Hinterland: Peoples and Perils
A downloadable zine
Hinterland: Peoples and Perils is a resource for generating locations and encounters for wilderness exploration in fantasy roleplaying games. The Hinterland is not a complete setting: it is the untamed expanse beyond the grasp of “civilization” in your fantasy world of choice.
Each encounter and locale is modular, flavorful, and reveals something about the world. Many of them link to other entries, creating a network of people and places across the landscape. All of them leave gaps for you to fill in with your own interpretations and ideas.
Inside, you will find:
- Worm-worshipers who live in a tree fort
- A furious mastodon guarding a magical pool
- A Gnome workshop with no entrances or exits
- A fungal forest inhabited by sentient apes
- An army of Elves led by a half-dragon
and more!
This project was brought to life by 135 wonderful Kickstarter backers, as part of Zine Quest 3.
If you use Hinterland in your TTRPG campaign, please let me know! I'd love to hear how it went.
