Remember that fiction anthology, Buried Tales of Pinebox, TX, we mentioned a few months ago? It’ll be hitting game stores next month! Ask your friendly local game store to pre-order TWL6001. It’s 174 pages of Pinebox chills.

In support of the book, we’ve created a dedicated page that will be seeded with lots of cool stuff. We’ve got bios on all 12 authors, titles and summaries of each story, plus bonus audio content! Visit http://buriedtales.12tomidnight.com and let us know what you think!

Oh, I almost forgot! Starting today and for the next few weeks, some of news articles at The Raven’s Report will be related to stories you’ll see in Buried Tales.

In anticipation of ETU’s completion, the we’ve has put together a little website to give you a taste of what it’s like living in Pinebox day in and day out. To that end, we offer The Raven’s Report.

The Report contains various news articles written by the university’s newspaper staff and is slated to release new stories every week. While written specifically with ETU, Savage Worlds and Pinebox in mind, they are presented in a system neutral fashion so their elements can be added to any existing modern role playing campaign, or just read for fun. As time progresses, we anticipate adding follow-up stories, character stats, adventure seeds and GM tips on how to incorporate Report articles into your game. All of this for free, from all of us at 12 to Midnight.

We want Pinebox and ETU to grow and live, and part of that will rely on help from you! There are a handful of ways you can help expand ETU and Pinebox:

First, every page has a contact link that will allow you guys to send us ideas for news that you’d like to see investigated by our reporters. Feeling creative? Write us a story from the point of view of an ETU student witnessing it first-hand!

Every posted article can be commented on if you’ve uncovered a piece of information that our reporters missed. Did you take one of the stories and incorporate it into your game? Write to us and tell us how it went! We’d love to hear about it and might even base a follow up on it including your group’s adventures into ETU canon! Help shape Pinebox!

GO RAVENS!
