Katherine Stark is a game developer and TTRPG designer from Oxford, UK

Hi! I'm Katherine, and I write games! I've been making games of various kinds for several decades and worked on everything from TTRPGs, to video games, to LARP.

My most recent book is Shadow of the Wolf, Massif Press's latest first party adventure module for Lancer RPG - go check it out on the Massif Press store. Pick up Shadow of the Wolf if you're looking for a game of high-stakes political conflict and drama set in the legendary Karrakin Cavalry College, together with ballgowns, backstabbing, and nailbiting mech duels as pilots compete for honour, prestige, and the future of Karrakis itself.

Previously I published Legionnaire: one of Lancer's most popular and well-received third-party supplements. Check out Legionnaire if you want to deep and descend into the fascinating world of NHPs and associated entities in the Lancer setting. As well as fleshing out the lore behind NHPs, Legionnaire also includes a ton of tools for GMs hoping to incorporate them into their games, including generators, sample NPCs, hooks for missions, flashpoints for campaigns, roleplaying guidance, new burdens, a new NPC template, and rules for playing an NHP PC!

Next on the horizon is Far Field, Massif Press' upcoming TTRPG set on the fringes of the Lancer universe, exploring strange new worlds and uncovering the mysteries that lie beyond known space. Development of Far Field is ongoing, and can be followed on the Pilot NET discord server.

Legionnaire was released on March 29, 2023 after an extremely successful Kickstarter campaign. Shadow of the Wolf was released on January 16, 2025 to immediate acclaim. Far Field is currently in development, so watch this space!
