Codex is the monthly RPG fanzine published by the Gauntlet gaming community! Each issue features a variety of articles organized around a theme, loads of original artwork, and a custom layout.

Inside Codex - Dark 2:

Ghost Drums This LARP uses a Guatemalan ghost story as the basis for a game that explores themes of colonialism and regret. The Spanish-language version of the game is included in the downloads for this issue.

A Repast of Glum Moments Written for use in Epidiah Ravachol’s Swords Without Master, as ideas for Thunders, Feats Heroic, or even a simple roll. Also useful for inspiring fantastical tales of sorcery and mystery.

Trophy This is a dark fantasy game about psychological horror. Players are treasure-seekers pushing deeper and deeper into a forest that does not want them there. Core rules for the game are here, along with advice on how to create your own scenarios, called Incursions. A sample Incursion, The Tomb of 10,000 Dreams, is also included. Future issues of Codex will contain new Incursions and other supplemental material for Trophy.

Orchestra of Oblivion This feature contains new Bloodlines for Jay Iles’s excellent gothic horror game, Rhapsody of Blood. The downloads for this issues include separate character sheets and play aids for Orchestra of Oblivion.

Three Dozen Constellations

6 original illustrations

A custom layout by Jake Householder and Jesse Ross

The new tools for Swords Without Master and Rhapsody of Blood are good, but the reason a lot of people here is Trophy (now Trophy Dark). The thing is, they're right to be. Trophy Dark is the real deal, as far as horror games go. It's a tragedy up front [...]

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.
