Tapestrist II
Over the month of October 2020, I wrote out about one background a day, ending up with 26 good ones to put together into a zine.  From the Carcinized Disciple to the Identical Twin Horn Players, there are loads of silhouettes included in here for you to bring to your own table, complete with skills and special abilities. There are a few sketches and drawings in the margins. More images may be added later, but the text is final barring any future errata. While it's pretty system-agnostic, the book is inspired by and most easily compatible with Troika-style OSR. Tapestrist II is an independent production by Daniel W. Fries and is not affiliated with the Melsonian Arts Council.
