Summoner's Remorse

A Mini-Dungeon I wrote is now available for purchase. Summoner's Remorse is an adventure for 4-6 PCs levels 5-6.

The ruins of a temple are located in a nearby forest. Long ago abandoned by its original priests, an evil cult of sorcerers has taken up residence and begun kidnapping denizens from nearby villages. Local authorities are desperate for assistance and offering a 5,000 gp reward to thwart the cult’s nefarious activities.

Mini-Dungeons are single page, double sided adventures for the Pathfinder Roleplaying Game which are setting agnostic and are easily inserted anywhere in your campaign.

This adventure can be purchased via Adventureaweek.com, DriveThruRPG, RPGNow, Paizo, and Trapdoor Playbook.

Kickstarter: Into the Wintery Gale by AAW Games

I designed the graphic layout for the Into the Wintery Gale (by AAW Games/Adventureaweek.com) Kickstarter campaign, which I am happy to announce has fully funded with $18,556 from 515 backers! This is a "viking-themed" mega-adventure written by yours truly. Look for it (and the drove of additional publications for the series) in early 2016!

Into the Wintery Gale: Custom Dice

As part of the "Into the Wintery Gale" series I'm designing for AAW Games, I also designed a trio of custom dice with elaborate Viking-esque runes gilded upon them. In the end, due to concerns with packaging and handling (we couldn't find a way to get them drop shipped with the books), they were dropped from the lineup. But the prototypes were absolutely beautiful, and I couldn't help but share them here. They would have been a fun add-on for the Kickstarter campaign, and (who knows?) maybe one day they'll still be added to the series line-up.

Endzeitgeist reviewed Ways of the Old published by AAW Games.

"Justin Andrew Mason’s fourth mini-dungeon does it right: We have a great, flavorful build-up; evocative read-aloud text…and non-combat means to resolve the danger. Traps and even a bit of investigation set-up (optional) are provided – this is great and makes the formula work in spite of its brevity. My final verdict 5 stars."
