Welcome to issue 16 of Mad Scribe Magazine! We've been rolling dice and making trouble since January 2023, and this issue wraps up our fourth year. We're arriving a little late, but I've got a pretty good excuse: two books have been keeping me buried in publishing work.
Sons of Heaven launched September 25 and hit Copper best-seller status on DriveThruRPG within 24 hours, then Silver within three days. As I write this, we're just a few sales shy of Electrum! It's sporting a five-star rating and has topped the OSR category. Readers have praised its sandbox tables and generators, along with the art and graphic design. For a small publisher, that kind of response is a hell of a boost. Thanks to everyone who's picked up a copy.
Meanwhile, Rob Kuntz's Lord of the Green Dragons: The Return of Robilar is getting closer to publication. Rob's fans have been enthusiastic about the cover and interior previews, and I can't wait to put the finished book in your hands. These are firsthand adventures from someone who was there before D&D became a household name.
Of course, the artwork gets some folks fired up because I often use ChatGPT and Midjourney. I've published nearly 50 titles and paid human artists for most of them, so I know what commissioning art involves. It's expensive, and turnaround can stretch into weeks or months. A quarterly magazine can't always wait. I understand the concern about artists' livelihoods, but small publishers have bills and deadlines, too. AI gives me the means to produce ambitious books on an indie budget. You're welcome to dislike the tool. I'm proud of what I've made with it.
Now, what's waiting inside this issue? We answer, "Who is Castle Rat?" with a look at the fantasy-fueled metal band. Kyle Woods shares his top board game picks for Q4, and I bring you five underused undead creatures, complete with adventure hooks for your fantasy OSR game. Elven Tower and Charles Hernandez add monsters and setting lore to keep your players on their toes.
Kennon James delivers the exciting conclusion of his comic The Road Remembered. Victoria Recchione returns with more gorgeous cosplay photos, Mike Fairchild shows you how to get professional results painting miniatures, and Blaine Pardoe brings us a Land & Sea short story.
There's plenty here to read, play, and bring to your table. Grab your copy, tell a gaming buddy about Mad Scribe, and check out Sons of Heaven while you're at it. Keep an eye out for Robilar, too. Your support keeps this little publishing operation moving, and I've got plenty more in store.

Information regarding the right of withdrawal
Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.
To exercise the right of withdrawal, electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". We will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.
To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back, or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.
You shall send back the goods or hand them over to California Books, Fort Wayne, Indiana, U.S.A., without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your withdrawal from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.
Exceptions to the right of withdrawal
The right of withdrawal does not apply to:
- The delivery of newspapers, journals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts; and
- The supply of digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium (e.g. on a CD or DVD) if you accepted when you placed your order that we could start to deliver it, and that you could not withdraw once delivery had started.
