Monsterhearts is a game about messy people who are monsters both inside and out, and those messy people can come from a wide variety of backgrounds.  Skin Crawl is a collection of skins from across the world, one from each continent, many of which come from sources and cultures that are quite often underrepresented in the world of table top gaming.  Inside you will find:

The Baku -- A Japanese demon that feeds on nightmares and takes the burdens of others unto themselves

The Cherruve -- From the myths of the Araucanian peoples of Chile, a fire demon that fell from the sky who is destined to burn out, not fade away

The Gorgon -- A Greek classic, this skin focuses on the victim who has been blamed for their pain taking back their agency.    

The Owl -- From Yakama myth in the Pacific Northwest, these feathered creatures practice ancient magics in secret, fearful they'll be blamed for the crimes of their forbearers.

The Spider -- Inspired by myths from many African legends, the trickster spirit who always gets the better of those around them but is never quite as innocent as they would like you to believe.

The Taniwha -- A Maori water dragon who, demanding respect and gratitude, uses their strength to protect their subjects as well as keep them in line.

(There's a secret bonus at the end, too!)

These skins are written with a focus on not just accurately representing the mythos they stem from, but also providing an analog to the type of teens you might see in film, television, or real life.  They should prove interesting both mechanically as well as within their role in the story being told.   

This is a pay what you want release, and any profit will be spent on hiring an artist to upgrade the look, as well as help fund art for future releases.
