Ghostories includes everything you need for edge-of-your seat, paranormal mysteries. Explore the paranormal as innocents, investigating ghostly encounters, possessed victims, or freakish constructs. Or, delve into the arcane pursuits associated with empathy, faith, magic, meditation, the occult, science, or vigilantism. Tangle with a variety of ghosts, embodied spirits, phantoms, banes, and other creatures -- or mortal threats, such as rogue sorcerers, diabolists, mad scientists, and endowed cults. Ghostories includes special rules for investigations, fear and dementia, paranormal powers, and using connections, as well as nine scenarios, numerous story ideas, reference sheets, and over twenty ready-to-use character templates.

Ghostories is a roleplaying game designed to be both easy to learn and fast-paced. The versatile genreDiversion i (1.1) 2d6 rules make it perfect for one-shot games, extended play, or as a framework for your own ideas. Plus you can combine it with our Active Exploits Diceless System for diceless supernatural mystery adventures. genreDiversion i games can also be combined to expand gaming options--mix and match custom rules and features from one game with another, such as with Coyote Trail for Wild West Horror or Mean Streets for Film Noir Horror. Notes for adapting material from MasterBook™/Bloodshadows™ are also provided.

In short, Ghostories is fast, ready-to-use, and adaptable. You don't have to learn a complicated system, refer to scores of tables, or spend all day creating characters. The rules are easy to learn, consistent, and flexible. You can either create custom characters for the game or dive right in with any of the included templates. The game is designed to be light; it has a small footprint and extremely low price tag - it's not overloaded with tons of rules or an excess of information you just won't need. It's meant to get you running quickly so you can have a good time.

I haven't created a form-fillable sheet, but characters can fit on an index card, so plain text wouldn't be difficult. If you really want a fillable PDF, I could make one for you.

And then I discovered that what I thought was going to be a basic supplemental addition to allow me to add some ghostly elements to a d6Space game is actually what my players and I have been looking for: a way to integrate "Call of Cthulu" elements into the d6 system as a whole. You are the answer to our prayers, my friend!

Hello. Yes, it does. It is organized by type of creature, whether ghost, demonic, or otherwise.

I really love the mechanics of Genre Diversion rules. Do you have any plans of making a Lovecraft supplement for Ghost Stories? I believe most of Lovecraft's work is in the public domain now, so as long as you stick to his original works, licensing probably shouldn't be an issue.

Hi. There are no plans at this time, but I'm sure you could probably weave your own stories and monsters. I'll keep it in mind for future material though. Thanks!!!

Scanned image
These products were created by scanning an original printed edition. Most older books are in scanned image format because original digital layout files never existed or were no longer available from the publisher.

For PDF download editions, each page has been run through Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software to attempt to decipher the printed text. The result of this OCR process is placed invisibly behind the picture of each scanned page, to allow for text searching. However, any text in a given book set on a graphical background or in handwritten fonts would most likely not be picked up by the OCR software, and is therefore not searchable. Also, a few larger books may be resampled to fit into the system, and may not have this searchable text background.

For printed books, we have performed high-resolution scans of an original hardcopy of the book. We essentially digitally re-master the book. Unfortunately, the resulting quality of these books is not as high. It's the problem of making a copy of a copy. The text is fine for reading, but illustration work starts to run dark, pixellating and/or losing shades of grey. Moiré patterns may develop in photos. We mark clearly which print titles come from scanned image books so that you can make an informed purchase decision about the quality of what you will receive.

Original electronic format
These ebooks were created from the original electronic layout files, and therefore are fully text searchable. Also, their file size tends to be smaller than scanned image books. Most newer books are in the original electronic format. Both download and print editions of such books should be high quality.
