Frontier Scum
Every Night & every Morn
Some to Misery are Born
Every Morn & every Night
Some are Born to sweet delight
Some are Born to sweet delight
Some are Born to Endless Night
— William Blake
FRONTIER SCUM is a rules-lite Acid Western roleplaying game. An auto-destructive, violent, and LSD-infused take on Spaghetti Westerns, about wanted outlaws making their mark on an unreal Lost Frontier. Probably getting shot before having the chance to shoot. A rough-and-tumble world of insatiable greed where scum live one slug from the grave. Inspired by such things as El Topo, Dead Man, and Bone Tomahawk.
Inside you will find all the rules you need to play, guidelines for creating characters along with their guns and stolen horses, an introduction to the Lost Frontier, a complete adventure 'Escape the Organ Rail', and tons of inspiration tables & tools for NPCs, hunting, carousing, bounties, odd jobs, loot, and strange relics.
