Now Coming in April...

The release of the Dungeon Crawl Classics RPG has now slipped a bit - to April - which of course pushes back the release of our adventures to coincide with the new launch. I've seen the 'final polish before print' draft from Goodman Games, and it looks AWESOME, so I think the wait will be well worth it!

Regardless, it gives us more time to polish our SC adventures, and we'll push to see if we can get our first M-series adventure "Against the Vortex Temple" for 1st level characters ready for the April launch date as well!

The Wisdom of Nardgrog the Purple Sorcerer

Ahh, the years continue to mount for the purple sorcerer... and over the decades he has experienced it all. As he heeds his compulsion to share his knowledge, rest assured, Nardgrog loves those most that he playfully teases...
(And if you DO like your magic mercurial, untamed and downright dangerous, check out The Dungeon Crawl Classics RPG.)

It's alive!

The Purple Sorcerer Games website is now up and running... welcome and thanks for stopping by!

Our goal is to create exiting, affordable, fun-to-play adventures compatible with the Dungeon Crawl Classics RPG from Goodman Games. In addition, we'll continue to create useful online utilities to enhance your DCC experience. If you haven't already, check out our 0-level Party Generator and Funky Dice Roller - both due to get an update as the final DCC rules approach completion in early 2012!

The Sunken City 0-level Adventures
Our first three adventures (available at the launch of the DCC RPG) are set in the crumbling ruins of the Sunken City. Each is designed to make it easy to introduce waves of beginning characters to your world and provide a great place to kick off extended campaigns. Each  adventure will help game masters winnow 0-level mobs down to bands of hardy explorers!

SC-1: Perils of the Sunken City
Most find death in the crumbling ruins that stretch beyond sight into the mists; once rich districts now claimed by swamp and dark denizens. But for the desperate few, the ruins offer treasures the Great City denies them: fortune, glory, and a fighting chance! Learn about the Sunken City and explore the deadly dangers of Madazkan's Court.

SC-2: The Ooze Pits of Jonas Gralk
Once again the mysteries of the sunken city have called to the desperate souls of the Great City. Adventurers will find themselves calf-deep in muck on the borders of a rustic village. The local folk seem friendly enough, but the relentless croaking issuing from the swamp eats away at any sense of calm. One begins to wonder: Why does every home show signs of mourning? And who is this Jonas Gralk that all seem to mention with dark suspicion?

SC-3: A Gathering of the Marked
Rich and poor, bond and free: every midwinter an unsuspecting few awake to find a ragged circle of midnight black scrawled on their foreheads; a dark summoning whispering on the edge of their consciousness. All who live in the shadow of the Great City know to ignore the call of the mark is to invite madness and a lingering and horrific death, so each will find his way to the sending stones, and the unspeakable peril that waits beyond!

Once your players are ready to move beyond the 0-level experience, the M series of adventures (beginning with Against the Vortex Temple, available in spring 2012) will take your players on a journey from local obscurity to legendary renown!

Again, thanks for stopping by, and check back for updates as we draw closer to the DCC launch.

Strange Goings On

Since the Sorcerer Speaks blog is currently down for security maintainance, I'm reactivating the original Purple Sorcerer blog to post updates.
