Ubercon Success
We had a great time at Ubercon X in Edison, NJ, April 25-27. All of Schweig’s games were successful, including the D6 Star Wars RPG charity game with Star Wars author Timothy Zahn. Remember, you can always invite Schweig to attend a con; check out Schweig’s conventions page for more details.

Interview with Schweig


 
 
Welcome to Peter Schweighofer's latest publishing endeavor. Griffon Publishing Studio aims to disseminate Schweig's self-published game materials (roleplaying games as well as card and board games) through the PDF medium. Browse the Roleplaying Games and Board/Card Games sections; since the site is relatively new, you won't find too much offered, but you'll also find some notes on products Schweig's working to bring to publication. Schweig's roleplaying game material will use the innovative Any-System Key, allowing you to adapt his sourcebooks and scenarios to your favorite game engine.

The Any-System Key  describes character skills and task difficulties in terms that easily translate into different game systems. These terms do not link into any one game engine, but serve as general guidelines to give readers an overall sense of how they fit within their own game’s stat and difficulty scale. Any-System Key publications provide settings, characters, adventures, and other source material you can easily adapt to your favorite roleplaying game.

Download the free Any-System Key  PDF (146k) now.

Test this adaptable system with a free medieval scenario, The Village War (802k PDF).

You will need Adobe Acrobat Reader to open these files.

Free downloads offer a glimpse of some of Schweig's past work and a sampling of his varied interests. Many appeared on Schweig's original site, Griffon's Aerie.

   "This is called a Griffin because it is a winged quadruped. This kind of wild animal is born in Hyperborean parts, or in mountains. All its bodily members are like a lion's, but its wings and mask are like an eagle's. It is vehemently hostile to horses. But it will also tear to pieces any human beings which it happens to come across." 

-- The Book of Beasts, translated by T.H. White
