‘100 Oddities for a Vampire Lair’ Released by Skirmisher!

Skirmisher Publishing is pleased to announce its release of “100 Oddities for a Vampire Lair,” the newest entry in its popular and bestselling line of system-free sourcebooks designed to make any areas or encounters taking place in them more fun and compelling! 

This 18-page system-free sourcebook is available from DriveThruRPG by itself for just $1.99 and in a number of special discounted thematic Bundles.

“100 Oddities for a Vampire Lair” draws on the long spanning multicultural tradition of Vampire myth-telling across the world and, of course, the plentiful body of literature and films that feature them. This supplement is dedicated to the places where Vampires lurk and focuses on the horrors that accompany the denizens of their lairs and provides enough detail on each to bring them to life (so to speak).

This sourcebook includes entries by Wilhelmina T. Thrasher, Clint Staples, and Michael O. Varhola. It is illustrated with 18 custom images by Thrasher and also includes a Random Coffin Contents table for when a storyteller needs something special or particularly weird to fill a specific tomb or sepulcher. 

Oddities are designed to help storytellers make places in their scenarios as memorable as those that have appeared in innumerable sources like those mentioned above and to fascinate and engage characters and prompt them to ask questions like “Why is this thing here?”, “What is that for?”, or “Who would do something like this?” They are intended to aid creativity, to turn possibly bland areas or encounters into something more, and to take your imagination in directions it might not otherwise have gone. And, as with other “Oddities” volumes, all of the entries in this book can be used separately or in conjunction with one another to add evocative details to any sort of appropriate area or encounter and in any manner that suits the needs of a particular storyteller.
