Monsters of Murka Campaign Setting (5e)
Monsters of Murka's first full-scale expansion¸ Restaurants and Retail¸ is LIVE now on Kickstarter intil October 9th! The Land of the Free¸ and the Home of the Brave.
Or¸ maybe just the home of bad puns and silly satire.
The all-too-familiar world of Murka sprawls out before you¸ calling upon you¸ adventurer. Will you rise to the occasion to save what's most important in life (and I'm obviously talking about the economy¸ here)?
The Monsters of Murka Campaign Setting is an immersive playable parody of United States pop culture designed for fifth edition¸ filled with recognizable references¸ bad jokes¸ and meme-worthy monsters.
You can expect to encounter freedom dragons¸ redcapped trumplins¸ and oil elementals while wandering the lands of Murka. On the northwestern shores of Murka¸ you can visit the rainy city of Sea-Addled¸ home of the Warlocks of the Shore¸ who hold the secrets of the old gods. They are responsible for bringing to light each iteration of the ancient holy texts¸ the most recent of which being the fifth (and trust us¸ you do not want to ask them about the fourth iteration). Alternatively¸ you may want to visit Holly Woods¸ and mingle with celebrities galore¸ or The Diplomizer himself! But keep an eye out for the Church of Mythatology-they're more powerful than meets the eye. Or¸ if you'd prefer¸ you can set your sites on the capital city of Murka: Washtown¸ home of both Killary and The Don: powerful political pundits who will stop at nothing to rule Murka and its people as they see fit. Where will you make your home? Which leader's right to rule will you fight to uphold?

Stale memes
This setting book may be a satire of a familiar world¸ intended to make you laugh¸ but the opportunities for real adventure you can embark on are limitless. We encourage you to make self-insert OCs like the cringelords you are! Finally get revenge on your school bully by transforming them into a terrible monstrosity¸ no true polymorph necessary! And when your character finally makes the most of your hometown-turned-playable-scenario¸ you can take on the impossible challenge of building an imaginary world where your parents are proud of you and it's super easy to drag yourself out of bed in the morning (no? just me? huh. fair enough)!
Monsters of Murka is designed for you to grapple with the challenges of the modern day in a setting that you control¸ which we feel can be silly just as easily as it can be serious. We believe that satire can be a powerful tool when used appropriately-therapeutic¸ even. We encourage you to use this book to serve that purpose. Or¸ use this campaign setting to educate others! Use this campaign setting to try out a new identity in a safe and familiar environment! The things you can do with this book are limited only by your imagination.
