Día de los Dinosaurios Muertos

Día de los Dinosaurios Muertos for EN5ider by EN Publishing is now available to supporters of EN5sider. I did the cartography for this adventure written by Jensen Toperzer and Illustrated by Mel Tillery.

You've heard of the Day of the Dead... but what happens when the dead are dinosaurs? When the raptors awaken to find their land overrun by hairless apes, they plot to reclaim their legacy. Can the PCs survive the machinations of Miquiztlicoatl, the velociraptor mummy lord, ancient reptilian priest-king of the feathered throne? This adventure for 14th-level PCs includes full-color maps, a pronunciation guide, the all-new Stone of the Inverted Sun, and - of course- intelligent undead velociraptors.

EN5ider is the new way to get regular gaming articles and adventures online. For a small monthly donation, you will receive rules articles, gaming advice, adventures, and more. You get one item per week (including one adventure per month).

This adventure is available via EN5sider.

Veranthea Codex

Veranthea Codex by Mike Myler and Rogue Genius Games is now available for purchase. I did a tremendous amount of work for the nearly 400-page book including global cartography (5 world maps in all), over one hundred illustrations, all of the pay layout designs, touch-up and modification work for public domain artwork, and the cover layout.

Within these pages are entire player classes, numerous archetypes, new feats, new races, and over 100 base class NPCs perfect for use in any Pathfinder Roleplaying Game.

Whether you’re an adventurer in the grip of Grethadnis’ internecine conflicts, finding your destiny in Urethiel, advancing your monstrous stake in Trectoyri, searching through the Forever Dark for technological glory, or a player interested in the goblin pistoleer gunslinger, merchanteer paladin, or scientific innovator, or a GM looking for a bigger roster of enemies and challenges for their group—the world’s most radical Pathfinder campaign setting is for you!

This book is available via DriveThruRPG, RPGNow, and Paizo.

Jarrikol Industries Website (Hypercorps 2099)

As part of the launch campaign for the Hypercorps 2099 kickstarter by Mike Myler and Legendary Games, I developed an interactive "themed" website based on "Jarrikol Industries" which is one of the fictional Hypercorporations in the setting. The site provided access to promo videos, free books, character sheets and a mobile app game.

Endzeitgeist reviewed The Lapis Maiden of Serena Hortum published by AAW Games.

"Justin Andrew Mason’s Mini-Dungeon is compelling – either as straight-forward hack and slay or as an infiltration, this one offers a nice story, a cool backdrop, diverse challenges and even a bit of social interaction, this is a great example of what can be done with a straight-forward, smart application of the limiting mini-dungeon-formula. My final verdict will clock in at 5 stars."

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."
