Veins of the Earth Automated DM Screen


This is for the book that got me into the OSR: the beautiful and horrifying Veins of the Earth by Patrick Stuart and Scrap Princess. I could go on and on about how great this book is, but the work that went into this DM screen will explain that better than words.
(This is mobile-friendly. Consult it from your phone while you're DMing a Veins game.)
(The HARDSHIPS section was made with help from Max Cantor's excellent List Scroll Function.)

STARVATION

A day's worth of rations costs 100sp and takes one encumbrance slot.

10 calories = 1 SP = 1 Lume.



HYPOTHERMIA

Constitution save for every turn(10 mins) spent in hypothermic conditions. On fail, gain a stage of hypothermia.

To recover, must be warmed by a source of heat. Recovers 1hp lost to hypothermia each minute, then wake up. Sensation returns to arms and legs in two turns, hands and feet in one turn.

Mothership: Dead Planet DM Screen

For an excellent little module that has stolen my heart as of late: Dead Planet. (Also highly suggest taking a look at its parent game, Mothership)
This is all about making a DM's life easier, and putting usability first. It's completely mobile friendly, so you can run it from your phone while DMing a game. Table groups unfold and re-fold so you can focus on whichever section of Dead Planet you're using. Gaunt AI is on its own because it's useful throughout the whole module.
