Slayers of the Strange

This work is based on the Slayers RPG (found at gilarpgs.com), product of Gila RPGs, developed and authored by Spencer Campbell, and licensed for use under the Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International license (creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/).

Slayers of the Strange introduces 3 new Hunts and 2 new Classes for use with Slayers. A copy of that game is required to use these. 

The Classes are the Guerrilla  and the Knight. The Hunts are Cavities Beneath, a mission about stopping smugglers in the warrens beneath the city, The Trouble With Termites, which pits Slayers in the midst of an ongoing dispute between two factions of enormous insects, and Guardian of the Omphalos,  an action-packed adventure that culminates in an escape from a collapsing library as Slayers leap from bookshelf to enormous bookshelf.

The new classes:

• The Guerrilla, a short-range fighter whose boomerangs come back... unless they hit, of course. They use a large pool of inaccurate d4s.
• The Knight, who serves as a tank, absorbing damage taunting targets as they shift between different combat stances.

For each of the classes, a new Tactician Expert Advance has been added as well.

The new Hunts:

Cavities Beneath is a straightforward, 4-page hunt that opens with Slayers hunting down a band of smugglers on behalf of a merchant. But there's a reason no one travels to the caverns beneath the City. That reason is because the caverns are well known to be infested with monsters, the kind that Don't Need Bothering on account of all the teeth. But the Slayers are about to learn that lesson firsthand...

The Trouble With Termites is a 3-page hunt that offers something a little different. Rather than investigating a monster and beating it up, the Slayers are tossed into the middle of a business dispute. Only everyone else involved is an enormous insect. Can the Slayers bring peace to Bugtown?

Guardian of the Omphalos is a 3-page hunt that closely mimics the structure of the Hunts you'd find in the Slayers book. The Slayers have a goal (tangential to monster hunting), and they need to get inside a forbidden place to accomplish that goal. Then the fun begins as that forbidden place (the center of an enormous library) begins to collapse. This adventure is an exercise in destructible set pieces, as Slayers knock over shelves to cross wide chasms and anger Librarians who just want to be left alone.
