Cold, Hard World: The Real World Sourcebook

Keeping It Real

In Dead Inside (DI), the Real World is the same as the world we all live in. . . a cold, hard world where spiritual power is weak. Still, the supernatural beings of the Cosmos -- Dead Inside, Sensitives, Magi, Ghosts, Zombis, and Free Spirits -- bring their subtle horrors, mysteries, and wonders with them into the everyday: hiding behind corners, lurking in shadows, dancing right under the noses of soul-blind Average People.

Within Cold, Hard World, you will find:

  • All of the information on the Real World from DI collected into one place, with expanded detail on how spiritual talents operate there. Also, further information on its strange inhabitants: Average People.
  • In-depth descriptions of many Places and Times of Power, as well as new Notable NPCs, Organizations, and Enchanted Objects.
  • Several Real World adventure ideas, and a random adventure generator tool for DI GMs.
  • New optional "reloads" of the core DI setting (and rules) for very different campaigns focusing on the Real World.

Cold, Hard World is available as a 74 page, 2.9M PDF from RPGNow for $8. Download it now, and look out your window to see -- maybe for the first time -- the supernatural hopes and fears of the Real World.

Very much worth it if, like me, you'd rather run "Dead Inside" more in or very near the mortal world than in the Spirit World. Add to that a toolbox of GM resources and story ideas and the book suddenly becomes not only indispensable for &qu [...]

Scanned image
These products were created by scanning an original printed edition. Most older books are in scanned image format because original digital layout files never existed or were no longer available from the publisher.

For PDF download editions, each page has been run through Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software to attempt to decipher the printed text. The result of this OCR process is placed invisibly behind the picture of each scanned page, to allow for text searching. However, any text in a given book set on a graphical background or in handwritten fonts would most likely not be picked up by the OCR software, and is therefore not searchable. Also, a few larger books may be resampled to fit into the system, and may not have this searchable text background.

For printed books, we have performed high-resolution scans of an original hardcopy of the book. We essentially digitally re-master the book. Unfortunately, the resulting quality of these books is not as high. It's the problem of making a copy of a copy. The text is fine for reading, but illustration work starts to run dark, pixellating and/or losing shades of grey. Moiré patterns may develop in photos. We mark clearly which print titles come from scanned image books so that you can make an informed purchase decision about the quality of what you will receive.

Original electronic format
These ebooks were created from the original electronic layout files, and therefore are fully text searchable. Also, their file size tends to be smaller than scanned image books. Most newer books are in the original electronic format. Both download and print editions of such books should be high quality.
