Complete PARIAH sandbox (zini selection)
A downloadable zini/module collection
NEW FILES ADDED 13th January 2025!
PARIAH is a proto-Neolithic psychedelic animist RPG based upon the original version of the world's most popular tabletop roleplaying game.
(SIDEBAR:I mean Dungeons & Dragons, but we always do this little linguistic dance around it which I don't think is entirely necessary)
This is the Complete PARIAH Sandbox —or it WILL be, eventually (hopefully), with help from you!
The "game" is made up of a series of individual modules in 4-side "zini" format, which GMs and their players can pick-and-choose from to build the system and setting of their own sandbox campaign. At the moment this consists of the following modules:
- AHPZ00 Index of the Pariah Sandbox
- AHPZ06 MUTAGENIC HIVE SWARM
- AHPZ09 Valley of Mui Eiru
- AHPZ11 The ikau Mangrove
- AHPZ15 Pariah Generation (updated)
- AHPZ16 Mutations
- AHPZ17 X is for...
- AHPZ19 Spell Spirits
- AHPZ22 Fighting, weapon proficiencies (updated)
- AHPZ27 Curse templates
- AHPZ30 Genius Loci + Wilderness Procedure (updated)
- AHPZ33 3d100 Items
- AHPZ34 Wilderness: GRASSLANDS (updated)
- AHPZ35 Entheogens
- AHPZ36 Wilderness —TROPICAL FORESTS
..for the combined price of £1 $3.00! This is an early access opportunity: partially inspired by the funding model used by Luke Gearing for Wolves Upon the Coast Grand Campaign, the price increases as new content is added. Here's the initial list:

...but this list is by no means conclusive. The plan is to add at least two new modules each month... though the price will rise with each new addition... meaning there's LITERALLY NEVER BEEN A BETTER TIME TO INVEST IN THE COMPETE PARIAH SANBOX (ZINI SELECTION) THAN RIGHT NOW!
PLEASE BE AWARE
- Zinis concerned exclusively with rules/mechanics/procedures WILL be freely available as part of the upcoming PARIAH creative commons SRD.
- Some of these zinis are already available as free/PWYW either on itch.io or elsewhere
As stated, the initial goal is to upload AT LEAST TWO NEW ZINIS each month, with at least ONE being an adventure site or spirit realm rather than rules/procedures/mechanics etc.
A limited number of free community copies will be made available each month.
Thanks for your ongoing support!

I really like some of the changes I see! Removing attributes is normally a step too far for me, but the trait system is nice and elegant.
Thank s, I sat on that for a while, glad I finally went with it. Mostly I want to provide more world generating procedures so it's easy to get a campaign up and running, I think this was sorely missed from the original volume.
After reading through everything here, I started reading through the older one again, and remembered how much I love the Healing/Spellcasting balance of Pariah. I remember it being really inspirational to the game I was running at the time. Excited to see more!
