“A secret's worth depends on the people from whom it must be kept.” (Carlos Ruiz Zafón, The Shadow of the Wind)
The Fraternity of Shadows is now accepting submissions for the 29th installment of Quoth the Raven, our annual Ravenloft netbook line that will soon be lasting longer than a lich's life. The theme for the 2022 issue will be Secrets.
Because our neverending search for knowledge always brings secrets to light, we need to expose these secrets and make them known to the Fraternity (and then use these secrets to our advantage, of course). Almost everyone has something to hide. The very fact that someone is trying to keep secrets at bay may give us a weapon against them. But we have to be careful: being within those few in the know is sometimes a double-edged sword, making us targets for other people who do not wish these secrets to be found. Be careful!
We need to know more about secret societies, dread possibilities / dark secrets, family secrets, new secret locations, secret conspiracies, etc.
"Three may keep a secret, if two of them are dead." (Franklin)
As always, we are looking for anything related to Ravenloft, Masque of the Red Death, or horror in general. The theme is deliberately open ended, but still a suggestion, not a restriction. If you have something great that doesn't fit in with the theme, send it in anyway!
Ruleset doesn't matter! We accept articles using any edition of D&D rules, or even other systems. Some of the best articles don't have any rules text at all! And if you're interested in having your rules converted to another system, let us know. There are lots of volunteers eager to help.
See our submission guidelines for official rules.
Submit your articles to QTR@fraternityofshadows.com. The deadline is September 30th, 2022, but feel free to send your articles in early, especially if you're looking for feedback.
