For my entry to the Horrors of the Americas eventual collection I wanted to create an expanded list of Rituals (our magic) for Liminal Horror. Using Yochai Gal's More Spells List (itself a list adapting classic spells from the early days of D&D to the Cairn system) I was able to adapt d666 (216) new spells for Liminal Horror.
Since I wanted this to be a secret Horrors of the Americas entry, I had to create a framing/location that could house this many Rituals. And so we came up with The Stacks. This project also necessitated codifying the use of grimoire mechanic as one way to house and access Rituals.
THE STACKS
A massive collection of books, covering every topic imaginable. All entrances feed into the center area, where the librarian sits below a massive card catalog. Some boast that any text written, both past, present, and future, can be found in the stacks.
CURRENT LOCATION
The current entrance to The Lost Library is in the stomach of Dinny the Brontosaurus (a 150ft long steel-and- concrete sculpture). These can be found in the Cabazon Dinosaur park in Cabazon, CA. The entrance to The Lost Library shifts regularly and sporadically. It is rare that any living being steps foot in there twice. Rumor has it that multiple entrances can be active at once.
Take a dive below to download The Lost Library and bring a wide array of Rituals to your game.
Also note that Rituals rules can be found on the Liminal Horror SRD: https://liminalhorrorrpg.com/srd-rituals/
