Dissident Whispers

So this is an "adventure anthology" (my words not theirs) and was put out to raise money for Black Lives Matter (all proceeds went towards the "bail fund"). Other than the intro there's nothing political about the book.

Each adventure was 2 pages. Some of the authors took up a bunch of space with art and others filled the pages with 6-point font text. Many of the adventures seemed to lack important background information, or descriptions of these monsters they made up (I think). There were some really cool Mork-Borgish layouts and some more plain. The maps were either cartoony or really ugly digital maps and some didn't have maps at all which is okay, considering they weren't that complex.

Some great feats of imagination going on here and show more some not so great, or even terrible (to me at least).

There were a bunch of system agnostic adventures, a 11 from Mothership, 6 from Mork Borg, and a mix from Electric Bastionland, UVG, 5e D&D, DCC, Black Hack, Troika!, Mausritter, Trophy Gold and Basic/Expert D&D.

Some of my favorites were:

Graktil the Citadel that Crawls (Goblins make a stronghold out of an enormous undead scorpion)

Maze of the Manic Molemen
Mother Skull Carbs Vault
Thorn's Barrow
Ghost Ship
Indigo Tendrils of the Zomp-Machine
Blackburn Bridge
Toru's Maw (very unsubtly based on Pac Man)
Raid on Fort Frogfellow
The Dream of Nia Wen
The Fae Queens Grief
Canal of Horrors
