COA02: Ghoul Keep and the Ghoul Lands

ADD TO WISHLIST >
Selected Option:

Ghoul Keep and the Ghoul Lands is a sandbox mini-setting supplement for the Labyrinth Lord™ RPG that details an isolated kingdom located north of the Duchy of Valnwall. The people of the Ghoul Lands are ruled by the Ghoul King Lorrgan Makaar, a powerful undead creature who has slowly amassed an army of undead to invade the living lands in the south.

Ghoul Keep a.k.a. Morakaal
Ghoul Keep, a.k.a. Morakaal, is a forbidding mountain fortress that blocks the northern reaches of the Pass of the Dead in the rugged mountain range known as the Peaks of Valen. It is an ancient structure, comprised of fused bone walls, angular towers, sharp battlements, and lofty spires whose peaked windows flicker with ghostly green light.

The elite soldiers of King Lorrgan Makaar’s horde dwell here, including evil humans, ghouls, and an abominable race of ghoul-human hybrids known as gahouls. These forces regularly patrol the lands north of the pass, searching for those who would try to enter or escape the Ghoul Lands, but seldom venture far south of the keep’s walls for fear of a mystical barrier known as the Cursed Ward of Valen that brings painful death to any undead attempting to cross it.

The Ghoul Lands a.k.a. The Kingdom of Makaar Mor
The people of the Duchy of Valnwall believe Ghoul Keep marks the start of an undead wasteland known only as the Ghoul Lands. In fact, the entire Ghoul Lands is actually an isolated human kingdom named the Kingdom of Makaar Mor that lies in a fertile valley beyond the Peaks of Valen. The Kingdom of Makaar Mor is fully detailed in this supplement.   

Using Ghoul Keep and the Ghoul Lands
Ghoul Keep and the Ghoul Lands is designed for the Chronicles of Amherth™ Labyrinth Lord setting, but with a little work, it can easily be incorporated into any existing campaign. The isolated nature of the Ghoul Lands means the Kingdom of Makaar Mor can be "dragged and dropped" into any mountainous region as an established realm, a rumored territory, or perhaps even a “lost world” type valley that is discovered via a hidden mountain pass.

What You Get
-The history of the Ghoul Lands a.k.a. the Kingdom of Makaar Mor, with details on its geography, architecture, technology level, and the people, their customs, and way of life. 

-Maps of the capital of each of the kingdom's five provinces as well as descriptions of the rulers, dozens of major NPCs and factions, and details of some of the more interesting locations found throughout. 
-30 new magic items themed for the setting (many dealing with undead)
-8 new plants that produce interesting natural and supernatural effects
-11 new monsters (including 4 different variations of the typical ghoul)
-6 maps of Ghoul Keep and its dungeons, all fully stocked and detailed
-1 map of a Commoner’s Hall—a specialized marketplace, with all of the shops and NPCs fully detailed. A great starting point for launching a new Ghoul Lands campaign!
-1 short adventure, Kalitus Corpi, designed for beginning characters levels 1-3 (see below for more info).

Take What You Will!
The Ghoul Lands setting presented in this book may not be suitable for every group, campaign, or style of play. The Labyrinth Lord is encouraged to mine these pages for any NPCs, Factions, New Monsters, New Magic Items, or story ideas that can be ported over to his own game. In addition, the awesome maps of Ghoul Keep and the various settlements, towns, and cities of Makaar Mor provided by Tim Hartin of Paratime Design can be easily restocked and reused to better fit your game world. Enjoy!

KALITUS CORPI
Also included with this product is the sample adventure Kalitus Corpi. Kalitus Corpi is a short, site-based Labyrinth LordTM adventure designed for 4-6 characters of 1st-3rd level (about 8-10 levels total). The adventure takes place in a ruined temple that has been taken over by a cannibalistic cult named the Kalitus Corpi. The party must discover the cult's activities, infiltrate the temple, and destroy the cult's avatar—a hideous undead hybrid of man, rat, and maggot known as Raltus the Undying.

This is an incredible bargain. I am only 8 pages in, but if the quality is like this throughout the 133, this is money very well spent. I purchased it as a standby module/sandbox in case my party wandered through the "Entrance to the Land of the Ghouls" in module X2: Castle Amber. Even if my party doesn't get there this way, I'd love to take a party through this land.

Great material, really helpful, and a big bargain at $1.49 for the PDF, plus I'm going to order the paperback book version so I'll have a paper copy to refer to. No idea how they can offer 133 pages of material for $1.49, but the effort is very much appreciated.

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.
