May 22, 2018

I’m happy to see a new horror-centric release arrive for the very popular Evil Hat Production roleplaying system, Fate. The Fate Horror Toolkit provides plenty of useful tips, tricks, mechanics and more to introduce plenty of spooks and scares into your game. Designed for GMs of all experience levels, the 152 page supplement is available in softcover from Evil Hat for $20.00 or in PDF for $10.00 from our friends at DriveThruRPG.

From Evil Hat:

Something Lurks in the Shadows

Maybe it’s a masked killer, or a creature from the unknown depths, or a psychotic porcelain doll. Or maybe it’s just a cat, and the threat stands right behind you!

The Fate Horror Toolkit offers a variety of tools, mechanics, and hacks to help you develop thematic horror in your game. Explore what horror is and how to employ it effectively at your table. Learn how to develop horrific elements in Fate—a game system designed around competent, proactive characters not usually seen in horror. Pick from a variety of mechanics to easily design your own game about the things that go bump in the night.

The Fate Horror Toolkit is a Fate Core supplement. This Toolkit includes:

Extensive tools to make scary and effective horror adversaries and running Fate games where doom is inevitable
Modified and thematic compels designed to help up the suspense and visceral horror elements in your games
A variety of new aspect types such as legacy and intensity aspects to help develop thematic horror elements and define boundaries
