Graves & Groves is the first volume of (what we hope) will become a larger series of Dungeon Crawl Classics compatible zines, BIG SWORD. This volume specifically focuses on the undead and nature. It will feature:

• A detailed and comprehensive Vampire Generator fit for a lich!
• A full write-up on The Curse of Dhampirism – an article on what happens to a player character stuck between the worlds of life and death!
• A New Patron: The Prime Vampire, the progenitor of all other vampires; a creature of unimaginable pain and power, older than Time Itself!
• The Treefolk Class – An ancient race that wields both might and magic, fueled by their attunement to nature.
• Survival Mechanics! Now you can finally force your party to suffer the full weight of starvation and exhaustion with an elegant addition to any wilderness campaign!
• An old favorite returns, the Ranger Class, as remixed by the BIG SWORD authors!
• And finally, a small Hexcrawl Adventure that ties all of it together!

Plus:

• Rules for handling Downtime between adventures!
• Party Composition: An article detailing our thoughts on the strange intricacies of DCC Party Composition.
