Skeeve, a magician‘s apprentice and wannabe thief from the dimension Klah, tries to learn the basics of magic from Master Magician Garkin for several months but to no avail. Skeeve can do little more than float a feather or light a candle using magic. Wanting to convince Skeeve that being a thief is not as good as being a magician, Garkin summons a demon. During the summoning an assassin barges into the hut, and Garkin and the assassin kill each other. Skeeve is left alone with the demon. To Skeeve’s surprise the demon politely introduces himself as Aahz. Aahz explains that demon is slang for Dimension Traveler. He further explains that there are thousands of dimensions with different races in them, and that he is from the dimension of Perv, making Aahz a Pervect, while Skeeve is a Klahd. Aahz is a master magician like Garkin but loses his magical powers during the summoning ritual (due to a practical joke played on him by Garkin) and becomes stranded in Klah. Aahz volunteers to take Skeeve on as his apprentice and teach him magic. The pair then embark on a series of misadventures.
Welcome to the Sanctum Secorum podcast. In this episode, in honor of April 1st, we’ll take the opportunity to look at the lighter side of fantasy with Robert Asprin’s Another Fine Myth!
In addition, we have bonus content to bring to your game: classes, magic items and so much more…after the jump.
With the timing of Gary Con, a last minute art submission by the talented Todd McGowan, and “con crud”, things have been a bit hectic here in the library. However, we are pleased to announce that the companion ‘zine to episode #10 is finally available!
You can grab it, for free as always, as an un-watermarked PDF at Drive-Thru RPG.
Due to a number of factors, insane prep for Gary Con, writing deadlines, work, and health as well as waiting for some last minute content to come in, the Companion ‘zine for our next episode (releasing on Friday) will be delayed. The delay will most likely be a week, and we do apologize for holding up your DCC content goodness.
We will keep you appraised to any further delays or schedule changes.
+Tim Dechene will be running The Jeweler Who Dealt in Stardust on March 20th at Toy Vault Games (575 Greenwich Ave) Warwick, Rhode Island from 12-4 PM. 3rd level pre-gens will be provided, and gamers of any experience level are welcome.
+Mike Carlson will be running “Frozen in Time” at the Marmalade Dog gaming convention, which takes place March 18-20 in Kalamazoo, MI.
Congratulations again to Keeper of Mysteries (and our very own Bacon Wizard) David Baity. His first adventure, Carnival of the Damned, is currently the hottest DCC RPG item on RPGNow/DriveThruRPG!

$14.99 for Print/PDF combo
While you are waiting for the doors to the Sanctum to reopen, and we build anticipation for our special companion issue with our first adventure (courtesy of David Baity), have you been keeping up with the Gaming & BS Podcast?
If not, now is your chance to head over and listen to Jen Brinkman as a special guest talking about DCC RPG with Sean & Brett.
After all, if we are going to keep you waiting until midnight, we should help you pass the time wisely.
The host of the G+ DCC RPG UK group, Bruce Cunnington, will be running DCC events at the UK Games Expo (UKGE), which takes place June 3-5 in Birmingham, UK. He will be joined by his partner in crime Lee Neilson. Look for the following events…
Purple Sorcerer has just announced the release of Sanctum Secorum co-host (and mighty Bacon Wizard) David Baity’s The Carnival of the Damned in both print and PDF!
“David has created something special: polished at conventions like Gary Con and Dragon Con, the adventure sports 143 digest-sized pages of clown-filled creepiness that can be used for DCC tournament play, as source material for many standard funnels, or as a massive pool of nightmare encounters that can be unleashed individually on any old-school campaign.
Featuring an awesome Doug Kovaks cover, the adventure is filled with incredible art from Simon Todd, Stan Reed, Danny Prescott, and Todd McGowan. I think you’ll love the look.
In addition to the main book, a separate printable appendix is filled with goodies including every pic from the adventure in easily printable form to use as handouts, patron spells, and paper miniatures.”
The adventure is available via RPGNow or the Purple Sorcerer Games website at $9.99 for PDF of $14.99 for print of print/pdf combo.
