Aleph: The Strange and Monstrous
A downloadable game
Made for the 2022 OSR June Game Jam
Far beyond the known kingdoms and the raging seas, there is a fabled land. It is named in every tongue and spoken in every history. It is said wizardry is still practiced there, and dragons terrorize the land. It is said the truth of humanity hides there. It is known as Aleph- the first kingdom of humanity.
Aleph is an original dark fantasy setting created to be broadly compatible with a wide range of OSR style game systems. Aleph is a place cast in the shadow of oppressive religion, strange tradition, and horrible, vicious monstrosities. Players will have to be clever, diligent, and resourceful to overcome the limitless possible encounters they may have as they explore this forsaken land.
This book makes up the core bestiary of the kingdom and provides plenty of information and story hooks for running adventures of your own inside the setting.
Includes:
-Over 60 monsters! Including statistical information, ecology, and lore!
-A hand-drawn map of the setting! The world of Aleph is waiting for your players!
-Over a dozen new spells! Powerful and strange magic that is sure to leave an impression!

Did you intentionally rip off the Southern Magnamund map for this or is it an incredible coincidence?
I have no idea what that is.
I took a look trying to find what they are on about, there is a map for the book lone wolf which has some similarities with your map but is in no way identicle or interchangable
I'm a big fan of Lone Wolf but I'm not sure what this guy is smoking. I'm guessing he thinks India looks like Magamund, too; like that's a pretty standard Earth-type land shape there.
