“Everything from new classes to strange new locales”

Concept: “A handful of classes and items that are, if not yet proper folk lore, on the verge of reaching full folkloredom, pulled from the deep well that is 1990's culture.”
Content: Two character classes (one based on a movie starring Brandon Lee, the other on a comic by Bill Waterson) and a handful of items inspired by iconic films
Writing: Elegantly captures its source materials’ respective characters
Art/design: That rug really ties the page together
Usability: Typographical hierarchy makes for easy navigation

Concept: “A collection of deafening dungeons and auditory misadventures for MÖRK BORG.”
Content: 22 music-inspired settings and scenarios; many intriguing rules and foes; alternate Miseries; a whole spread of punishments for unruly dice
Writing: Variously fascinating and horrifying
Art/design: Widely variegated but all nicely done
Usability: A couple atypical layouts that reward a bit of scrutiny and patience

Concept: “When monsters die, you are there […] ready to bloodily wrest teeth from skull.”
Content: A necromancer who raises skeletons from sown teeth
Writing: Straightforward and direct; includes suggestions for skeletons’ dialogue
Art/design: Linear organization with public domain art that supports the concept

Concept: “Whoever claims the Bastard will have the power to rule over the land. Or to destroy it.”
Content: A frozen-wasteland-themed dungeon; also includes the badlands ranger character class
Writing: Nice descriptions but not as grimly humorous as Mörk Borg’s standard
Art/design: Also a departure from the standard, but does evoke a sense of place
Usability: Occasionally substitutes D20 terms like “check” and “AC”

Concept: “From the West she came / Her fiery wings Soared / The land withered in flame / And with her rode the Horde”

Writing: The picture of concision
Art/design: This one is a really bright, vibrant misery
Usability: Highly lethal but allergic to mulch squirrels
