Old Gods of Appalachia, Cypher System | Campaign

About the adventure

Welcome, family, to a game and a place like no other. The Old Gods of Appalachia Roleplaying Game is set in an alternate Appalachia, a place filled with creatures of the Green, the Inner Dark, and things even more ancient. It’s based on the Old Gods of Appalachia podcast, a captivating eldritch horror anthology created by Steve Shell and Cam Collins. The Old Gods of Appalachia Roleplaying Game is: • An eldritch horror game set in an alternate early 1900s Appalachia, one filled with beings of immeasurable darkness and incomprehensible desires. • A collective tale of hardship, horror, hope, and heart, where every choice requires a sacrifice and your word is (or should be) your bond. • An opportunity to put aside existing stereotypes and explore the land, culture, heritage, and people of Appalachia in all their complexities, complications, and beauty.
