Examples of the Dark Arts
A collection of 25 items, spells, weapons, and talismans for OSR fantasy games, inspired by European folklore and the concept of sympathy. Many entries draw on the belief that parts of the human body contain magical power and can be used to harness the spark of creation. Unless otherwise noted, the items can be created by non-magic-users using the required components and inherited ritual knowledge, subject to the Game Master's ruling.
