System of the Month December: Adventures in Ankh-Morpork

In a distant and second-hand set of dimensions, in an astral plane that was never meant to fly, the curling star-mists
waver and part… See…

Great A’Tuin the Turtle comes, swimming slowly through the interstellar gulf, hydrogen frost on his ponderous limbs, his huge and ancient shell pocked with meteor craters. Through sea-sized eyes that are crusted with rheum and asteroid dust He stares fixedly at the Destination.

In a brain bigger than a city, with geological slowness, He thinks only of the Weight.

Most of the weight is of course accounted for by the four giant elephants upon whose broad and star-tanned shoulders the disc of the World rests, garlanded by the long waterfall at its vast circumference and domed by the baby-blue vault of Heaven.

The Colour of Magic

Welcome to Terry Pratchett’s Discworld RPG: Adventures in Ank-Morpork. The Modiphius system will be available on Kickstarter soon, but the quickstarter is already available!

We are playing the mystery intro adventure “Up in Smoke”. You embody up to 5 members of the Ankh-Morpork City Guard (pre-made characters) and have been sent out to investigate the raid on the Sunshine Home for Sick Dragons. For those in the know: We are playing around the time of Thud!.

The rules are very simple and focus heavily on role-playing. There is little fighting (and only with normal skill tests – there is no weapon damage or similar) and the focus is entirely on immersing yourself in the bizarre world of Terry Pratchett – but you don’t have to know it to have fun!

TLDR: 3-5 players, in German, pre-made characters, two different groups.

Registration soon via SwissRPG MeetUp.

The MegaBern Project

Adventurers of Bern, the time has come!

A powerful Dragon has slumbered beneath our city for ages, but now it’s waking up, threatening to bring destruction not just to Bern, but to the entire world!

To stop this catastrophe, join us on Sunday, November the 17th and join one of our tables, located all around the city in a coordinated adventure to prevent the Dragon’s awakening! This event will feature interconnected games using different TTRPG systems such as Dungeons & Dragons, Dungeon Crawl Classics, Electric Bastionlands, Call of Cthulhu, and more!

These games will run simultaneously at various TTRPG hubs across the city: Chaos Dice Club, DracheNäscht, Erupt, Katakomben & Lindwürmer and Zwergenschmiede.

Go here, check it out, register and be a part of the biggest RPG event in Bern of the year ever! rpgbern.ch/en/megabern-en

A spooky surprise

On this second Wednesday of the month, the Pathfinder Society meets again in the vaults of the association: 08. October 2024 at 17:30 until approx. 23:00 we agents will go on another adventure. It will be the adventure 3-02: The Crocodile’s Smile and will be played in Swiss German (or in standard German if this works better for individual players).


With pressure mounting against the legal claim on one of their lodges, the Society sends a group of heroes to assist in the defense.

Arriving in the Andoran city of Almas, the PCs quickly find themselves doing far more than paperwork when a ghostly specter seemingly accuses the Pathfinder Society of some heinous act. Forced to investigate the ghost’s appearance, it’s up to the PCs to figure out the truth behind the message and what is really going with the so-called “East Hill Haunting”.


The adventure is suitable for characters of levels 1-4. It is also open to new players who do not yet have any role-playing experience and/or are not yet familiar with the Pathfinder system in its 2nd edition.

Sign Up

You can sign up via Meetup.
Keep in mind that this adventure will be played in German.

Horror-RPG

If you want to get in the right mood for our little Halloween-Extravaganza, you can do so on Friday, 25.10.24 with a horror RPG at the CDC:

  • Game Master: Al
  • System: Liminal Horror: Investigators (e3)
  • Scenario: The Chair
  • Spieler: max 6
  • Language: English
  • Time: FR, 18:00-23:00
  • Registration: Direct Message via discord to your GM Al (Rogue-AL on discord)

Tales from the Void: The Chair
“Rumor has it that there is a decrepit house deep in the woods to which no roads lead. They say that there is an antique but possessed chair, luring curious souls into the house and seducing them to sit upon it. However, once you step through the doors, you will be trapped forever. You are investigators who seek to find out the truth behind the rumor. Can you uncover the secrets hidden within and escape the house? Or will you become part of its furniture and be trapped there for eternity?”

Liminal Horror: Investigators (3e) is a modern horror TTRPG that uses a rules-light system and is based on the same one found in Into the Odd,Cairn, or Maze Rats, but modified for a horror setting. In this one-shot, players will take on the role of curious investigators who come upon the rumored house in the woods. 

The Chair is a scenario from the Tales from the Void anthology, written and designed by Zach Hazard Vaupen. Some slight changes to the scenario can be expected which draw their inspiration from movies such as Hausu (1977), Cube (1997), Thirteen Ghosts (2001), Saw II (2005), Pan’s Labyrinth (2006), and Crimson Peak (2015).

About the “Liminal” in Liminal Horror. To avoid some confusion, the title does not refer to the concept of liminal spaces or the famed “Backrooms” per se. It is connected to the idea of liminal (transitional) states such as characters/investigators going through changes as they face horrors.

Not suitable for minors.
The One-Shot will be held in English and is intended for beginner and experienced RPG players.

From playing to GMing

Would you like to run D&D or other TTRPG games yourself, but are unsure how to get started?

With a few tips and tricks, we want to support you on your way to finding your own style, strengthen your confidence that what you are doing is the right thing and encourage you to find your own way.
After all, it is your individual style that will ultimately make your sessions a special event.

We invite interested people to a 3-hour workshop to try this out.

The workshop is free of charge and suitable for people of all ages. We will collect money for the room rental.

Registration by e-mail to info@ahbaron.com

We look forward to seeing you!
Andrea & Jojo
