Hello Weirdos, and welcome to yet another secret gathering of our own Weirdos’ Cool Caba… I mean, Club (🤣 am I going to try a new joke every time?)!

This post is to give access to the current draft of City of Adventure Alphabet - An A-to-Z Reference for Classic Sword and Sorcery City Adventure Design. This will be a book in the style of The Dungeon Alphabet, The Monster Alphabet and such publications by Goodman Games, but all focused on urban adventures in a sword and sorcery setting. Only Weirdos’ Cool Club members have access to this exclusive, weird and wonderful mutating piece of text!

The link will take you to the “published version” of the text I am currently working on, and it is updated every 5 minutes. I am currently working on the letter D, as “D is for Drugs”, but you will notice some notes regarding other letters. It’s not everything in there yet, but I am writing a little bit everyday, so check it out from time to time.
