What's in issue 5?
Sahill, the Cursed City
First up in this issue we have another entry for the Ashk Gazetteer, this time for the city of Sahill, a cursed city filled with undead with a tragic history.
The Witch Class
Next we have a new spellcasting class in the witch, an arcane caster who learns their magic from their connection to their witch's coven.
The coven subclasses from this class each give a really different playstyle experience, from the coven of blood which allows you to steal enemies blood and use it to buff yourself or debuff them, to the coven of cauldrons who can brew the elixir of life.
The coven of shadows can steal the shadows of their enemies and use them against them, and the coven of the earth makes a special bond with a spirit of the natural world, which comes to them as a witch's familiar.
How to Run Horror
This article talks about the idea of the tension curve, a narrative device you can deploy to give your players the best scares possible.
The Ghoul Doctor
This new monster, written by Kieran Mathers is a support creature whose purpose is keeping other monsters in the fight. It comes with an adorable/horrific assistant known as a flesh abomination, but we prefer to call him Simon.
