is also
deadly in its realism and requires only a
single ten-sided die for play.

hired by the Academy Masters to prepare a
search-and-rescue team to find a couple of
missing graduating students. During their
search for the missing students, the party
will come across a much larger problem;
one that bodes ill for the entire city as the
dead kings of old have awakened to
reclaim their kingdom.
The adventurers will have to dispatch
each of these revived dead kings, along
with their followers, to destroy the threat
against Vad Khara. But perhaps they
weren’t the real threat at all! The ending
of this adventure provides a nice twist,
which can easily be worked into a much
longer campaign.
Kings of the Desert also contains setting
information, which includes a detailed
map of the Academy, information on
several of the Academy Masters and other
high-profile figures within the city.
This adventure module can be easily
adjusted to match any fantasy game
system.

Created by WorldWorks.
WorldWorks’ new product,
DungeonWorks, is a do it yourself dungeon
kit that has been months in the making.
The kit contains a large number of files,
one of which is a Beginner’s Guide
providing useful tips on how to go about
creating your miniature dungeon set and
recommended materials for making your
dungeon come to life. There are over 40

piece, so if you are a beginner, you can
start with the simple pieces and work up to
the more difficult pieces as your skill
progresses. The design of each piece
allows you to make your dungeon as
expansive or small as you wish; if you need
another length of corridor, or an additional
corner or intersection, simply print out
another piece. When using the

Visira: City of Sorrows

SCORE: 9
Gosh. I’ve greatly enjoyed Darkfuries’
floorplans before; they’re top quality and cheap.
Visira: City of Sorrows isn’t a set of floorplans
and at $10 it’s not particularly cheap for a PDF
either. Mind you, most super-cheap PDFs are
shorter than Visira’s 129 pages. So, Visira isn’t
cheap, the city isn’t a set of floorplans but it
certainly is high quality product.
The City of Sorrows plays to my tastes. The
“City of Sorrows” is an appropriate moniker for
Visira but there’s no trace of badly designed

heraldic shields and these do wonders for
both the presentation and product
completeness. The shields themselves are
for the states and countries that border or
share history with Visira but they’re not
always placed next to corresponding
paragraphs of text and this can catch you
out if you let your guard down. There’s
something just less than perfect about the
colouring of the shields too and it’s partly
due to the baroque atmosphere the text
spins for the city itself—they’re just slightly
too colourful, too obviously computer
rendered, too bright. This is just a little
thing though, just a niggle in the side of a
product with few flaws.
The logical order of the supplement
makes perfect sense. It begins with the
history of the city, explaining why and how
it was built. This history makes free and
plentiful use of global politics without
really explaining the references. We know
that Visira is in the Nation of Blacksword
and that it’s an evil and inhospitable place.
We know there have been conflicts with
the Silver League and unfortunate alliances
in great wars, the exact details of the
enemies and allies are left out but we can
pick up hints and clues from the text. In a
way this is quite pleasant, as your
knowledge of the City of Sorrows builds up
you start to be able to put together a
clearer picture of the surrounding area.
There is actually a fair explanation of the
Nation of Blacksword in a small chapter
right near the end of the product so if
players stray out of the city then you as
GM will have somewhere to stand and
something to spin out. Naturally the
history of the city refers to the building of
certain parts of it and the organisations
and churches that have played key roles.
The supplement then goes on to look at
these three.
The city is divided into Wards, into areas
relating to where they are and what they
do. The Waterfront, for example, is one
Ward and the Old Harbour is another. And
yes, Visira is a port; it is the sort of city you
can dump your players in without having
to worry too much about surrounding
details. Dividing a city into Wards isn’t
anything new—but there’s a reason for
that, it’s both accurate and convenient.
The tour of each Ward follows a pattern. It
begins with the history of the Ward, itís
rise and in some cases it’s fall. There’s then
another short story, a page or so of more
atmosphere building text, text that uses
the people and places introduced and

detailed in the supplement. Then there’s a
look at the organisations present in the
area. As you can imagine this almost
always means a look at the City Watch for
that Ward first. Do you know what? Itís
really nice to have stats and a personality
at hand for the Sergeant and key figures in
the Watch for any given area. These are the
people (and correct me if I’m wrong) that
your player characters are most likely to
end up speaking too. It’s not that the
Watch steals the show—oh no—not in a
city full of pirates, slavers, religions, politics
and secrets. There are always plenty of
other plot-juicy organisations to keep you
happy. I particularly like Scarlet Veil, an
organised guild of assassins and spies that
masquerades under the guise of a
prostitution guild. The women dye their
skin—no, not scarlet, but blue for some
reason—and colour their hair, decorate
themselves with tattoos and murder with a
smile. Better still, the head of this guild
isn’t a super sexy cliché elf but a lady who
has become rather too fond of rich food
now she has all this money to spend. I did
tell you that this was high fantasy but not
necessarily the stereotypical, cliché bloated

these places are just inns or taverns with a
quick note on what the innkeeper and his

Deities have their own chapter. The
colourful computer art that was the
hallmark of the heraldry makes a return
here. The icons for the deities are smaller,
more muted and less prone to bright
colours than the shields and so the style
gets away with more here. As I’ve said, you
won’t find yet-another cleric prestige class
here, instead you’ll be told about the
temples for the god, the priests who serve,
the cleric domains available, the favourite
colours, favourite classes, favourite
weapons, typical alignment, what the
appropriate clothes are and other things
like holy days and whether or not sacrifices
are offered. Frankly, this is the sort of
information thatís more helpful to me in a

Adventures
vs Sourcebooks
Simply looking at the d20 hot sellers list of
RPGnow, you will see that there are more
adventures than sourcebooks. Also looking at
the best sellers list, you can see that the first
adventure is about on 16th place.
It is clear that sourcebooks sell much more
than adventures, and I am wondering: why?
Adventures are the bread-and butter of the
game and often ARE the game. For example, I
prefer the Ravenloft setting in AD&D first and
second edition to the current ArtHaus
production. I think technically ArtHaus produces
very good books, but what I liked about
Ravenloft was not the setting (that is always
fascinating) but the adventures. Currently there
are many more sourcebooks for Ravenloft than
adventures, and this is a shame. The great idea
of Ravenloft was that you could pick up the
party from wherever and place it at the starting
of the adventure, justifying this action with the
setting’s built-in logic. Pure genius.
In fact, there were a lot of very good
adventures for Ravenloft. In fact, it was initially
a single adventure (Ravenloft, 1982 by Tracy and

in the fantasy of many gamers. And what about
Forgotten Realms? Did you saw the campaign
setting before the first-ever Forgotten Realms

Back to our pdfs, an adventure, in my mind,
offers many advantages and is much more ØOne Games
useful than sourcebooks. Let’s see why. Click here to view products.

wish) and scratch notes on it, and useful

information regarding the rooms and the
encounters. Little side reminders are
always useful, especially if you do not have
the time to assimilate the adventure or
don’t have a great memory. Moreover,
given the time, creative DMs can take the
raw material found in the adventure and
shape it as they wish.
Third, adventures in pdf are often
cheaper than the sourcebooks, thus your
money hazards are reduced, in the
eventuality you or your players don’t like
the product.
Fourth, not applicable to all pdf
products, if the adventure is provided with
a good system of bookmarks and links, you
can try to run it from a laptop computer (if
you have one) or even from a desktop if
you have it at hand. Thus you don’t have
to print it at all.
That said, I’m not thinking pdf
sourcebooks are bad. But you do need to
print them, unless you don’t mind reading
on the computer screen, and usually they
are more bulky than an adventure.
What I’m trying to say, considering the
pros and cons, is that there is too much
difference between the sales of
sourcebooks and adventures. It is true,
however, that if you don’t like the
sourcebook you purchased you simply can
ignore it, or even use only some sections.
This cannot disrupt your game but can
only enhance it and does not provoke
trouble at all. On the other hand if you
begin to run a bad adventure, this could
badly affect your game and you probably
will need to heavily modify it, thus wasting
time and annoying the players.
Another thing to consider is that the
adventures are for DM’s eyes only, while
sourcebooks are often suitable for players,
and this could explain the sales difference.
Not only that, but many DMs like to build
their own adventures without relying on
pregenerated adventures.
So, the question remains unattended:
why do adventures sell much less than
sourcebooks?
I can only relate my thoughts here, but
the true answer is in the hands of players.
My opinion is that some adventures,
probably, lack quality. I’m not saying all the
publishers sell bad adventures, I would
never say that, but I think that a good
adventure should be heavily played,
refined and modified before it is published.
Another DM should test the adventure,
21
© 2002 Minion Development

www.RPGNow.com
because the writer tends automatically to
fill the bugs of the adventure without ever
noticing it.
The information inside the adventure
should be presented in a clear form and
the maps should be exhaustive and self-
explanatory. The adventure should also
present all the information the players
need to play: it is nonsense not displaying
the monsters stat block in the same page
of the encounter, forcing the DM to flip
through the book or, worse, to rip or
photocopy some pages.
Okay, this is not the Wizard’s guidelines
to writing good adventures, but you get
my point: quality is important. I can only
advise DMs who buy adventures to look for
these details in every product they
purchase, because they, beyond the utility,
are a good clue for the quality of the
adventure.

Lt. David Jensen
An NPC/Adventure Seed for
Dreamwalker: Roleplaying in the Land of Dreams™
Lieutenant David Jensen was a member of the
British special forces who served near the start
of World War II. In 1940, after Britain had
officially declared war on Germany but before
any major engagements had occurred, his unit
was deployed into the forests of northern
Germany.
During a heated skirmish with enemy troops,
Jensen was wounded and left for dead. His body
went into shock and his still form was passed
over by the German force. The cold and the
snow kept him hovering at the brink of death
for some time but though his body was numb,
his mind continued to function, cycling through
memories of his childhood, images of his wife
and children back home, and mostly dread at
the thought of what would happen to his family
and to all of England should the madman that
was Hitler be allowed to continue his
expansionist ways.
Eventually Jensen’s heartbeat started to fade.
He began to feel light-headed, then as if he
were weightless and he knew his life was near

David Jensen wandered the ocean of dreams
for several days after his death, not fully

he realized he had been given a great gift, that
somehow he had been given a second chance to
protect those he loved.
For the next few years he did his part to help
the Allies win the war. He routinely sought out
RPGNow
Downloader|Monthly
sleeping Germans and then attempted to
convey what he had learned from their
dreams into the dreams of those who
could use the knowledge best.
Several important military and strategic
victories can be attributed to Jensen's
subtle guidance—nothing so great as
Normandy, but important nonetheless. He
was not always successful, because at the
time very few people took great stock in
the content of dreams. However, those
who did choose to act upon his warnings
were often rewarded with victory and
success. Much later, many of them were
credited as being men capable of
remarkable flashes of insight and intuition.
It was during this time that Jensen first
encountered the Taenia, hive-minded
spiritual parasites who feed off the
negative vibes and emotions they produce
in people during sleep; creatures whose
very presence eventually turns the host
insane. The Taenia are instinctively able to
adapt to and appear as the Dreamer’s
greatest fear within the dream and since
Hitler and his SS were so widely feared
during this time, even among his own
armies, nearly all the Taeniid
manifestations Jensen encountered bore
some token of the Nazi regime.
Because of this, he came to the
erroneous conclusion that the Taenia were
actually created by Hitler, a known
practitioner of the occult. Jensen once
entered the mind of Hitler himself in order
to find out more and was nearly
overwhelmed by the horror of the Fuhrer's
mind. Never before and never since has he
encountered so great a Taeniid
manifestation and he was lucky to escape
with his life.
After the war, Jensen returned to
England and tried to make contact with his
wife and family through their dreams.
Unfortunately, he never could convince her
that he was anything more than a dream
and his repeated attempts to do so only
seemed to heighten her grief. He was
saddened by this and eventually stopped
making his presence known, although he
continued to visit her dreams to make sure
she was well.
Plot Hooks…
Jensen has dedicated his existence to
combating tyranny, whether in the dream
world or real. He often visits the dreams of

Jensen may be encountered anywhere in
the Empyrean, but most often where there

war-based dream for instance, he may
provide timely artillery or air support, in a
dream-based war on terrorists he may
provide hints to the whereabouts of cell
leaders or planted bombs, or he may
otherwise help the PCs when things seem
darkest. In this case, the GM should give
the characters a glimpse of a being of
great power and then let them wonder
what he was and why he chose to help.
If Jensen does make direct contact with

the PCs it is usually to ask them to
investigate a real world problem that is
affecting a particular Dreamer. Afterward,
he may become a valuable ally but like all
those who cross over Jensen has lost touch
with the demands of the physical world.
Time means little to a creature of spirit in
the land of dreams, a day in the real world
may seem like no more than an hour, a
month, a year or even more, making
prolonged contact with the living nearly
impossible. PCs who encounter him may
become confused when he agrees to meet
them in a week and then shows up a
month or two later.
…for WWII and other
Military Campaigns
GMs not using the Dreamwalker mythos
can portray Jensen as a ghost or other
restless spirit who appears in the dreams of
any psionically active or otherwise
psychically sensitive Dreamer. The GM can
use him to convey information about real
world troop movements, an upcoming
attack, the existence of an important
device (such as the ENIGMA machine), the
whereabouts of an enemy commander or
any other knowledge the GM wants to
relay in order to point the characters in the
right direction. GMs are encouraged to
relay this information through the use of
symbolism and over the course of a dream
rather than just laying out the facts; just be
careful when using symbols not to be too
vague with the most important details.
Another interesting way Jensen may be
encountered is by drawing the PCs into a
shared dream in a setting that closely
mirrors the world around them. In this
case, the PCs should be unaware that they
are dreaming. Have Jensen pose as a scout
or resistance fighter with crucial
information about a dangerous real world
mission. Then conduct the dream mission
as a standard adventure, perhaps throwing
in a few subtle clues over the course of
play (a modern day airplane, the
appearance of a fictional character, a
purple tank, etc.) to suggest that things
might not be all they seem. As an added
bonus, the GM can be as brutal as he
wants since characters killed over the
course of the dream eventually wake up.
Success in the dream adventure should
result in success in the real world, and the
GM can automatically fast forward to the
end of the mission. However, failure in the
dream means the characters still have to

go on the mission (if they wish) and may
be in for some nasty surprises if the GM
decides to alter some of the upcoming
encounters.
…for Modern Games
Once again, GMs not using the
Dreamwalker mythos can portray Jensen as
a ghost or other restless spirit who appears
at night in the dreams of a psychically
sensitive PC. In modern times, Jensen can
be used to convey information about the
current whereabouts and doings of
skinhead or other neo-Nazi organizations,
ongoing acts of corporate intimidation,
terrorist plots, government conspiracies,
the actions of modern day
oppressive/dictatorial (in his eyes, anyway)
regimes, or the whereabouts of any true
Nazis who survived the war by fleeing
Europe. A group dream sequence as
outlined above may also provide for an
interesting adventure.

DISCLAIMER
We have made every effort to make sure that all parts
fit together properly, but sometimes tolerances are tight
and mistakes do happen. Test fit all pieces before applying
glue. Some trimming may be required.
Before photocopying or printing these pages on card-
stock, you may wish to assemble a test copy on plain paper
to better understand the construction. A minimum of 65#
cover stock is recommended for constructing the final
models. Regular 20 lb. bond paper can be used, but these
items were designed for a heavier stock for extra durability
and coloring.
Tools Required:
Scalpel or sharp-bladed hobby knife
Metal ruler or straight-edge
Cutting surface - a self-healing cutting mat is recom-
mended, but a sheet of corrugated cardboard or even
heavy poster board will work as well.
Glue - white glue, glue stick or wax stick. Double sided
cellophane tape also works well. Rubber cement can be
used, but will sometimes stain the cardstock or make it
more difficult to color.
A Note About Using White Glue
White glue contains a good deal of water. Too much
glue will warp the card stock so that its almost unusable.
Warping may also cause the parts to fit together incor-
rectly. If you use white glue, put a very thin coat on the
glue tabs - the thinner the better. You can use a cotton
swab or your finger to spread the glue thin. Remember to
keep a damp paper towel handy to remove any excess
glue.
PLEASE NOTE:
Each item has been marked with a series of Grey Lines
that are an indicator that these lines are Fold or Score lines.
All Tabs which are to be glued to hold the structures
together are marked with a capital letter (G). Unless
otherwise noted, all Glue Tabs fold inwards to the
structure.
All of the stand-ups in this set will construct the same
way, regardless of their orientation. Cut out and score as
indicated. Fold the piece in half and fold the two bottom
“feet” in. Glue one of the feet on top of the other to form a
triangular shape. If desired, the stand-ups can be glued to a
heavier piece of cardboard or chipboard 1” X 1” to form a
base.
To begin construction of this model, cut out the wall
section and score as indicated. It will be easier to cut out
the wall as a single large square and not cut out all the

angles and around the windows to begin. Fold the piece in
half to create a two sided piece, apply glue on the
unprinted side and press the two sides together. Set this
section aside to dry under a stack of books to keep it flat
while drying. You may wish to put a layer of wax paper on
the top and bottom to keep the piece from sticking to your
books or your table in case some of the glue leaks out.
While this section is drying, cut out the base, stairs and
pit. Score the stairs as indicated and fold in the two side
panels. Match the top panels of the stairs with the angles of
the sides, gluing all tabs to the inside. Work one side at a
time. Set aside to dry.
After scoring the pit, fold up all three sides to create a
box with the printed sides on the inside. The tabs on the
side walls will glue to the outside, but don’t do that yet.
Take the finished stairs, apply glue to the sides and form
the walls of the pit around the stairs so that the back of the
stairs is flush with the rear of the side walls. When in
place, glue the tabs at the front of the side walls to the
outside of the back wall. When dry, fold down all the tabs
along the top edges. Set this section aside to dry.
Cut out and score the base, making sure to cut out the
large blank rectangle in the top of the base before folding.
Take the completed stair section and glue to the underside
of the base over the cut-out, lining up the edges. When
dry, fold down the sides of the base and glue the tabs to
the inside. For final assembly, apply glue to the blank sides
of the base and wrap the wall section around the base,
making sure that the glue blank along the bottom of the
one wall is to the inside and matching up with the blank
side sections of the base. Hold in place until dry.
To construct the chest, fold down all sides from the top
and glue the tabs to the inside. The finished chest can be
placed on the base as desired.
The finished ruins.
