Ghoulish Grin Issue 1: MÖRK BORG Compatible Zine

HIDEOUS COSMIC SECRETS AND THOSE WHO BEAR THEM. A shuddering Chtulhian RUIN of an RPG Zine, compatible with MÖRK BORG!

Rips back the grubby veil of reality and unleashes a tide of COSMIC HORROR upon the Dying World.

Bolster the ranks of DOOMED SCVM with two new player classes – The Brain-Blasted Scholar and the Deposed Cult Leader.

Lure and entrap your SCVM with Lovecraftian magics held within the invasive SCROLLS OF SOTHOTH. Turn back time, jump to the moon, summon an embassy from Dim Carcosa!

Punish your SCVMs' magical hubris with twenty Eldritch Calamities. Make them something other than human with the Twisted Forms Table. Then pit them against eight types of bloodthirsty cosmic cultists, from human to inhuman to questionable.

Tremble before the Revelation system! Easy rules for unleashing cosmic mutations both physical and mental upon your hapless characters. Swap minds with a Yithian! Sprout tentacles! Grow a black hole out of your skull! Lick a SHOGGOTH!

Witness the unwholesome power of four Lovecraftian gods, with quick and easy tables for adding their influence to the Dying World.

Draws upon the works of H. P. Lovecraft, Robert W. Chambers, and William Hope Hodgson.

A 28-page bookmarked PDF stuffed full of art made by people long dead and remixed by Richard Marpole. 

Designed, written and assembled by Richard Marpole. 

EXTRAS!

The Toothless Edition – A sad clone of the main edition, with the art smashed out of it, its wilder fonts brought to heel, its contents brutally squashed together and reorganised. It stands before you, weeping, bleeding, monochrome, containing all the same information as its cursed original in a more accessible format.

Art Cards for Nerds – Two art cards which give a little bit of background on a couple of the public domain images used in this edition - the Tanzmasken and The Druids, including links so you can track down the originals yourself.
