WaRP Open Call

To encourage development of WaRP System content, Atlas Games is sponsoring an Open Call of short WaRP-based adventures. Submissions are due on July 30th, and should be fully developed adventures of 3,000 to 15,000 words in length (not proposals). The best submitted adventures will be selected for inclusion in an adventure anthology published by Atlas Games. Those that are chosen will be given a contract for 3 cents/word and a complimentary copy of the book.

We're looking for adventures that push the boundaries of what can be done with the WaRP System. They may be based in the Over the Edge setting, but could as easily be set in an entirely different place, time, or genre. They should be edgy, and surprising or weird in some way, going beyond the expected ... we're not looking for ho-hum dungeon crawls. Extra consideration might or might not be given to adventures that include any (but not all) of the following example themes: contagious disease or contagion in general, language (especially in an unexpected or inhuman context), mystical chakras, forbidden weapons, biological metamorphosis, or passions.

Submissions should include the following: An envelope with "RELEASE FORM ENCLOSED" written on the outside; a signed copy our Release Form; and a print-out of your adventure with the following at the top -- your name, address, phone number, email address, title of the adventure, word count, and a 1-sentence plot summary.
