Life and Death
A scenario/sourcebook for OpenQuest using the ‘Shattered Lands’ setting
“One day this city will have to choose between Life and Death”
The Prophet before being taken to his execution, one hundred years ago in the city state of Miraz.
Miraz the Golden is sees itself inheritor of the old Lion Empire. It is an oppressive military police state which seeks to dominate its neighbours. Some say the wrath of the gods has been brought down because of its hubris and it is currently stricken by a plague. Its Tyrant looks on from his remote palace as the victims of the plague shuffle round the streets as newly risen zombies. While his heirs fight amongst themselves to see who will succeed their father, when he is toppled by the rebellion that is fermenting in the streets.
Into this madness step the beginning adventurers out to make a fortune and a name for themselves.
This scenario/sourcebook features two open and non-linear adventures and information about the city state of Miraz and the setting of the Shattered Lands. It is an epic self contained mini-campaign that is designed to picked up and played, or be a mine of ideas for a Gamesmaster looking to adapt it to his/her own campaign.
It is scheduled for releaseĀ Summer 2010.
