Dragonlaird Gaming presents Savage Characters Volume 1
RPGs and Savage Worlds are all about the characters. Whether you’re a Gamemaster or a Player, there are times you need some inspiration. Savage Characters Volume 1 brings you twenty fully developed, rich characters to inspire your adventures and campaigns.
There are five characters in each of four Dragonlaird Gaming settings which can easily be used in similar genres: Fantasy, Haunted West, Modern Horror, and Space Opera.Each character is presented with a full body color portrait, history and description, stats including a complete 100 point build ladder, and five adventure hooks, one for each rank. The characters have ties together you can leverage whether they are allies or enemies. In addition to the characters there is a teaser for each setting walking through some of the key aspects of the setting and the flavor of it. This includes a large piece of art and several detailed locations ripe for adventures and scenes.
The product is available for reviews and the author is available for interviews.

Heather Miller has gotten pretty far with the layout of Savage Characters Volume One. Hoping to publish it to DriveThruRPG in August.

Greetings Dragonlaird Gaming Fans!
Just a quick update on the Savage Characters Volume 1 project. We’ve had to switch layout designers but are pleased to welcome Heather Miller to our team. We’re already looking at drafts of covers and layouts. My new target is to have Savage Characters Volume 1 published to DriveThruRPG.com before GenCon in August.
Once this project is up on that site, I can turn my attentions to supporting materials for the settings established in that product. My primary focus will be Dark Ages and Dragon Gods with the potential to run a series of games in the setting at Origins 2015.
Watch here for sneak peeks of the covers and inside layouts before we unleash these Savage Characters on the world! 🙂

I’ve posted teasers for each of the four settings under development here at Dragonlaird Gaming. Give them a look and let me know what you think. We’ve got:
Dark Ages and Dragon Gods: A faltering Roman Empire is saved by a dragon who sets itself up as their new god. Orcs press westward, a boy king takes the Gaulish throne, and the Fey races are challenged to emerge from their homes in the Black Forest and Alps.
Haunted West: Magic and Supernatural Science challenge explorers and treasure-hunters in the Early American West.
Soul Crimes: What happens when gangsters running a thoroughly corrupt New York City start facing true Evil from Beyond?
Theta Ships and Iron Men: The Brits discovered our way to the stars and the Royal Stellar Navy now deal handle diplomacy and trade with beautiful and ugly alien races, protecting human colonies, and fighting across the stars.
