The Electrum Archive - Issue 02
A downloadable zine
“Titan Port. Seat of House Ker Onar. Haven for those who venture forth into the Electrum Sea.”
This is the second issue of The Electrum Archive, an RPG zine series exploring the science-fantasy setting of Orn, a world where adventurers delve into ancient alien shipwrecks in search of a magical ink which is used as both currency and spellcasting fuel.
Issue two focuses on Titan Port, a desert city teeming with scheming factions and opportunities for adventure. It is a perfect starting location for your adventures in the surrounding Electrum Sea and beyond.
What's in this zine?
Besides descriptions of Titan Port's districts and factions, and the wonderful black-and-white illustrations, this thick 80-page zine includes:
- Two table-ready adventures in Titan Port: a dungeoncrawl through an old tomb which now houses a fleshgrafter and her experiments, and a heist to steal an item from an influential warlock's tower.
- A procedure for downtime activities like martial training, crafting, carousing, building institutions, trapping spirits, undergoing fleshgraft surgery, and more!
- Rules for hirelings, drugs, NPC warlocks, traveling the desert, haggling and more!
- New backgrounds and character options for Vagabond, Fixer, and Warlock characters.
- A random mutation table for those unfortunate enough to inhale warpgas.
- Rules for haggling and a table of rare trade goods.
- A large map of Titan Port.

I just checked my backer kit and got the digital PDFs which are lovely.
I noticed there's supposed to be a The Electrum Archive - Digital Soundtrack? Did I miss the announcement or something?
Thank you!
The soundtrack is a stretch goal and will take a while longer to finish up, together with the other stretch goals (character portraits and pregen sheets). I'll update y'all once they're done :)
Thanks!
Greetings!
So it would be advisable to wait a little longer to buy this second issue? So the soundtracks would already be included?
No need! The soundtrack will be made freely available for everyone and won't be bundled with this zine :)
Hey Emiel, this in print soonish? along with V.1? thanks
Yes! Print copies are getting shipped to various shops worldwide next month after KS fulfillment wraps up :)
Cross post from the Good Reads page "Another amazing entry of The Electrum Archive, brimming with atmosphere, interesting and actionable factions, rules and dungeons. TEA 1 and 2 are must buys for anyone who even slightly is interested in things like Morrowind"
Thank you :)
Immediate purchase for me. Electrum Archive Issue 1 is amazing and a personal favourite of mine. This new installment adds heaps of new options, new classes, depth to gameplay, and lore/worldbuilding to an already awesome game. Thank you!
Thank you so much!
It looks great! I've added it to Goodreads:

I've used 'Cult of the Lizard King' as publisher this time, is that okay? If so, I'll get it added to issue 1 (and also add that it is issue 1).
Thank you! And yes, Cult of the Lizard King is good :)
Absolutely excellent follow-up! Beautiful art, layout is immaculate, the system is smooth, and the more of the setting that’s revealed the more I’m drawn in. Thanks for all the cool stuff!
Thank you so much!
