i am planning a campaign which is a mixture of S&S Masque of the Red Death ( also have the AD&D version ), Call of the Cthulhu d20, and steampunk thrown in the Victorian era.

are there any resources of Ravenloft Gothic Earth?

Also, try the Crossroads of Gothic Earth netbook from the old Kargatane site.

Hope that helps.

Nov 15, 2006 21:12:55 It might be amusing to work d20 Dark Matter into the mix, while you're at it. It's set in modern times, but it features many very old conspiracies and secret organizations that would have been around in the 19th century. It'd be a different feel, with the grey aliens, etoiles, mothmen and so forth, but it's horrific in an X-Files sort of way.

There's also Etherscope, a steampunk RPG that features despotic governments, Victorian super-science, and Jules Verne style space travel. Go nuts.

Of course, you have to take into account the alternate history but it's nothing a good DM can't handle.

The Back East - the South and Back East - the North sourcebooks are a treasure trove of ideas in that regard.

Those sites are bookmarked. Appears to have many goodies.

hmmm.... i totally forgot about Etherscope..
i didn't think it would be interesting because it was set in 1984 but i look over the pdf's....it totally fits my campaign mood, especially about class (upper, middle, lower, and poor ) struggle.

I order Etherscope and Space 1889, to be added to my collection.
