This is a horrible book.

You won’t find any joy in it.

There are no stats for the monsters inside.
This is not a book about how they kill, 
or how to kill them.

This is a book about how they loved.

And love is the real monster.

Menagerie of Unbearable Things is a system neutral TTRPG compendium of the unloved. An art and story-heavy bestiary of monsters and what love did to them. All entries include adventure hooks with ideas to introduce them to your games. 

Every page is fully illustrated. There will be a total of 7 stories, told with both the text and the illustrations. You have to read both.

This is a free preview that includes the first story, The Scorched King, as well as a peek of the second story, The Blooming Lord.

The Kickstarter to fund this horrible book will launch by the end of June. If you like what you see and want to help me fund it, you can follow the project's page here: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/taniaherrero/menagerie-of-unbearable-things

Oh wow, this is so incredibly good. I'm getting all of your books even though I've never played Mork Borg.

Thank you so much for the kind words and support!
Not all my books are for Mörk Borg though! But I definitely recommend checking it out haha. Such a simple and flexible system too, easy to adapt to your preferred one. 

I will check MB out for sure - I already play a lot of Pirate Borg so I'm most of the way there. :D And your books will be a great source of inspiration regardless of where I end up using them. I love how evocative your art is. The first thing of yours I saw was Crown of Salt, and  seeing a 2 page spread with a burning skeleton that says only "But nothing burns brighter than a soul." does so much more for me than pages of stat blocks.

so far it really good; I'm really liking the ideas of the first creature and the second one is really promising. Your style is really interesting with art; very unique

Thank you so much for the kind words, hope you enjoy the full thing as well! :)

This is flat-out amazing. Very excited for the Kickstarter. Plugging it elsewhere!

Thank you so much Brandon!

Espectacular, como siempre

Muchas gracias!!

This is so beautifully terrible, excited for the Kickstarter!

Thank you so much! Can't wait to share it myself :D
