The ESPER Grimoire


Introducing the Grimoire of St. Benedict, an expansion for the ESPER Horror TTRPG written by an actual practitioner of the Forbidden Arts. It contains:

  • Four types of magickal beliefs: Animism, Monotheism, Polytheism, and Syncretism
  • Eight schools of magick: Shamanism, Paganism, Devotional Magick, Witchcraft, Alchemy, Folk Magick, Ceremonial Magick, and Divination
  • Eighteen magickal methods: Bardic Magick, Blood Magick, Divinatory Magick, Ecstatic Magick,  Entheogenic Magick, Familiar Magick, Focus Magick, Handcasting, Incantation, Practical Magick, Pranic Magick, Prayer, Ritual Magick, Scholarly Magick, Sigilism, Sympathetic Magick, Talismanic Magick, and Will Magick.
  • Thirty-seven magickal effects which can be combined to create any spell you can imagine.
  • Thirty spells to illustrate how to use the spell effects practically.

This is the fourth expansion for ESPER. The rest are linked from the main game page.

I know I originally promised I'd have the entire first round of expansions out by the first of March, but life enjoys not being kind! There is one more planned book in the first round of expansions, an introductory mission for new ESPER agents. However, I'm going to take a month off (I've been workin' my cheeks off to get this much out in only one month!) so I can take part in several jams, including The Dark Fairy Book MÖRK BORG Jam.  Starting in May, I'll get the first adventure module out and start working on the second round of expansions. I'm also going to begin work on a full manual, which will include all of the information from the rulebook and the first set of expansions in a print format.

Please, make sure to follow and comment on my games so I can know what to do to make it better! Also, don't forget that the ESPER Horror RPG is free to expand upon, even if you want to sell what you make. Join the community and help ESPER grow!
