PF Module: The Dragons Demand (PFRPG)

$24.99 SRP

The village of Belhaim is nestled in rural Taldor, a minor stop on the road through the Verduran Forest between Maheto and Wispil. When an abandoned tower at the edge of the village collapses during a thunderstorm, a previously unsuspected infestation of kobolds comes to light. Unfortunately for Belhaim, the kobolds are in fact the least of their worries, for something sinister gathers power deep in the nearby expanse of Dragonfen, a swamp with a long history of draconic problems. It’s been many years since a dragon has last menaced Belhaim, but all good times must come to an end. Can the town’s newest adventurers fill the traditional role of dragonslayer and save Belhaim from the new master of the swamp?

Pathfinder Modules: The Dragon’s Demand is deluxe super-adventure for 1st-level characters, and kicks off a relaunch of Paizo’s popular Pathfinder Modules line, which now includes 64 action-packed pages of adventure and a beautiful two-sided full-color poster map with each quarterly release! Players can expect to reach 6th level by the time they complete this epic adventure-if they manage to survive!

The Duke is the newest “abstract” game I have seen. It has a chess like feel to it – that is if chess can be a hyper squirrel doing back flips. Check it out as Matt shares his box with you.

In a few days we hope to have some sample games up for you or a tutorial. Hope you have had fun.

The Worldwound

$19.99 SRP

A century ago, the nation of Sarkoris was murdered. Today, the fallen nation is a horrific, post-apocalyptic nightmare cloven by a vast canyon that connects Golarion to the demon-haunted reaches of the Abyss. This rift is known as the Worldwound, and through it the demonic hordes pour forth, set on defiling the world of mortals and claiming it for their own. Though the demons have so far been held back at the borders by barbarians and crusaders alike, the region that was once Sarkoris remains a fiendish beachhead on the mortal realm. Worse, the Worldwound itself is slowly growing-and if something isn’t done to halt this blight, the demons it spawns might one day swallow all of Golarion!

Inside this book, you’ll find:

-Ruined cities, such as the shattered capital city of Iz, the frozen city of Dyinglight, and the river city of Undarin.

-An exhaustive examination of the strange and otherworldly hazards of this demon-ruled region.

-Key historical sites such as the Circle of the Hierophants, the Shroud of Unicorns, and Threshold, the fortress where the Abyssal portal first opened.

-Adventure sites ready for exploration, as well as locations like the holdout town of Gundrun, a safe harbor in a deadly land.

-More than a dozen new monsters, including several new demons and two new monster templates, ensuring PCs will never lack for foes in this devastated realm!
