“Come in!” exclaimed the Ghost. “Come in! and know me better . . . !"
Hi there! I'm Park Cooper, and Wicker Man Studios is the creative studio of my wife Barbara Lien-Cooper and myself-- although rpg games stuff is pretty much always going to be me. (For the record, though, I'm he/him, she's she/her.) We write prose novels and graphic novels, and now I've started tinkering around with making ttrpg content.
You can learn a lot more about us at our main website (see that middle link up above, there?)
Here's the stuff I've "finished" (RPG-wise):
--Memos And Monsters: A game about a fantasy apocalypse that was averted with a Wish spell... that turned the whole world into an office comedy.
--Multiclass, The Game! A game system for playing characters who are inherently multi-class or all the classes at once.
--The Wicker Man's FLAME: a simple set of rules for a fantasy game (based on an original concept by Josh McCrowell (HIS MAJESTY THE WORM)).
Here's what I'm still working on (RPG-wise):
--I Just Work Here: A Game of Hirelings: A fantasy game in which you're the hirelings-- the ones who actually make sure the world gets saved, no matter how many adventurers you lose along the way...
--The Twentieth Century: quickstart rules for a game set in the early years of the 20th century (but the fictional version of the 20th century, so, lots of ghosts and hoboes and orphan-kid-newsies and stuff)
--You Have Always Been Here Before: a fantasy game about being the reincarnation of an amazing person from the past
--Shibboleth: a fantasy game about a city-state that has outlawed all the old gods and goddesses (so anything to do with them has to be done in secret) because they were getting in the way of keeping the rich and powerful... well, rich and powerful
--Castle Selkrave: a fantasy game that's kind of a love letter to Mervyn Peake's novels TITUS GROAN and GORMENGHAST
--Blades In The Underworld: A hack of the fantasy game Blades in the Dark that's set in the caverns below the surface of a fantasy world
--Blades In The Sunlight: A hack of the fantasy game Blades in the Dark that's set in a post-human world of anthropomorphic animals trying to protect their (very Scottish-highlands-like) home (and maybe figure out what happened to the humans who used to live here)
--Giant Convention Game: A game about being a giant who's planning on going to the Althing: the convention of giants.
If any of these makes you think "wow, that sounds awesome, I wanna hear more about that!" then please let me know!
