The Weekly Podcast no.333 – 13 Omens, Dungeon Crawler Carl, CTHULHU Returns and Symbaroum Turns 10

Paizo, which has focused exclusively on Pathfinder and Starfinder for the past 25 years, is launching a new rules-lite, modern, supernatural horror TTRPG called 13 Omens. The game is designed by Paizo veterans Jason Bulmahn and Joe Pasini, and it is set in a dark reflection of our world beset by horrifying specters, bloodthirsty killers, and cursed places. Although few mechanical details are currently available, the description of it being “rules-lite” suggests the game will not use the Pathfinder 2E system as a base. The Dungeon Crawler Carl TTRPG from Renegade Game Studios is making history by becoming the most-followed TTRPG launch in crowdfunding, raising over $5.3 million in its first 24 hours on BackerKit. The game adapts the popular LitRPG novel series by Matt Dinniman, which chronicles the adventures of Carl and his sapient cat, Princess Donut, as they are forced to compete in a hyper-violent, 18-level World Dungeon broadcast to an intergalactic audience. The TTRPG uses a skill-based D20 system where players can choose from over 30 species and unique classes like Shotgun Messenger, and players roll all the dice while the Gamemaster takes on the role of the System AI. Cthulhu, the terrifying entity created by H.P. Lovecraft, is officially entering the Dungeons & Dragons multiverse via the upcoming 5.5e supplement, Ravenloft: The Horrors Within, which is set for release in June. The ultimate eldritch monster will be a Darklord for a new Domain of Dread known as Innsmouth and will receive a complete stat block, lore, and associated magic items. While Cthulhu was briefly included in the 1980 AD\&D *Deities & Demigods* supplement before being removed due to a copyright dispute, this release marks his triumphant, official return to core D\&D content. Free League Publishing is marking the 10th anniversary of its dark fantasy RPG Symbaroum with a new Kickstarter launching on May 19th. The campaign will feature a revised core rulebook set, which reorganizes the original content into three books, alongside a brand new campaign setting called City States of Vendilyn – A Ravaged Realm. The new setting details a realm devastated by the malevolent elves of Duskwood. Symbaroum is known for its gritty and deadly gameplay that uses a D20 roll-under core mechanic.
