In 2025 I will begin publishing Cairn supplements for third parties, under the moniker Cairn Press.
If you're a writer and want help with editing, layout, or printing I should be able to hook you up with the right people.
My goal is to make more Cairn content and get people paid for their work.

Thanks again everyone.

I made a "barebones" version of Cairn. Sort of. It's the 2e rules but with swingy and random character generation (no tables, no implied setting). I'm still tweaking it a lot so expect some changes.
It's SRD only now, but here you go I guess.
