Necro Portal RPG

Necro Portal RPG 

"Advancing upon the final flight of bone cobbled steps, you come within arms reach of the orb of Necrotep resting on a sandstone block. As your arm trembles greedily to take the jewel of darkness, the sound of clattering boots approaches from the blackness far down the steps behind you."

Kick down dungeon doors across the darkened realms of the necroverse! In Necro Portal RPG we uncover the cryptic language of the dark wizards, and break the seals of enchantment barring the would-be adventurer from hordes of treasure.

To uncover the riches of the diabolical world of the undead, our heroes (or villains) must discover hidden portals routed across cemeteries, ancient tombs, forsaken ruins, and forgotten battlefields.

Discover the secret language of the necromancer elite, and delve deep into the forbidden lore of Murol, the goddess of portals.

Necro Portal RPG is on sale for $9.99, and reads well on your Kindle or iPad, as a matter of course!

 This portal role-playing book follows the path on the elemental wheel of the polarity of salt, as well as the powers of venom. To begin this saga of Necro portals, we must recognize the deity responsible for the creation of the first necromancer's portal. Mural is her name. 

Murol is the goddess of portals in the Nine Portals RPG Necroverse. This deity is the link in a growing chain of portal lore which bridges the gap between fantasy and technical details in role playing with portals. Read the Lore and Introduction to this marvelous new addition to the role-playing fantasy world:

Teleportation technology is man's greatest triumph over the realms. Wielding the power of the gods, man has now claimed a new frontier beyond the space/ time continuum. A new era of quasi-worlds and virtual realms has made it possible for humankind to reach up into the higher planes of existence in a parallel [multi] dimensional construct known to the high-tech civilizations as a slip-gate. 

All the wonders of the universe are now open to humanoids of all races [and other species]. But, alas, so are the horrors of the deepest and darkest abysses in the ultimate void. 

Our first unforeseen consequence of this portal technology begins with the story of Talos. 

Above is my first printout and sketch of the portals manual for necromancers. The title is Necro Portal RPG: The Goddess of Portals. 

In this wondrous volume on role-playing with portals, Necro Portal takes us into the dark realms wherein all fantasy characters are subject to the laws of diabolical technology, insidious magic, and sardonic sorcery. Whereas most of Nine Portals books are presented in an open-ended fashion, featuring the multitude of portals and portal constructs, this particular volume is truly for the necromancer character and the game master who delves in the darker corners of role-playing games. 

Read this first volume of Necro Portal, and learn how Murol turned away from the All-Father, Alu, his son and the King of the Golden Age, Gygatherion, and betrayed even her mother, the goddes Venom, for immortality and power. This is a manual for strategically placing necro portals and networks of diabolical portals in a fantasy adventure game, as well as a lush volume of lore about the goddess of portals.

Necro Portal Role-Playing Game and Book of Lore: The Goddess of Portals and the Daughters of Venom

Climbing for what seems and eternity up bone-cobbled steps, you arrive at the archway to the necromancer's portal. There upon a pedestal rests the crystal skull of Malaar the sage. As you reach out for it with greedy hands, you detect the presence of evil on the steps behind you!

Welcome, adventurers and looters of evil relics! 

Nine Portals RPG (9PRPG) has released series after series of RPG books since 2009 for Amazon Kindle. We're thrilled to release this shortened manual on the lore of the Goddess of Portals, and the various necro portal constructs, spells, and characters for role play and fantasy adventure hobbyists.

The portals to the underworld of the necromancy elite have opened! Long before the rise of King Futharion of Gaia Saar, and even before the time when mighty Alu and Gygatherion hefted the brimstone framework of the first fire portals in primordial earth, there was a feud between the gods which shook the fabric of the universe.

In this publication of Necro Portal RPG: The Goddess of Portals, we digest the lore of the ancient necromancers, and delve deep into the legendary God Wars long before the universe was blessed with life.

A slew of devices, constructs, portals, and new spells for the necromancer elite is included for your role-playing enjoyment.

The infinite void is the ultimate potential for creation, manifestation, and the birth of new universes. Of all universes none is so dreadfully feared by the mortal races than the infamous Necroverse. 

The Necroverse exists as a quasi universe, a sort of virtual world laid over the realm of the dead. In this verse the necromancers elite reigns supreme. However, this Necroverse is not independent of other worlds. Rather, all mortal realms provide the necessary foundation for which the Necroverse is built upon. 

Spanning infinite realms of man and beast is a network of portals which allow for the necromancers  to enter and exit the lands of the living at will. Hidden in the tombs of kings or in the shunned necropolises or in the graveyards of modern cities are the gates to the Necroverse. 

In a quasi-universe existing between the world of the living and the dead, the order of the D'Hern rise from their cryptic portals to seize the realms of man for their own ends.

Necro portals are truly the most exciting portals in the 9Portals universe. With necro portals we are able to create complex and in-depth adventures revolving around many of the shunned places in the realms. Networks of portals can be plotted across graveyards, cemeteries, ancient temples, abandoned citadels or ruins, and ancient battlefields forsaken.

Below is an old excerpt from the manuscript for Necro Portal RPG. The book has been revised, and is now available on Amazon Kindle.

The infinite void is the ultimate potential for creation, manifestation, and the birth of new universes. Of all universes none is so dreadfully feared by the mortal races than the infamous Necroverse. 

The Necroverse exists as a quasi universe, a sort of virtual world laid over the realm of the dead. In this verse the necromancers elite reigns supreme. However, this Necroverse is not independent of other worlds. Rather, all mortal realms provide the necessary foundation for which the Necroverse is built upon. 

Spanning infinite realms of man and beast is a network of portals which allow for the necromancers  to enter and exit the lands of the living at will. Hidden in the tombs of kings or in the shunned necropolises or in the graveyards of modern cities are the gates to the Necroverse. 

In this infamous volume, we will explore the realm of mankind's most dreaded enemy, the undead. As a matter of course, this tome of evil fantasy will serve as a manual for game masters to map the Necroverse, plot necro portals in strategic locations, and route teleportation across various maps. 

The peak of your darkest fantasy gaming experience is limited only by your imagination. 

From the essential salt of the dead, a mixture of stone, bone, and sometimes various metals, are combined to create the arch for the entrance to the infamous realm of the undead wizards. The Necroverse must feed from the world of the living, or its magical framework will collapse into the world of the true dead. 

Once there existed the great kingdom of Gaia Saar, which was ruled by the wise and gifted seer King Futharion. It was in the south peninsula of Futharion's kingdom where the necromancers first revealed themselves to the men of Gaia Saar. This peninsula was named Talos. In ancient Talos the wizards of Alu guarded a wealth of ancient knowledge concerning the portals of the original and primordial world before Futharion's ancestry set a throne upon Gaia Saar. The vorpal technology of lord Gygatherion, Futharion's father, was the very power which destroyed the cyborg invaders of Emperor Veximus. However, the interruption of a new player on the battlefield destroyed the entire world. That player was the necromancers elite.

Linear or Cyclical/ Orbital Portals for RPG

"Charge in! Break down dungeon doors! Or, seek ancient enigmas across thresholds! Linear/orbital RPG routers are different devices for different campaigns!" 

Create linear maps to run encounters in sequence. Employ linear maps for RPG adventures wherein the campaign must follow a set course of events.

Use orbital (cyclical) maps for role-playing where the universe is a far more complex array of dynamic events, spectacular interdimensional battles, and in the use of portals between numerous maps. 


If your player characters set out on a fantasy adventure quest which requires moving between maps frequently, then chances are you are running a campaign with multiple portals. A linear map is too stringent, and is intended for a low level reference map, say a kingdom or a city. The orbital map is your best friend as the game master in this situation of events, encounters, plot, and so on. 


Implement numerous maps into your role playing game by linking high and low level maps through a documented matrix of portals.
