Fear Itself Shattered Veil Edition RPG

Fear Itself plunges ordinary people into a disturbing contemporary world of madness and violence —and inexorably draws them into confrontation with creatures of the Outer Dark, a realm of alien menace. GMs can re-create all the shudders and shocks of the horror genre at their table, whether they use the game’s distinctive mythology or one of their own choosing.

Powered by the GUMSHOE investigative roleplaying system, Fear Itself is ideal for one-shot horror games (where few, if any, of the protagonists are expected to survive), or ongoing campaigns in which the characters gradually discover more about the disturbing supernatural reality that hides in the shadows of the ordinary world. Will they learn how to combat the darkness? Or spiral tragically into insanity and death?

The Shattered Veil edition is a full-colour hardback book, with all new interior art and layout from our friends at Shadowlands. It features:

• Support for multiple different types of play, from bloody one-shots to mini-series and extended investigative campaigns
• Extensive advice for GMs on designing and running mystery games
• Revised psychic powers
• More monsters, plus detailed monster design rules
• Updated rules that draw from more than ten years of GUMSHOE development and play experience, to deliver the ultimate in personal horror roleplaying.
• Three sample scenarios—a one-night adventure, a mini-series, and a full campaign.
