From publisher blurb:
Vacant Ritual Assembly is a brand new OSR zine. Directly compatible with Lamentations of the Flame Princess, but easily adaptable to other OSR games. 22-pages of content, 100% of which comes straight from my weekly LotFP campaign.
Issue #1 includes:
Dope Artwork from Corey Brin, Abigail Larson, and Sean Poppe
The Ghoul Market: Beneath a defiled chapel, the scavengers of the dead emerge from their tunnels to barter with the living and the damned. PCs bold enough to do business here can emerge with powerful magic, but what will they leave behind?
Meet the Skinsmith: A corpulent cyclopean demon who will perform voluntary surgical procedures on your PCs. Magical tattoos, hideous resurrections, artisanal cadavers!
Vespero the Antiquarian: A strange, sickly man who runs the curiosity shoppe at the end of the row. A weird “quest hub” NPC whose shop might offer PCs a glimpse of the Ghoul Market’s wares.
Luminari, Lady of the Golden Lamp: A strange firefly goddess from the deep woods.
Brahnwick is Dead: Complete one-session adventure. A flooded town overrun by madmen. An abandoned keep. A lake monster?
An interview with Chris McDowall about his new opus Into the Odd.
Greycandle Manor: An abandoned manor on the edge of town, ready for your PCs to inhabit and/or explore, but what’s up with that hole in the basement?
