Why Should You Care? and nbsp;

What makes this adventure different? and nbsp;Or noteworthy? and nbsp;Well, in no particular order:

  • The entire Adventure (Adventure Book plus Dramatis Personae and Bestiary) is over 1,000 pages long. and nbsp;So that's kind of interesting.
  • Part One of a 4-part Adventure Path.
  • Fully-realized, detailed adventure setting, complete with fleshed-out NPCs, motivations, plots, side-plots, and tons of full-color maps.
  • NPCs who and quot;feel real and quot;: and nbsp;The author has been a novelist and storyteller for more than 20 years. and nbsp;The backstory and secret motivations of any of the 59 multi-page-detailed NPCs could be its own adventure or adventure path.
  • A and nbsp;standalone adventure that can be played on its own, completely out of context of the larger Adventure Path.
  • Tools to make the adventure and nbsp;dynamic, and play differently every run-through. and nbsp;(For those who have played Ravenloft, and nbsp;think of the Tarot-like game the GM played in secret to randomize item locations and motivations, but expand it to many other aspects of the adventure path as well).
  • Dozens of additional books are planned in the mythos and campaign setting in which Berinncorte sits. and nbsp;10 additional Adventure Paths are already outlined.
