It's Da Curated Archive™! It Will Be The Best 3d6 Hours Of Your Gaming Career!
STEP 0: Please exhibit good manners. This thread will be automatically archived after a certain number of posts. More posts wasted on being rude means fewer posts available for sharing.
STEP 1: Go to the last thread if you haven't looked at it. There is lots of stuff, including filled requests posted directly to the board. Files posted directly to Veeky Forums are not added to Da Archive, so go grab them now. More archived threads can be found here: archive.4plebs.org/tg/search/subject/PDF share/
STEP 2: Grab your documents. Da Curated Archive, Da Archive, and Da Archive Annex comprise the collected efforts of countless contributing anons and are attatched to the first three posts.
STEP 3: Get comfortable and browse through the blasted things. Combined they are over 200 pages long! If you skim over the Personal Collections without looking you will miss 7,654 PDFs.
Remember, we are better than all of the rest of the horrible internet and good manners ALWAYS gets more results. Wise up or please go elsewhere.
Extra Special Thanks to the user Brigade who do ALL of the digging, loading, and posting.
Please ONLY POST OPEN SOURCE PDFS DIRECTLY IN THIS THREAD. Link the others from elsewhere. Excessive infractions could cause TPTB to remove the ability to post any pdfs at all. Check for copyrights before you post anything directly.
Please be patient with the Irrepressible Urchins™ who request without looking first. They are always a regular feature here. They help bump the thread, and they want to look at something that's not porn. They might even read it. You don't have to answer them, although that also bumps the thread. I understand your frustration (they used to drive me crazy), but you don't kick a puppy for not being housebroken. If they upset you, punch a teddy bear or something.
Please give as much information as you can when you make a request. The more information you give (cover, a link to product, name of designer/writer/publisher) the more chances someone might recognize it and upload it.
Please post dead links and I will remove them to keep the archive up to date. Be specific - include a page number. There are dozens of copies of some PDFs.
Please be respectful and don't belittle others' requests because you dislike the game. Imagine the horrific RPGs I've run across; 'Dragon Dildo Warriors', ‘Cheeto Fingered Gods of Angst’, and 'We're All Little Girls (Frilly Dresses Are Mandatory At the Table)' spring to mind.
If you have a fancy pdf that has unwanted clutter on it, you can leave it with one of our resident Transmutation Wizards for cleaning here: $nipli /donate $nipli /CleanedByOkultek $nipli /nergal-cleaners Please don't drop the same file in more than one location.
CityofCarse is responsible for many recent scans from private collections. If you have a rare or obscure book, he may be willing to convert your dead tree into digital bits. [email protected]
Okultek resides in the UK and may also be available for scanning. [email protected]
Why 1337 5p34k? A Paraphrased Message from TheWiz!: To guard against rapid takedowns by bots, we suggest encoding links thusly:
M3G4EnZee /#F!Nq5mVJqR!6WdkQ9T9awc07Uu8oaUzHg
The above link is easy to decode but does not show up as a working link to the lurking T-888's. Obfuscation becomes most important when filling requests. Posting a full link right out of a large Trove/Collection risks the whole thing. Just post a page reference for Da Archive or Da Annex, with a short instruction and let the document do the job of guarding the links.
Still can't find what you're looking for? Anything might be available on IRC. Try it out!
server: irc.dejatoons.net channel: #rpg-books "@find GameYou'reLookingForGoesHere" should net you plenty of DCC responses to sift through.
Just do the text. If you use mIRC, you're going to have to go into your options and turn off the option that denies a whole bunch of file formats, as well as the check box that turns them on again after a couple of minutes (genius design there). HexChat is sometimes recommended above mIRC for this reason, and IceChat 9 has been touted as another easy alternative.

I made a new trove for PDQ at
snip/PDQ
It is missing a few things so if anyone can help out that would be fantastic.
Diamonds and Coal (for Dead Inside) Imago Deck (for Dead Inside) Honorable Employee Handbook (for Ninja Burger) The Book of Bewildering Beasts (for Questers of the Middle Realms) character assistant for Questers of the Middle Realms Ten Magical Thingies, Vol. 1 (for Questers of the Middle Realms) The Blizzard's Teeth (for Jaws of the Six Serpents) Serpents' Teeth (for Jaws of the Six Serpents)
Also it appears that the Achtung Cthulhu module series Zero Point had a PDQ version. If anyone has those 3 modules for PDQ (not for Fate, not for Trail of Cthulhu, not for Call of Cthulhu...for PDQ!)
I found the first one but not the other 2 -- Heroes of the Sea and Code of Honour
WTF are you on about? French is definitely a language. Linguistics is largely about rejecting the stupid categories of "language correctness" t. fellow linguist
Would someone mind re-uploading the fall of delta green? I know someone willing to share has it, it's just that it expired in the vola.
Brandon Williams
(psst) (I wasn't COMPLETELY serious)
Isaiah Flores
I'm just cleaning it now. Sorry didn't get to it sooner. Work and such.
Will be in Nergal's vola shortly
Tyler Watson
Humbly requesting Torg Eternity.

Nicholas Morris
Humble request: Midgard Worldbook by Kobold Press (5e)
Leo Lopez
I don't know if you guys know of this site, but here we go rpg.rem.uz/Dungeons & Dragons/ I'm not sure how legal this is but remember that nobody gets banned if nobody reports
No problem, people seemed like they wanted it so i got it myself. Hopefully this helps you.
Dylan Reyes
Thank you Okultek and kind donor!
Lucas James
He hosts his stuff in a shithole called Uzbakistan or something. He's practically untouchable.
Jace Fisher
Looking for the Metropolis Sourcebook. I believe it was shared at some point.
Aiden Nelson
Uzbekistan, probably I don't care about that guy, but also I don't know if I will get shit on me for sharing it
Caleb Nguyen
Requesting AQUELARRE (English version) please
Also, is there a trove for japanese TRPGs?
Gavin James
Humbly requesting Sythicide and Wormskin
Grayson Hernandez
I understand man and thanks for your donation. It's just that when you get stuff from drivethru, you send it to the cleaners as mentioned in 2nd post, don't get it out in the open with the watermark on it.
Yup. That site is tremendously useful sometimes, though - it's a lot easier to queue stuff up to download on my phone if I urgently need, like, a dozen very specific sourcebooks to reference something. Mega's awkward for my PDF reader, and the usual download sites may as well not exist for how inconvenient they can be.
So I'm glad it's there.
Anthony Cox
Requesting the recently released FRONTIER TOWNS: FORT GRIFFIN SAVAGED, for Savage Worlds. High quality wild west maps and resources are hard to come by, so I've been waiting for this one for quite a while. Anybody here got it and is willing to provide? Many thanks in advance!
Brayden Miller
Does anyone have these supplements for Hideouts & Hoodlums: - Men & Supermen Vol.1 - Mobsters & Trophies Vol.2 - Underworld & Metropolis Adventures Vol.3 - Supplement 1: National - Supplement 2: All-American - Supplement 3: Better Quality - Supplement 4: Captains, Magicians & Incredible Men Part 1 (Ace ~Fox) - Supplement 4: Captains, Magicians & Incredible Men Part 2 (Harvey ~Timely) - Hideout Module FS1: Sons of the Feathered Serpent - Hideout Module RT1: Palace of the Vamp Queen - Trophy Case Issues 8 thru11
Anyone have the wargame Rifles in the Ardennes, from Tiny Battle Publishing? There's a PNP on Wargame Vault, I know that, but don't think anyone's shared it.
Wyatt Martin
Wormskin is in OSR Trove, not sure about Synthicide
Eli Smith
I agree, French is not a serious language. By that I mean, I can't take anyone serious who speaks French.
Owen Harris
Thirding this request, I'm not in the proper situation to spend any amount of money online, and I want some plane of ooze goodness
Robert Williams
Is there a Veeky Forums on 2ch? Maybe try there, iunno
Connor James
I'm pretty sure the server is hosted in some weird third world country on the other half of the globe with some odd copyright laws, so no one can really touch it. It's literally just a backup of the shit thrown up here and on the vola's, which isn't a bad thing
It's useful for downloading shit on your phone, since using the mega website is a pain in the ass and I don't want to get their app
I wonder what would happen if he uploaded microscope
Jordan Kelly
Just mailed the DC Universe JSA Sourcebook to Carse for scanning. Also sent the Blood of Heroes Sidekick Sourcebook. I think most of that material got rolled into the Blood of Heroes Special Edition, but AFAIK it's never been scanned so there you go. Peace.
John Brown
>I don't know if I will get shit on me for sharing it
Everyone knows about it, it's the first place most people start pirating since it's up clearly on google. One search of "D&D 5e PDF" and it's on the first page
Tyler Watson
Does anyone have the 2nd edition of Lords & Servants? The wargame trove only has the first edition
Dylan Reyes
>that spoiler Don't you dare. But yeah, even the Mega app is sucky.
The big problem I have with the mega app is how awkward it is to get files out of it and into goodreader, where all my other shit is. I have to do it one file at a time.
Luis Taylor
No, you rock user
Bentley King
Mail can't work fast enough...Carse is super fast...can't wait
Luke Wood
Is there a hero trove up? The only link I can find is dead
humbly requesting the Guild Ball season 3 rulebook ( the one with character profiles/fluff)
thank you very much
Liam Cox
>Download everything from the trove >Add your stuff >Make a new trove
Camden Sullivan
Maybe the curator has a life. Maybe he's AWOL. What's the difference? Start your own "lesser" trove like the OSR guys did if you're really that passionate about it.
Or just GTFO. You're attitude won't missed.
Ayden Lee
You aren't entitled to anything. If stuff appears, it appears. That's it.
Mason Reyes
anyone has fantasy age bestiary?
Aiden Powell
Can someone re-up these: Ashen Stars - Accretion Disk Ashen Stars - The Justice Trade
The SS link is dead and they're not in the Gumshoe trove.
