Selected Option:

ENNIE AWARD NOMINEE FOR BEST WRITING, BEST SETTING AND PRODUCT OF THE YEAR!

The Heroes and Villains of a Strange Century!

Doctor Archibald Monroe, the erudite chemist and physician-chimpanzee.

"Stony" Joe Smithson, the honest London boxer, transformed into living rock.

Maeve O'Connel, Queen of the Mudlarks, the eternal child touched by Faerie.

The Lady Mirabel, who by darkness defends Whitechapel as the terrifying Night Hag.

When the victims and enthusiasts of magic and bizarre science meet in an infamous club for "the Strange," thrilling action is sure to follow!

The Kerberos Club is a Wild Talents sourcebook for superheroic roleplaying in Victorian London. It includes a treatment of Victorian society in its every particular, especially the incredible and sometimes awful changes that "the Strangeness" comes to wreak upon Queen and Country alike.

The Kerberos Club gives Wild Talents players every tool they need to create new heroes and villains in a world that is at the same time familiar and alien—a world made more of both by the Strangeness that grips it and the dangers that threaten it.

There is, after all, every good reason for the club's motto: "MALUM NECESSARIUM."

Written by multiple Ennie Award nominee Benjamin Baugh, with art by Lanny Liu and Todd Shearer and page design by Fred Hicks and Shane Ivey.

Tremendously entertaining mixture of Victorian steampunk and superheroes. One can set the level of weirdness (or "Strangeness", to use the parlance of the book) at whatever level works best for you and your players. This is cleverly accomplis [...]

Steampunk superheroes seem to be all the rage lately and with great books like The Kerberos Club, I can see why. My only quibble, and I guess it's really more a request (vain hope) for a web supplement giving more details or examples of the challenge [...]

For those who have never heard of it, The Kerberos Club is a source-book written by Benjamin Baugh which uses the rules from Wild Talents 2nd Ed and takes a spin of a glorious Arc Dream conceit: What if individuals with super-powers cropped up in diffe [...]

One of the richest and most detailed campaign settings I've ever seen. Witty writing and top-notch humor merge with a grim, gritty, chaotic world. I recommend it to any GM wanting to throw his players into an interesting new setting. [...]

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.

Most newer books are in the original electronic format. Both download and print editions of such books should be high quality.
