Introduction
"Legend has it that it was written by the Dark Ones. Necronomicon ex Mortis, roughly translated,
"Book of the Dead". The book served as a passageway to the evil worlds beyond. It was written long ago.
When the seas ran red with blood. It was this blood that was used to ink the book. In the year 1300 AD,
the book disappeared."
Professor Knowby, Evil Dead II
Evil Dead: Swallow This! is a d20 Modern

campaign supplement. It requires the d20
Modern rules to play.
The first half of the supplement is suitable for
players and Game Masters. The last half is for
Game Masters only. This document's headers
use the Evil Dead fonts.
Summary
Modern heroes battle the forces of the
damned across time.
Campaign in Brief
This campaign is a D20 Modern and Fantasy
supplement. It requires use of the d20 Modern
book to play but relies heavily on the d20
Fantasy rules as well.
It's the 1990s and the Book of the Dead has
just become the New York Time's bestseller.
Oprah recommends it. Of course, Oprah's a
deadite twin, but she was on TV long enough to
tell the gullible masses about how great a book
about sacrificing people to demons is. And of
course, said gullible masses lap it up like the
tripe-reading sheep they are.
One reading of the book caused mass havoc
at Knowby's cabin and left several people dead.
Imagine kids and adults everywhere reading the
book out loud and opening portals to hell all
across the globe.
The heroes have their work cut out for them
and a variety of implements to cut with, including
knives, axes, and chainsaws. Reality is a living
hell literally. But there's a catch.
The book has been used to summon
demons, but it's also been used to send them
back. If the PCs can just discover the right spell
to send them backwards in time from the original
book, they might have a chance to stop the
madness before it starts.
The Role of the Heroes

Evil Dead: Swallow This! is a plot of utter
ludicrousness the forces of evil have been
summoned by an incantation into our world and
now the heroes must deal with the
consequences. Of course, the forces of evil are
immortal they do not distinguish differences in
time and space. If the heroes are to defeat the
demons, they must fight the forces of hell on
their own terms, wherever or whenever it may
be.
The heroes are also more than a little crazy.
After look into the pulsating, pustule-ridden heart
of evil, how can anyone stay sane? And yet
they battle on. Insanity is common the PCs
are likely to be pushed to the brink of madness
just by dealing with the forces of evil. Then they
fall off the edge, smash into the bottom of the
gorge, and the cliff falls on top of them. And
they STILL keep fighting.
For all their eccentricities, the heroes are
normal Joes. They make bad decisions, run
screaming in the face of Ultimate Evil, and get
cocky when loaded with a lot of firepower. They
don't always do the right thing, don't always cast
the right spell, and miss with the bad guys even
with several well-placed shotgun blasts. But
they do what they have to, because nobody else
will.
The heroes are as much pulp fiction
eccentrics as they are the last hope of mankind.
Only they know just how fragile the borders
between our reality and hell are. Only they
know the things that lurk in the dark. And only
they are mad enough to level a shotgun at said
thing and blow its screeching head off.
If you've ever screamed, "Why don't you get
a gun and SHOOT IT!" at the pathetic victims of
any horror moviethis is the game for you.
Department 7
Part of the appeal of Evil Dead is that it's
protagonist is a regular Joe who has just had
enough. He's not specially trained and he uses
only the stuff within arm's reach to deal with the
worst Hell has to offer. You've gotta love Ash.
But if the world was going to Hell in a
handbasket as a result of Ash's bungling, you
better believe Department 7 would be out in full
force. PCs could play Department 7 agents
dispatched to deal with more and more frequent
outbreaks of deadite zombies, skeletons, and
twins. And hell, maybe even a deadite pig or
two.
Theme
Evil Dead: Swallow This! is a frenetic, actionpacked battle with the forces of evil that never
lets up. An Evil Dead campaign can be darkly
terrifying, as demons taunts the heroes, threaten
their loved ones, and possess everything from
their pets to their own body parts. Evil never lets
up it keeps coming and coming and coming
until somebody drops.
Evil Dead is disgusting. These are demons
we're talking about. Eyeballs fly, guts spew,
blood gushes, and heads explode. People get
their eyes smashed in, hands chopped off, and
throats slashed. Evil Dead has a high body
count.
But Evil Dead has another side. Evil Dead
doesn't take itself too seriously. How could
anyone take the forces of Hell seriously when
they cackle with glee, chortle evilly, and scream
dire threats like, "I'll swallow your soul!"
Evil Dead is the logical extension of the
horror movies of the 70s. In the 70s, the slow,
shambling zombies and the demonic possession
of loved ones by unclean forces horrified people.
In the 80s, people fight back with everything
they have at their disposal, from drills to axes to
shotguns to chainsaws. Part action, part
comedy, part horror, an Evil Dead campaign is
an insane mishmash of all three.
Background
It all began when Professor Raymond
Knowby and his wife Henrietta rented a small
cabin in the woods where he could concentrate
on translating the Book of the Dead, an ancient
demonic text hed excavated in the ruins of
Kandar earlier that year. He recorded aloud the
phonetic translations of awaken Kandarian
spells, and by doing so unwittingly unleashed an
evil force that possessed his wife and tried to kill

him. He survived the attack, but mysteriously
died later that week; whatever evil was revived
by his translations returned to its slumber.
A week later five college kids, including SMart employee of the month Ash, rented the
cabin for a weekend. They found the book, an
ancient bone-dagger, and a tape player of the
professors translations. Playing the tape
reawakens the Kandarians, possessing each of
them one in turn and turning them into deadite
zombies.
Ash is the only survivor, but discovers he is
trapped: the bridge leading back to civilization
has been totally destroyed. The sun sets and he
retreats back to the cabin, where he encounters
a deadite twin. After a brief tussle, Ash's hand
becomes infected and he is forced to lop it off.
With a chainsaw.
The next day, the professors daughter,
Annie Knowby, shows up along with a few
others, expecting to meet her parents. She has
missing pages from the Necronomicon ex
Mortis. The deadites return. It's about this time
that Ash decides a chainsaw makes a better
hand and, using his Craft (mechanical) skill and
S-mart knowledge, straps the chainsaw to his
stump.
The ghost of Raymond Knowby explains that
the Book of the Dead contains a spell,
time/space rift to banish the evil. When they find
the missing pages from the book, Annie begins
to read the spell...but is stabbed in the back with
the ancient dagger by Ash's demonic severed
hand. She finishes the spell with her dying
breath and the vortex opens, sucking the evil,
Ash (chainsaw-arm, shotgun and all) and his
Delta 88 into the past.
Ash lands in fourteenth-century England,
where King Arthur is under siege by deadites.
They suspect Ash of being a rival kings soldier
and take him prisoner. As if that wasn't enough,
they toss him into a pit of deadites, but Ash
manages to explain the situation more succinctly
with his "boomstick."
Now convinced that Ash is the Hero from the
Sky prophesied by the Book of the Dead to
save them from the deadites, Arthur sends Ash
into a haunted graveyard to retrieve the book so
they can destroy the evil once and for all.
But Ash is the idiot we all know and love. He
mispronounces the spell and by doing so,
accidentally awakens an army of skeletal
deadites.
Ash unites both Arthur and his rival Henry's

men and leads them into combat against the
deadites using White Scimitar and a modified
version of his Oldsmobile (the "Deathcoaster").
Ash defeats his deadite twin yet again.
Arthur's wise-men use the book to cast
create time drops and send Ash home, where he
returns to his job as S-Mart housewares clerk
and meets a new girl, Jenny, assistant manager
of Arts and Crafts and S- Marts employee of the
year.
Eight years pass and Ash begins to have
nightmares and hallucinations of the deadites
and the evil in the woods. Jenny convinces him
to go back to the old cabin in the woods, to face
down his fears and prove to himself that
nothings there.
Did we mention Ash is an idiot? And we're
not too sure about Jenny either?
Amazingly enough, nobody has cleaned,
burned, or buried the Knowby cabin. Indeed,
everything is where it was, including the tape
player and Ash's old hand. Ash's possessed
hand switches on the tape player and awakens
the Kandarians for a third time.
Well, one Kandarian in particular. Evil Ash
shows up, grabs the babe (does it really matter
what her name is?) and dives through a
time/space rift. Oh, and on the way out, he
tosses the Book of the Dead to the four winds.
Pages fly everywhere and everywhen.
Things get complicated from there, if that's
possible. Ash meets Abdul-Azeez, the original
author of the Necronomicon ex Mortis. This
doesn't quite explain the theory that it was
written "over three thousand years ago" in
modern times, but perhaps Abdul collated more
ancient Sumerian material into one book.
With Abdul's help, Ash thwarts a mysterious
cult seeking to bring the deadites through a
portal during an eclipse. Ash collects the pages,
rescues Jenny, defeats Evil Ash for the
umpteenth time, and opens yet another
time/space rift. Except Ash loses his grip on the
book in the rift on the way back to his own time.
The book arrives eight years earlier and is
found by an unknown publisher who thinks, "Oh
look, a book filled with disgusting pages about
how to summon the forces of hell!" Then
he/she/it publishes the thing and it becomes a
best seller. People will read anything these
days.
Well as you can probably imagine, the world
goes down the poop shoot pretty quickly after
that. One kid tries the ritual out, then all the kids
are doing it, and pretty soon, deadites are
everywhere.
That's where the heroes come in.

Buzzsaw
Handgun
Sort of like a chainsaw only it's a spinning

wheel rather than an oval-shaped blade.
Buzzsaws spin faster and inflict more damage
as a result. The chain saw's still cooler. They
didn't call it "Buzzsaw Massacre" did they?
It's rare that the good guys get their hands on

a weapon like a handgun. This is at least due in
part to the fact that handguns fire wussy bullets
that tend to make squishy meaty sounds in
deadites but otherwise have little effect.
Chain saw
Handgun, Nail
Every S-mart employee knows a chain saw

can be used to cut down cumbersome tree
branches, chop up firewood, and decapitate
charging deadites with long snaky necks in slow
motion. What you didn't know that? That's
right, chain saws are messy, but they get the job
done and make a nice blended mix of blood and
guts in deadite corpses. Just remember to keep
the thing gassed up.
One of the benefits of being an S-mart

employee is good old-fashioned know-how. An
S-mart employee always gets the job done, gets
it done right, and gets it done right the first time.
S-mart employees are smart, dependable,
fastidious, with a ready smile and infinite
knowledge of every item in inventory. And Smart employees know how to improvise. That's
why nail handguns exist. It requires a Craft
(mechanical) check (DC 17) to create a handgun
that fires nails. All it requires is nails and a
handgun. Of course.
Chain saw, Demon

We know, we know, we're thinking the same
thing you are. "How could a chainsaw possibly
be even more groovy?" Well wonder no more!
Demon chain saws have the kind of wicked
blades that could only be crafted by the forces of
hell. And did we mention they kick twice as
much ass as regular chainsaws? Four out of
five deadites agree. At least they did at the time
of our clinical trial.
Hatchet
This light axe is a chopping tool that deals
slashing damage when employed as a weapon.
Remember, the only way to stop a deadite is to
dismember it. So make like Washington, pronto.
Knife
Rifle, Winchester 94
This category of weapon includes hunting

knives, butterfly or balisong knives,
switchblades, and bayonets (when not attached
to rifles). A character can select the Weapon
Finesse feat to apply his or her Dexterity
modifier instead of Strength modifier to attack
rolls with a knife.
The Winchester Model 94 Big Bore is a leveraction rifle typical of big-bore hunting rifles found
around the world. Shotguns are more
impressive, but a big ole hunting rifle does the
job in a pinch.
Pistol Whip
Rifle Butt
A bolt-action rifle with a reputation for

accuracy, the Remington 700 has been popular
with hunters and target shooters since its
introduction in the 1940s. Whether its deadites,
doors, or primitive screwheads, shotguns get the
job done. They blow through everything, make
a lot of noise, and are especially useful in
silencing a room. Shotguns: the last word in
witty repartee.
The butt of a rifle can be used as an

impromptu club.
Shotgun, Rock-Salt
Using a handgun as a melee weapon can

deal greater damage than attacking unarmed.
No weight or purchase DC is given for this
weapon, since both vary depending on the
handgun used.
Rifle, Spike
For the vindictive deadite hunter, a modified
rifle can fire spikes instead. These stick out of
corpses and tend to make them look like big,
bloody pincushions when you're done. Keep
them away from velour fabrics, the spikes tend
to tear. It requires a Craft (mechanical) check
(DC 17) to make a spike rifle.
Shotgun, Remington 700
Ever wonder what it would feel like if

someone shot you at point blank range with a
shotgun? Ouch, right? Well how about if
someone jammed salt into your wounds! This
sucker sends even deadites crying to their hellmommies. It requires a Craft (mechanical) check
(DC 19) to create.
Spells
"It deals with demons and demon resurrection and those forces, which roam the forest and dark
bowers of man's domain. The first few pages warn that these enduring creatures may lie dormant but are
never truly dead. They may be recalled to active life through the incantations presented in this book. It is
through recitation of these passages that the demons are given license to possess the living."
- Professor Knowby, Evil Dead

Effect: Up to 16 HD worth of summoned
outsiders, no two of which can be more than 30
ft. apart when they appear
Duration: Instantaneous
Saving Throw: None
Spell Resistance: No
By casting this spell, the caster awakens an

6.
Create Time Drops

Conjuration (Creation)
Level: Arcane 5
Components: V, M
Effect: Up to 1 drop per/level
Saving Throw: None
Spell Resistance: Yes
This spell creates a liquid that, when drunk,
causes the drinker to be placed into a state of
suspended animation for 100 years per drop
consumed. For the creature, time ceases to flow
and its condition becomes fixed. The creature
does not grow older. Its body functions virtually
cease, and no force or effect can harm it.
However, any equipment on the creature ages
and will rust, rot, or otherwise succumb to the
effects of time. Drinking the drops increases the
drinker's Madness Rating by 1 per drop

consumed.
Greater Dispel Evil

Abjuration [Good]
Level: Arcane 5
Components: V
Casting Time: 1 attack action
Range: Long (400 ft. + 40 ft./level)
Target or Targets: 1 evil outsider per level of
the caster
Duration: 1 round/level or until discharged,
whichever comes first
Saving Throw: Will
Shimmering, white, holy energy surrounds
the character. Every evil outsider in range must
make a Will save or be driven back to its home
plane. The verbal component is "Clatoo, verata,
Nicto."
Lesser Awaken Kandarian

Conjuration (Calling) [Evil]
Level: Arcane 3
Components: V
Casting Time: 1 round
Effect: Up to 8 HD worth of summoned
outsiders, no two of which can be more than 30
ft. apart when they appear
Saving Throw: None
By casting this spell, the caster awakens an

"Tatra Ormistroben azarta. Tantermono
monzezonzomozezobar. Zomontorozo
dalhiclerdom deridsa Kandar, Kandar, Kandar!"
Casting this spell increases the caster's
Madness Rating by 3.
Manifest the Flesh
Familiarity
Transmutation
Level: Arcane 4
Components: V
Range: Long (400 ft. + 40 ft./level)
Target: 1 Ethereal being/level
Duration: 1 round/level (D)
Saving Throw: Will
Very familiar
Studied
carefully
Seen
casually
Viewed
once
Description
This spell forces Ethereal beings to manifest

in the Prime Material Plane. The target becomes
physical, along with its equipment. When the
spell expires, the target returns to its Ethereal
existence. The verbal component is, "Nos
veratos alamemnon conda." Casting this spell
increases the caster's Madness Rating by 7.
Familiarity: "Very familiar" is a place where

the character has been very often and where the
character feels at home. "Studied carefully" is a
place the character knows well, either because
the character has been there often or the
character has used other means (such as
scrying) to study the place. "Seen casually" is a
place that the character has seen more than
once but with which the character is not very
familiar. "Viewed once" is a place that the
character has seen once, possibly using magic.
"Description" is a place whose location and
appearance the character knows through
someone elses description, perhaps even from
a precise map. "False destination" is a place that
doesnt exist. When traveling to a false
destination, roll 1d20+80 to obtain results on the
table, rather than rolling d%, since there is no
real destination for the character to hope to
arrive at or even be off target from.
Time/Space Rift
Conjuration (Creation, Calling)
Level: Arcane 5
Components: V
Range: Medium (100 ft. + 10 ft./level)
Effect: Cyclone 10 ft. wide at base, 30 ft. wide
at opening, and 30 ft. long
Saving Throw: None
This spell creates an unstable rift in time and
space. The time/space rift itself is a whirling
vortex oriented in the direction of the caster
when it comes into existence. It is a onedimensional window into time, and anyone or
anything that moves through is shunted instantly
to another part of the timestream.
While the time/space rift is in existence, all
flames are extinguished and all ranged attacks
are impossible (even with siege weapons), as
are Listen checks. Creatures who are Large size
or smaller must make a Reflex save (DC 30) or
be blown away, sucked into the rift. Creatures
of Huge size that failt their Reflex save are
knocked down while creatures of Gargantuan or
Colossal size are checked. Those who come in
contact with the actual funnel cloud are picked
up and whirled around for 1d10 rounds, taking
1d6 points of damage per round, before being
violently expelled into the target timeline.
To see how well the time/space rift works, roll
d% and consult the below table.

On Target: The character appears when the

character wants to be.
Off Target: The character appears safely a
random distance away from the destination in a
random direction. Time off target is 1d10 x 1d10
years of the target time that was to be traveled
to. The DM determines the time off target
randomly, such as by rolling 1d4 and
designating 1-2 as the past, 3-4 as the future.
Close to Target: The character winds up in
a time close to the target date by a range of
1d10 years.
Mishap: The character and anyone else
going through the gate is "scrambled." The
travelers each take 1d10 points of damage, and
the character rerolls on the chart to see where
the travelers wind up. For these rerolls, roll
1d20+80. Each time "Mishap" comes up, the
characters take more damage and must reroll.
The unstable time/space rift remains open
only for a brief time (no more than 1 round per
caster level). Entering the gate increases the
traveler's Madness Rating by 8.
Madness
"Why would you say that I am insane? I wouldn't say that I've lost my mind simply because I've heard
the voices and seen the godless things moving in the woods. If anything, I think more clearly now than
ever before."
- Ash, Army of Darkness
All characters begin with a Madness rating of

25 minute their Wisdom. When a character's
Madness Rating (MR) reaches 25, the character
goes insane. A rating of 0 is a normal, welladjusted person.
Madness Check, he suffers a Madness Effect.

Each time a character loses 3 MR, he can
remove the most recent Madness Effect. The
Madness Check is modified by the current
Madness Rating of the character.
MADNESS TRIGGERS
The ability loss effects of Madness are

cumulative, but not permanent. All ability losses
last until a character drops a Madness Rating
rank. Each time a character drops a MR rank,
he regains 1d4 lost ability points. Characters
whose Madness is reduced to zero recover lost
ability points at a rate of one per day of total
rest. If at any time any of a character's abilities
drops to 0 as a result of Madness, he becomes
an insane NPC. Extensive treatment from
trained medical personnel might heal someone
with a Madness Rating as high as 24. Nothing
short of a miracle (e.g., heal, miracle, wish) can
bring a character back from a Madness Rating
of 25 or higher.
Injury: Whenever a character loses

50% or more of his hit points to a single
attack.
Death: Any time a character witnesses
the death of a party member or loved
one.
Supernatural: Any time a character
sees a FX used or encounters a
monster.
MADNESS CHECK
A Madness Check consists of a Will Save
(DC 6 + MR modifiers). If the character fails the

Time Travel
"In order to rid myself of the foul thing, I read from a passage in the book that was supposed to open a
hole. A hole in Time that would send the Evil back. And it worked...I just didn't plan on coming along.
--Ash, Army of Darkness
It's scary enough to consider that the

Kandarians are hell-bent on taking over the
world. Worse, Kandarians do not perceive any
differences in time they'll take over the world
now, yesterday, or tomorrow, it makes no
difference to them.
Of course, time travel adds an element to the
game that not all Game Masters may be
interested in. But certainly, if the campaign
starts to get stale, time travel spices it up. Even
better, the inherent compatibility with the d20
system allows easy conversion between
different genres.
There are a few theories on time travel:
Parallel Universe
One cannot go backwards in time to affect
one's current time stream. At best, a time
traveler can alter the timeline so that fate doesn't
exist in the current reality. That is, the timeline
diverges upon time travel happening, creating a
unique timeline. Somewhere, the Kandarians
still win. However, in the universe the time
traveler is in, it's a new world.
This theory of time travel does not make for
happy endings. It means Kandarians can never
be defeated by traveling into the past. Not one
but two alternate endings have been suggested
for the Evil Dead universe both end with the
deadites obliterating mankind.
How It Works
Time travel to the past can only be achieved
through magic (see the Spells chapter). Being
sucked into a twister isn't pleasant even when
the twisters aren't time traveling vortexes.
Beings sucked into the void float weightless,
tumbling endlessly in the funnel cloud.
For a moment, there is no sound at all. Then
a bright flash of light. The time travelers appear
in a bolt of electricity from the sky, spewed out of
the heavens and falling to the ground with a
crash.
Time travel to the future is achieved by
magical drops (see the Spells chapter). These
drops don't really cause the recipient to time
travel. Rather, he is placed into a form of
suspended animation, unharmed, until the
designated time is reached. The spell does not
protect the traveler's possessions, which means
he awakens from a deep sleep naked and
confused. Sort of like every morning, only in
another time.
Suggested Products
Time travel suits itself well to the d20 system.
Simply pick your favorite game and mix it with
the Evil Dead rules found here: voila! Deadites
in any system.
Unified Time stream
Time takes place across one reality. By

killing off someone in the past, you affect the
future. This of course can cause paradoxes
you could kill your own father, which means you
shouldn't be able to exist to go back in time to
kill your father in the first place. The Evil Dead
series hints that this is the "real" theory, as Ash
reads about a "hero from the sky" and even
sees a sketch of a guy holding a chainsaw
without realizing that he is that hero.

Morturom Demonto
This is the translated, New York Times
bestseller version of the Necronomicon Ex
Mortis. It conveniently leaves out the dispelling
spells and contains all the awakening spells:
awaken Kandarian, lesser awaken Kandarian.
Reading the volume takes 1 week to

Necronomicon Ex Mortis
This book is known by a lot of names,
including Morturom Demonto, Natorum
Demonto, and Nosferato Domentu. It is best
known as Necronomicon Ex Mortis. Professor
Knowby obviously didn't know what the hell he
was talking when he translated this book. Since
the word "Necronomicon" already means Book
of the Dead, "Necronomicon Ex Mortis"
translates to "List of Dead Names is Dead".
Whatever. The Book of the Dead is bound in

human flesh and inked in human blood. A
twisted face is on its cover. Inside, there are
pictures and diagrams of skulls, monsters, eyes,
demons, and some kind of writing that is
unintelligible. It contains the following spells:
awaken Kandarian, create time drops, dispel
evil, greater dispel evil, lesser awaken
Kandarian, manifest the flesh, time/space rift.
Translating any particular spell requires a
Decipher Script check (DC 30). Reading the

Scimitar of Sacrifice
This +1 scimitar's blade is pretty big and
seems to be made of an actual spine. It has a
small skull on the pommel, and it looks like it is
wearing a ribcage helmet. It deals +2d6 points of
bonus unholy (evil) damage against all of good
alignment. Any time it deals damage to a
creature, bleeds for 1 point of damage per round
thereafter in addition to the normal damage the
scimitar of sacrifice inflicts. Multiple wounds from
the scimitar of sacrifice result in cumulative
bleeding loss (two wounds for 2 points of
damage per round, and so on). The bleeding
can only be stopped by a successful Heal check
(DC 15) or the application of any cure spell or
other healing spell (heal, healing circle, and so
on). Every wound inflicted by the wielder that
bleeds causes the wielder to increase his
Madness Rank by 1.

that whatever I have resurrected through this book is sure to come calling... for me."

The only thing worse than a harpy is a

deadite harpy because they have all the ugly
looks but none of the charm abilities. It's like
having non-alcoholic beer the one good thing
going for it is missing. That pretty much makes
ruins it for everybody.
These ugly hag-bitches are more common in
medieval times. Back then, floppy-breasted old

were an everyday occurrence. No, really.

Awww, come on now. It's a freaking pig.
Pigs are stupid, smelly, ugly anddid we
mention stupid and ugly? And the smell? Yeah,
pigs suck.
So why the hell demons would possess a
pig's fatty, greasy ass is anybody's guess.
Scholarly types might suggest that this is a
Jesus thing and that he banished demons into
pigs so they sort of have a thing for the

porkchop. Don't believe it.
These are the deadites who are really
unpopular but don't know it. They make fun of
the deadite trees and don't realize the deadite
trees are making fun of them. They probably
think being a pig makes them cool. The joke's
on them.
There is nothing redeeming about a deadite
pig, except for maybe the fact that the ASPCA
doesn't have as much of a problem with them
being blown right off of their ugly pig feet.
Combat
Deadite pigs are filthier, nastier, and fatter
than normal pigs. This makes them amazingly
hardy, such that even a point-blank blast with a
rifle doesn't stop them. When fighting a deadite
pig, explosives, preferably of the nuclear kind,
work best.
Ferocity (Ex): A deadite pig is such a
tenacious combatant that it continues to fight
without penalty even while disabled or dying.

Deadite skeletons, like all things filled with
deadite evilness, are smarter and faster than the
typical skeletons. Guess they didn't read the
monster handbook.
Combat
When you're a deadite skeleton, life isn't

filled with a lot of options. So they make the
best of it by playing dead after all, how can
you really tell when something that was already
dead is dead again? Then they spring up and
attack. It's a cheesy tactic, but deadite
skeletons pull it off. Which is why we like to
introduce them to Mr. Shotgun, who doesn't give
them the opportunity to pretend they're anything
but chalk.
Illusory Death (Ex): In any round a deadite
skeleton is struck for 6 or more points of
damage by a single weapon, it slumps to the
ground as if dead. On its next round, the
deadite skeleton rises again as if through
reanimation. Any creature viewing this must
succeed at a Will save (DC 10) or become
panicked for 2d4 rounds.
Immunities (Ex): Deadite skeletons have
cold immunity. Because they lack flesh or
internal organs, they take only half damage from
piercing or slashing weapons.

Stick a Kandarian demon in a deadite tree
and you get one pissed off demon. Kandarians
seriously enjoy possessing things that can
scream, shout, dance, and giggle incoherently.
Trees. Just. Sit. There.
So deadite trees are angry mothers, not
above brutalizing and mutilating anything they
can get their hands on. They attack in groups
and congregate around portals to hell. They are
quite powerful (despite their less-than-desirable
hosts) but are considered to be the rabble by
proper deadites.
Combat
Deadite trees prefer to watch potential foes

carefully before attacking. They often charge
suddenly from cover to trample the foes. When
attacking structures, they animate trees as
reinforcements.
Animate Trees (Sp): A Deadite tree can
animate trees within 180 feet at will, controlling
up to two trees at a time. It takes a full round for
a normal tree to uproot itself. Thereafter it
moves at a speed of 10 and fights as a Deadite
tree in all respects. Animated trees lose their
ability to move if the Deadite tree that animated
them is incapacitated or moves out of range.
The ability is otherwise similar to liveoak as cast
by a 12th-level druid.
Trample (Ex): A Deadite tree or animated
tree can trample Medium-size or smaller
creatures for 2d12+5 points of damage.
Opponents who do not make attacks of
opportunity against the Deadite tree or animated
tree can attempt a Reflex save (DC 20) to halve
the damage.
Double Damage against Objects (Ex): A
Deadite tree or animated tree that makes a full
attack against an object or structure deals
double damage.
Plant: Immune to mind-influencing effects,
poison, sleep, paralysis, stunning, and
polymorphing. Not subject to critical hits.
damage.
Half Damage from Piercing (Ex): Piercing
weapons deal only half damage to Deadite
trees, with a minimum of 1 point of damage.
Skills: Deadite trees receive skills as though
they were fey*. They have a +16 racial bonus to
Hide checks made in forested areas.
Deadite Twin
A deadite twin is a physical duplicate of a
specific humanoid, called a primary. Although a
deadite twin does not gain the specific life
experiences of its primary, it can easily mimic
the demeanor and general behavior of the
primary, enabling it to fill the same general role
as the primary. A deadite twin is identical in
appearance to the primary.
Deadite twins are bad news. They are
obsessed with everything the primary has and
want to destroy it, warp it, crap on it, degrade it,
make fun of it, and worse. They hate their
counterparts with a passion and are fond of
calling themselves, "Evil-whatever." That's right,
if Cecil gets a deadite twin, there'll be an Evil
Cecil running around.
Deadite twins are usually created when a
humanoid looks into a mirror or succeeds a Will
save from a Carnarian demon's attack.
Humanoids who are stubbornly resistant to
possession get their own deadite twins as an
extra special gift from hell. A Will save (DC 30)
is necessary to avoid this attack. The
experience alone increases the character's
Madness Rating by 5.
If the mirror is shattered in the same round
when a deadite twin is forming, it forms 1d20
Tiny-sized twins instead. These mini-deadites
are all just like the primary, just smaller. They
will try to subdue the primary with the purpose of
entering an orifice (doesn't have to be the mouth
ewwww!). If even one mini-deadite gets inside
the primary, it will form a fully formed deadite
twin in 1d10+10 rounds. The process is
extremely painful as the deadite twin "buds" off
of the primary, and inflicts 2d10 points of
damage to the primary in the process.

The problem with deadite zombies is that

they're not slow, shambling morons. They're
fast and smart and bitter about life. In fact, they
never shut up.
Combat
Deadite zombies fly like drunken fools,
hurling themselves at their nearest foes so they
can eat them. They enjoy biting but will use
anything they can get their hands on as a
weapon. Aim for the head it may not kill them,
but it will stop the endless taunts.

zombies are utterly powerless in natural sunlight
Kandarian
It's hard to say precisely what a Kandarian is.
They come off as thoroughly insane to normal
human beings, and that's just how Kandarians
like it. They are so named after the Kandarian
ruins where the Naturon Demonto, also known
as the Book of the Dead, was found. The good
Professor Knowby accidentally released the
Kandarians by reading an incantation aloud (see
the Spells chapter for more information).
"Kandarian" is a template that can be added
to any object or creature. The creature's type
changes to undead. It uses all the character's
statistics and special abilities except as noted
here.
Hit Dice: Increase to d12.
Speed: Kandarians have a fly speed of 30
feet, unless the base creature has a higher fly
speed, with perfect maneuverability.
Defense: Natural armor is the same as the
base creature but applies only to ethereal
encounters. When the Kandarian manifests (see
below) its natural armor value is +0, but it gains
a deflection bonus equal to its Charisma
modifier or +1, whichever is higher.
Attacks: The Kandarian retains all the
attacks of the base creature.
Damage: The Kandarian retains all the
damage of the base creature.
Special Attacks: The Kandarian retains all
the special attacks of the base creature.
Manifestation (Su): All Kandarians have this
ability. As ethereal creatures, they cannot affect
or be affected by anything in the material world.
When they manifest, Kandarians become visible
but remain incorporeal. However, a manifested
Kandarian can strike with its touch attack or a
Kandarian touch weapon. A manifested
Kandarian remains on the Ethereal Plane but
can be attacked by opponents on both the
Material and Ethereal planes.
Malevolence (Su): Once per round, an
ethereal Kandarian can merge its body with a
creature on the Material Plane. This ability is
similar to magic jar as cast by a 10th-level
sorcerer (or the Kandarians character level,
whichever is higher), except that it does not
require a receptacle. If the attack succeeds, the
Kandarians body vanishes into the opponents
body. The target can resist the attack with a
successful Will save (DC 15 + Kandarians
Charisma modifier). A creature that successfully
saves is immune to that Kandarians

malevolence for one day.
Deadite Curse (Su): Any living humanoid
harmed by a Kandarian's attack must succeed
on a Fortitude save (DC 15) or become a
deadite zombie in 1d10 rounds. If the victim
makes his Fortitude save but only by 1, he is
partially possessed. Partial possession is awful
whatever limb was bitten or clawed can be
turned against the owner on a failed Will save
(DC 20) for one round. There's only one known
way to stop a limb from continuing to attack, and
that's by chopping it off. Cutting off one's own
limb requires a Will save (DC 30). Success
causes the victim to continue to bleed for 1d6
rounds thereafter and increases the victim's
Madness Rating by 10. Severed limbs are still
active and will do everything in their power to
thwart the original owner.
Special Qualities: A Kandarian has all the
special qualities of the base creature and those
listed below, and gains the undead type.

Daylight Powerlessness (Ex): Kandarians

merely a daylight spell) and flee from it.

veins bulge, and the pupils disappear. A

Legless deadites are all claws, with not much
else. "Not much else" means flesh, useful legs,
and brains. Legless deadites ain't bright, but
they're cunning the way only a demon spawn
from hell can be. Their jaws are perpetually
stretched wide in a look of shock or horror (or
maybe, perpetual amusement).
Combat
If legless deadites have a weakness, it's that

they are stuck in the Prime plane. They enjoy
the thrill of tearing into opponents and thus are
vulnerable to being torn up, shot up, and blown
away in melee.
Legless deadites aren't very bright, but they
do understand the advantages of fighting in
three dimensions when their opponents are
landbound. A legless deadite that is wounded
will dive into the ground and then pop up when
its opponent is least expecting it. Sneaky
bastards.
Planewalk (Su): Legless deadites like to slip
between the folds of space to attack enemies as
though from thin air. They can dive into the
Ethereal Plane with a move action but take 2
rounds to cross back. They usually use this
tactic to dive into the ground and track their
opponents Ethereally until they spot a prime
moment to surprise attack.

Incorporeal: Can be harmed only by other

pass through armor. Always moves silently.

You can make a lot of entertaining

scary thing.
Well, not quite, but the deadites get an "A"

pathetic. It's hard not to feel guilty when you

If a possessed Kandarian demon gets a good
bite or claw off, chances are you might become
possessed. If you're lucky, that doesn't happen.
If you're unlucky, you turn into a deadite zombie.
If you're really unlucky, you only become
partially possessed and the location that was
damaged takes on a mind of its own. As in, it
does its best to kill you even while still attached.
So your hand has become possessed. Or

maybe it's your whole arm. Or maybe it's your
leg. And we hope to God it's notwell, down
there. But in any case, it's obvious the only
logical thing to do is chop it off. Right?
That's how it starts.
Combat
Possessed limbs move incredibly fast. They
move with the speed and cunning of undead
rodents and are capable of everything from
turning on tape recorders to stabbing people in
the backs with sharp objects. Hands lend
themselves most to this sort of behavior. A
hopping foot just isn't quite as threatening or
versatile.

Kandarians are like really horny monkeys
they'll stick themselves into anything in reach. It
should come as no surprise, then, that they hop
into objects too.
Combat
Kandarians don't seem to have a particular
preference to what they possess. They'll
possess anything, and then use it to laugh,
gibber, and attack. The more of a face the item
has, the better. A possessed object can have
one or more of the following special abilities,
depending on its form.
Blind (Ex): A sheet-like possessed object
such as a carpet or tapestry can grapple an
opponent up to three sizes larger. The object
makes a normal grapple check. If it gets a hold,
it wraps itself around the opponents head,
blinding that creature until removed. The blinded
creature cannot make Spot, Search, or Track
checks and suffers a -6 circumstance penalty to
other checks related to perception, such as
Listen.

Constrict (Ex): A flexible possessed object

such as a rope, vine, or rug deals automatic
slam damage with a successful grapple check
against creatures up to one size larger than
itself. An object of at least Large size can make
constrict attacks against multiple creatures at
once, if they all are at least two sizes smaller
than the object and fit under it.
Trample (Ex): A possessed object of at least
Large size and with a hardness of at least 10
can trample creatures two or more sizes smaller
for the objects slam damage. Opponents who
do not make attacks of opportunity against the
object can attempt Reflex saves (DC 10 + 1/2
objects HD) to halve the damage.
Hardness (Ex): A possessed object has the
same hardness it had before it was possessed.
Improved Speed (Ex): The base speeds
given in the statistics block assume that
possessed objects lurch, rock, or slither along.
Objects with two legs (statues, ladders) or a
similar shape that allows faster movement have
a speed bonus of 10 feet. Objects with multiple
legs (tables, chairs) have a speed bonus of 20
feet. Wheeled objects gain a speed bonus of 40
feet. Objects might have additional modes of
movement. A wooden object can float and has a
swim speed equal to half its land speed. A rope
or similar sinuous object has a climb speed
equal to half its land speed. A sheet-like object
can fly (clumsy maneuverability) at half its
normal speed. Yes, even books can fly by

flapping their pages. Nobody said Kandarians
were logical.
Not subject to critical hits, subdual damage, abil-
ity damage, energy drain, or death from massive

damage.

objects are utterly powerless in natural sunlight

Peasants and nobles alike are frantic: The Tsar
has fallen deathly ill with few viable choices for an
heir. If the Tsar dies, his scheming twin sons will

"The Tsar is dead!" The cry echoes across
Torassia: the cruel tyrant fell in a battle with undead
troops, abandoned by the two princes in his time of
need. The empty throne creates anarchy and
chaos, as the princes and the Tsar's advisor battle
for the right to rule. As if that wasn't bad enough,
the worst winter that Torassia has ever
experienced leaves frozen corpses in villages
everywhere. It's a race against time as Sergei, the
Tsar's commander in chief, gallops southwards to
reach the capital before the forces of hell get their
first. Will you brave the coming storm? Tsar Rising
is a d20 fantasy adventure for eight or ninth level
characters.

underbelly of Hamdon, a fantasy version of
renaissance London. When the archbishop turns
up dead at the production of the latest play, the
acting troupe known as The King's Men is accused
of murder. It's up to the PCs to track down the killer
and prove the actors' innocence. But not everything
is as it seems in the world of acts and actors. All
the King's Men is a d20 System adventure suitable
