(RPG PDF Spotlight) The Necroid Host: An OSR Horror Science Fiction Campaign Setting

RPG PDF Spotlights is our daily look at a recent release for a new tabletop roleplaying game, supplement or scenario, or solo journaling game, that has caught my eye. This isn’t a review, although I hope we can start offering reviews in addition to our news coverage in the future, more of a “hey guys, check this out!” shoutout.

The Necroid Host

An OSR Horror Science Fiction Campaign Setting by InfiniBadger Press

WORLDS DIE SO WE MAY LIVE

We are The Necroid Host.
We are the Everliving.
We are the Undying.
We are The Chosen of the Thirteen Chained Lords of Chaos.
We are the Instruments of the Passing of the Universe.
We are without Mercy.
We are your Eternity.
Join us and pass into Oblivion.

Millennia ago, THE NECROID HOST left their home bioplane to conquer all others. Many bioplanes fell before the SENTINELS rose to halt their advance.

Blessed by THE LAST SYSTEM LORD and powered by the souls of a dying species already decimated by The Necroid Host, Sentinels are the brightest lights that stand against the ever-encroaching dark entropy and destruction of The Necroid Host.

In this OSR horror science fiction campaign setting, you will find:

A new and exciting multiclass template class – THE SENTINEL – that allows for a new meta-adventuring play style
A comprehensive list of available powers, abilities, and equipment to create different types of Sentinels along three different roles: Bulwark, Mender, or Support
Complete details on the Necroid Host and the Thirteen Chained Lords of Chaos
Sentinel and Necroid Artifacts and Relics and rules for their creation
Lair and Lairship generation rules offering a randomized dungeon-crawling experience through Necroid bases, hulks, and derelicts
New Weapons, Armors, Gear, and Vehicles for any campaign
THE ALAZI STAR SYSTEM SETTING – a starter system providing a base of play for a complete campaign, as well as new species, creatures, and factions for ongoing use
THE SENTINELS OF SKEL – a 48-page starter adventure introducing the Necroid Host and Sentinels that acts as the launching pad for an entire new campaign

The Necroid Host Campaign Setting integrates into existing or new campaigns and is compatible with many old school science fiction and fantasy game systems.

Both high- and low-resolution PDF files are included. Updated files will be coming shortly with the ability to switch off particular layers for at-home-printing, as well as internal hyperlinking for content and some additional content.
