Only Monsters Here

 

 

Only Monsters Here is a 227-page, full colour setting supplement for The Nightmares Underneath (second edition) that focuses on overland exploration in a hostile wasteland full of monsters. It is a product of the Monthly Monsters patreon.

Go to DriveThruRPG for the pdf and premium colour print options.

Go to Lulu for the standard colour softcover option.

Only Monsters Here contains:

  • An overland hexcrawl exploration setting, with factions, landmarks, a hex map, and new rules for travel and vehicles. There is both a dangerous wasteland AND a ruined city to explore.
  • Numerous random tables for generating dungeons, encounters, events, settlements, and other locations.
  • Playable monster types, including chaos riders, dark elves, goblins, mutants, pirates, orcs, spider people, and trolls.
  • A complete bestiary with over a hundred different monster stat blocks.
  • A conversion guide for other old school fantasy role-playing games, in case you want to use this setting with a different set of rules.


A note of caution:
This is an open world, sandbox style setting and it leans heavily on random tables and wandering monster encounters. There are a lot of monsters in it, but if you are looking for already-detailed dungeon maps or adventure scenarios, this may not be the book for you.
