Forged by the left hand of Nechrubel, bound in cured skin and soot-black wood, the ancient god-vessels known as IKHONs are detested by the Two-Headed Basilisks. Wielding their Powers, unfettering the Profane Profound shackled within is a serious heretical crime and whoever may carry these blackened shrines will be forever hunted by the inquisition. But perhaps it is worth it.

Free League Publishing and Stockholm Kartell today officially announced MÖRK BORG: IKHON. This new module for the hit indie old-school RPG MÖRK BORG will be released on February 28.

IKHON is a mystery box for MÖRK BORG. A gaol keeping four almost-forgotten folk gods at bay; the Bilkherd, the Becklure, the Old Dead and the dreaded Silkfiend. Those who dare commune with them are promised great rewards. But life and death go hand in hand and too small a sacrifice could be perceived as an insult. This gift could very well be a curse. Contents:
Boxed set with rules on how to unfetter the Profane Profound.
Four tracts, one for each god-creature, detailing their gifts and punishments.
Written by Pelle Nilsson but torn apart and rebuilt in a stranger, darker form by Fiona Maeve Geist and Jarrett Crader of the MoonRat Conspiracy.
Over 40 full-page illustrations by the masterful Paraguayan artist Samuel Araya, whose oil paintings will bring the Profane Profound to blasphemous life.

A pre-order giving early access to a complete PDF is now live in the Free League webshop.

MÖRK BORG is designed by Pelle Nilsson (Ockult Örtmästare Games) and Johan Nohr (Stockholm Kartell), published by Free League Publishing.

About MÖRK BORG
A doom metal album of a game. A spiked flail to the face.
Light on rules, heavy everything else.

MÖRK BORG is a blackened artpunk RPG about miserable bastards and heretics enduring a bleak, dying world. It came out of nowhere and ravaged the role-playing game scene in 2020 when it won four gold ENnies (Product of the Year is one of them) and has become a cult hit with a dedicated following ever since.
