THE MONSTER APPROACHES








EIGHT ENNIES



DEATH BY DICE

MÖRK BORG is a pitch-black apocalyptic fantasy RPG about lost souls and fools
seeking redemption, forgiveness or the last remaining riches in a bleak and
dying world.



Confront power-draining necromancers, skulking skeletal warriors and
backstabbing wickheads. Wander the Valley of the Unfortunate Undead, the
catacombs beneath the Bergen Chrypt or the bedevilled Sarkash forest. But leave
hope behind - the world’s cruel fate is sealed, and all your vain heroic efforts
are destined to end in death and dismay. Or are they?



Who are you? The tomb-robber with silver glittering between cracked fingernails?
The mystic who would bend the world’s heart away from it’s inevitable end?



One day

all will

blacken

and burn.



MÖRK BORG is a complete game in the OSR genre, that can be played as is or be
picked apart for use in your own homebrew. The rules are easily made compatible
with most of the editions of the world’s largest role-playing game. Within the
book you’ll find:


A brief look at this dying world. From The Two-Headed Basilisks’ gothic
cathedral in Galgenbeck and Blood-countess Anthelia’s limestone palace, to the
fields of death in Graven-Tosk and the barren wastes of Kergüs.

The Calendar of Nechrubel, that decides the speed of the world’s demise.

20 occult Powers that let you bend reality, and just as many magical
catastrophes for when you disastrously fail.

Optional rules which brings more depth to the game. Omens let you turn bad luck
into a slightly better one. Classes with unique traits and quirks, and tables
that will bring life into your character.

12 creatures to be murdered by.

Game master tools such as tables for corpse plundering, occult treasure,
adventure sparks, dungeon generating and other devilry.

The introductory dungeon crawl scenario Rotblack Sludge, where you investigate a
forgotten part of the Shadow King’s enormous ruin palace. Cannibal warlocks,
poison peddlers from beyond the void and hungry gutworms await.

 









MÖRK BORG is constructed by Pelle Nilsson (Ockult Örtmästare Games) and Johan
Nohr (Stockholm Kartell). The game is published by Free League Publishing and is
available in Swedish and English - the English text is edited and cursed by
Patrick Stuart (Veins of the Earth, Silent Titans).

Rules reference

MÖRK BORG is rules light and you should never feel the need to flip through the
book while you're killing PCs. But should you need it, we put this rules
reference page at the back of the book. And here, as a pdf. For your players
maybe?


Character sheets

In the dying world of MÖRK BORG your character will probably not last long, so
it might be a good idea to print some of these. Available in both fancy,
printer-killing edition, and the slightly less ink drinking kind.


Character sheets:
CHRYPT EDITION

In case you run out of the regular character sheet or just really dislike it for
whatever reason, this optional version by Johannes Ramö Streith is for you.


Free, plain text version:

MÖRK BORG

BARE BONES edition

Curious but uncertain? Want to peek into the Abyss before taking the plunge?
This is the free, scaled down version of the entire MÖRK BORG core book. No art,
except the cover image, and just the text, without any fancy fonts or
experimental graphic design.

But just as miserable.

SCVMBIRTHER

For those of you who either hate paper, or are really in a hurry - SCVMBIRTHER
is the official MÖRK BORG character generator. Just click away!

DNGNGEN

Need billions of accursed labyrinths and desolate murder-tombs? DNGNGEN is the
official MÖRK BORG dungeon generator. Click and make your players weep.

The Monster Approaches...

Perhaps humans are the real monsters, but if you grow tired of them, use this
monster generator to spawn an endless tide of new miscreations to murder.

Rotblack Sludge,
or The Shadow King's
Lost Heir

You are imprisoned for heretical theft, but offered one last chance of freedom;
go to the Accursed Den, find and retrieve the Shadow King's lost heir. Rotblack
Sludge is the introductory dungeon crawl adventure featured in the MÖRK BORG
core book. And here.

The Forlorn Philosopher

Despondent, brooding and equipped with sorcerous clay tablets and the power of
overanalyzing, this is the thinking scum's character class. So they claim.

The Tablets of Ochre Obscurity

Ancient, sought-after clay tablets containing Powers that only the most
enlightened mystic (or Forlorn Philosopher) can hope to wield.

A Deadly
Dungeon Duo

The Membrane of Sarkantha and the damned Sarcopha-Ghost, two devilish hazards
every death-defying dungeon delver must learn to avoid.

Devil's Tomb

The Eyes of the Icon of St Largoth have been stolen and brought to a long-lost
Graven-Tosk hellhole. Bring them back! This one-page dungeon was made using the
digital dungeon generator DNGNGEN.

Thursday.

To contribute




To be a part of this, simply write/design/draw/code content for MÖRK BORG and
send it to us. You are more than welcome to spread it to others before, during
and after our review, you may even sell it. After we receive the content we will
review it (this can take a while) and we might or might not decide to pick it up
into the MBC. If we pick it up, we will make the edits and additions we deem
necessary, but always together with the content creator. This might be
proofreading, text edits, layout, illustrations etc, depending on what the
content needs. Then, the content will be published and promoted by us, and you
are more than welcome to help spread the word.

Content restrictions




We welcome any and all content, but we especially enjoy it brief, concise,
clever, dark and weird. We like random tables, monsters, dungeons and scenarios,
strange Powers and GM tools. We prefer a user-friendly toolbox approach before a
long prose read. We rather see lots of short bullet-lists than one long text. We
want it dark, depressing and cruel, but will never accept racist, sexist,
homophobic or transphobic content. Where this line is drawn is up to us in this
case.

 

Submissions are currently closed until we have cleared up the giant backlog.
Feel free to publish using the MÖRK BORG Third Party License in the meantime!



MÖRK BORG CULT (MBC) is our sub-label for selected, approved and curated MÖRK
BORG content written by fans and laid out and illustrated by us. Digital MBC
modules will always be free to download here. Most, if not all of it, is also
available in print in MÖRK BORG CULT: FERETORY or MÖRK BORG CULT: HERETIC (soon
in stores).





Submissions are currently closed




Note: Due to the extreme amount of awesome stuff recieved, the MBC is currently
closed until we have cleared the backlog a bit.
