Misfit Studios Publishing is a Canadian small press business located in Toronto, Ontario. Founded in 2003 by Steven Trustrum, the company publishes a number of role-playing game products under limited and open license terms.

History

Misfit Studios Publishing's founder claims he began the company "after not being paid for his freelance writing one too many times."[1] According to popular online role-playing game retailer, RPGNow, Misfit Studios' first published product was the OGL Barbarian Hawkeye, in January of 2005.

According to its own online store, the company has since published over 150 role-playing game related products[2] of various sizes and prices.

Christina Stiles was a freelancer who worked with Eden Studios beginning in 2002 on a project called Odyssey Prime for her company, Bizarro Games; the game took years to complete, and by the time it was finally released four years later, Bizarro Games was gone – having merged into Misfit Studios – thus, Odyssey Prime was released in PDF and POD only.[3]: 342  Eden Studio also released Enemies Archived (2006), a monster manual for Armageddon in PDF and POD produced in conjunction with Misfit Studios.[3]: 343  The Spirosblaak (2005) setting from Green Ronin Publishing Mythic Vistas series was supported by Misfit Studios.[3]: 372
