I’ve been engaged to handle graphic design and page lay-out for a pen-and-paper pony role-playing game book titled Roan. The creator has started a Kickstarter campaign to cover the costs of payment to myself and other contributors, most especially illustrators, and of printing and distribution.

The setting is strongly influenced by pulp adventure—both the original interwar fiction featuring the likes of Doc Savage and the Phantom, Terry and the Pirates and Billy Barnes, and latter-day homages such as Indiana Jones, the Rocketeer, and Sky Captain. The game mechanics are a licensed customized version of the Ubiquity rules set by Jeff Combos.

The project was funded to the tune of more than $20,000! Now the real work begins.
