Then their castle was sacked in a peasant revolt, the family was hanged, and their name was erased from the histories. All but one. The survivor, a young boy, sold his soul to shadow creatures that haunted the castle, fey and flickering things never seen directly. The creatures always promised power and glory to those who would only listen, and the boy heard, listened, and obeyed the dark shadow fey. When the heroes visit the castle, they step into the dangerous burden of that past. The castle teeters on the edge of the Shadow plane, and things quickly go wrong. The heroes slip through shadow into various reflections of the castle's dark past - and they can set things right.

Steam & Brass was designed using pre-scaled encounters, and is thus usable for parties at 6th, 8th, and 12th level. Its three interwoven plot lines make for higher replay value; three villains can all be the big boss, or they can be the NPCs who hire the party. With a contract with the devil, a new school of magic, and a clockpunk sensibility, it's not your average adventure. </article> <article> <h1>Kobold Quarterly #2</h1> <p>RPGnet Gaming Index — 2008-05-05</p> </article> <article> <h1>Knights of the Dinner Table Magazine #138</h1> <p>RPGnet Gaming Index — 2008-05-05</p> </article> <article> <h1>Night of the Vampire</h1> <p>RPGnet Gaming Index — 2008-05-04</p> You are cordially invited to a masquerade celebrating the engagement of Lady Laina Vandevic to Lord Iajo Moubotka.

What's inside: Book One: Tethyr (96 pages) presents the many facets of Tethyr, from its origin as an elven homeland through its rise and fall as a human nation and up to its recent restoration from anarchy. While this growing realm is now the safest of the Lands of Intrigue, it was once a seat of the malevolent Empire of Shoon - whose influence still haunts the golden plains in the form of roving monsters, wandering ghosts, and the terrors of times past. Book Two: Amn (64 pages) collates all that is Amn - or, as some call it, the Coinland. Money is this countries lifeblood, whether gleaned from the trade along the Sword Coast or the far-off colonies of New Amn. However, a dark dawn has risen on those whose eyes see no further than their ledgers and coin stacks.... Book Three: Erlkazar & Folk of Intrigue (32 pages) reveals the formerly undocumented domain of Erlkazar, east of Tethyr - an area ready to be fleshed out by DMs to suit their individual campaigns. Book Three also holds the secrets of the hidden powers of the South, such as the Cowled Wizards, the Knights of the Shield, the Shadow Thieves, and the undead sorcerors of the Twisted Rune. Two poster maps detail the Lands of Intrigue, the Pirate Isles of the Nelanther, and the center of the long-dead Shoon Empire, the monster-riddled ruins of Shoonach. More than a dozen additional maps depict all the cities of Amn and Tethyr, as well as the distant Maztican colonies. </article> <article> <h1>The North: Guide to the Savage Frontier</h1> <p>RPGnet Gaming Index — 2008-05-03</p> The Savage Frontier, the Barbaric North, the Cold Wastes, the Uneducated Backyard. These, among many others, are nicknames for the North. This is a land of rabid monsters and ruthless barbarians, where nature is the strongest force foe leagues in any direction. The North campaign expansion for the FORGOTTEN REALMS setting is the authority on the lands from Daggerford in the south to Ten-Towns in the north, from Anauroch in the east to the Ice Peak in the west. This new campaign expansion contains everything a player or Dungeon Master needs to adventure in this savage and perilous territory, including:<ul><li>The Wilderness - A 96-page timeline and geographical overview of the north, featuring a description of the land's natives and monsters and including out-of-print information found in TSR's accessory <a href="http://index.rpg.net/display-entry.phtml?mainid=2331">FR5 The Savage Frontier</a>. <li>Cities and Civilization - 64 pages of facts on all the cities, towns, and hamlets in the North. <li>Daggerford - a 32-page book describing a complete city designed to be a hometown for your campaign's bravest heroes, with detailed building descritions based on information from the old TSR adventure <a href="http://index.rpg.net/display-entry.phtml?mainid=1202">N5 Under Illefarn</a>. <li>Two Poster Maps - Full-color sheets showing the entire environs of the North. On the reverse side is a map of the town of Daggerford, plus an extensive set of random encounter tables.</uL> </article> <article> <h1>Sons of Liberty</h1> <p>RPGnet Gaming Index — 2008-05-03</p> ons of Liberty is a roleplaying game where the League of Extraordinary Gentlemen play Dynasty Warriors during the American Revolution. You play patriots such as Thomas Jefferson, Ben Franklin, and Abigail Adams first engineering the revolution and then ensuring it all goes according to plan. The game's fast-paced card mechanics ensure high-action madness and revolutionary heroics. If you are playing Benjamin Franklin and you aren't swinging an electrified kite over your head, clearing the streets of redcoats, then you are playing it wrong. The game is pick-up-and-playable in Battle Mode in one evening. It can also be played over multiple sessions in Campaign Mode, where players unlock new characters, new abilities, and new stages of the revolution in play. And when there's just two of you with nothing to do, you can bust out Versus Mode and play in the wake of the revolution as the Sons of Liberty become each other's most frustrating enemies. </article> <article> <h1>Spellbound</h1> <p>RPGnet Gaming Index — 2008-05-03</p> The Unapproachable East. Legendary region of unrivaled magic and profound mystery, the lands on the border of the Endless Waste have tantalized and captivated adventurers in the Forgotten Realms since word of their existence reached the west. Few have returned from travels in those lands, and those who did reveal tales too peculiar for truth - or so it was though until now. Here at last are the secrets of three of the most mysterious--and dangerous--nations in all of Faerûn: Thay, land of the treacherous Red Wizards; Aglarond, home to the unimaginably powerful Simbul; and Rashemen, realm of enigmatic Witches and wild berserkers. Adventurers beware: The treasures and excitement of the Unapproachable East invite the courageous, yet strangers are never welcomed! </article> <article> <h1>Ruins of Zhentil Keep</h1> <p>RPGnet Gaming Index — 2008-05-03</p> Known throughout the Realms as the headquarters of the Zhentarim, Zhentil Keep has long been a trade hub, a seat of power, and a nest of corruption at the edge of the Moonsea. This boxed set details Zhentil Keep in the days of the Bane of the Black Lord, before the Time of Troubles. It also presents the new Zhentil Keep, a city nearly destroyed by the insane Cyric, Prince of Lies. </article> <article> <h1>Pages from the Mages</h1> <p>RPGnet Gaming Index — 2008-05-03</p> <i>Any rogue can craft a spell - but it takes a really reckless fool to write one down.</i> Thus, the wizard Elminster introduces the latest collection of wizardly lore from the Forgotten Realms, including:<ul><li>New spells from mages such as Daltim, Darsson, and Myrl. <li>Fell creatures - the Tome Guardian, the Disenchanter, and the Scalamagdrion. <li>Details of more than 40 spellbooks - appearance, history, the magic they contain, and what is known of the fates of their makers.</ul> </article> <article> <h1>The Seven Sisters</h1> <p>RPGnet Gaming Index — 2008-05-03</p> Beautiful, powerful, mysterious, and deadly - the silver-haired Seven Sisters are legendary throughout the Forgotten Realms. One rules the city of bards, Silverymoon. Another is Elminster's beloved and the infamous Witch-Queen of Aglarond. The third is the Lady Mage of Waterdeep, peer and consort of Khelben "Blackstaff" Arunsun, and the fourth is a Harper and one of the famous Knights of Myth Drannor. The fifth is a leader of the Harpers and a legendary bard in her own right, and the sixth is a dead - perhaps undead - witch. And the seventh? She's the one who wild tales are whispered about all across Faerûn around many a fireside late at night. But who are they, really? Their very names conjure up romance, allure, and power - Storm Silverhand, the Simbul, High Lady Alustriel. Sages say they are among the Chosen of Mystara, archmages who wield magic few can dare to stand against. Yet these seven do not seek to rule the world, and they often stay quiet and hidden for generations. That hints at another thing. These seven seem immortal, never aging as the long years pass. Just who are these Seven Sisters, and what are their secrets? </article> <article> <h1>Skullport</h1> <p>RPGnet Gaming Index — 2008-05-03</p> Skullport, the Port of Shadow, is perhaps the best kept secret in all the Sword Coast North. A mile and a half beneath the orderly streets of Waterdeep squats the most wretched and lawless pits of thieves, buccaneers, slavers, and sellswords the Realms has to offer. Under a moldering tangle of catwalks threaded between the stalactites and stalagmites of the cavern city, illithids, drow, beholders, and others plot and trade with emissaries from the surface. Monsters prowl the dark recesses and alleyways, gangs of zombies shamble about performing menial labor, and anything and everything can be bought and sold: lethal poisons, foul tomes of forbidden magic, and slaves. The only law is meted out by the enigmatic Skulls of Skullport, mysterious floating humanoid skulls whose capricious judgments and madness-induced destructiveness are the stuff of grisly travelers' tales. Gold rules the ever-present twilight, and only those with keen eyes and blades may keep it long. </article> <article> <h1>Polymancer V2, #2</h1> <p>RPGnet Gaming Index — 2008-05-03</p> </article> <article> <h1>Empires of the Shining Sea</h1> <p>RPGnet Gaming Index — 2008-05-03</p> The dusty trails from the North have brought you to the warm and welcoming coasts of the Shining Sea and the Lake of Steam. Here is history spanning millennia, not just centuries; passion, profit and danger; dreams of power and conquest; and wonders mysteries centuries older than any hedge realm north of Dalagar's Road and the Snowflake Mountains. Empires of the Shining Sea goes farther and deeper into the southern reaches of the FORGOTTEN REALMS campaign setting, providing a breadth of scope and a level of detail never before published. This boxed set includes a 192-page book filled with information on these topics: <ul><li><b>History.</b> The Empires of the Shining Sea hold tales and legends passed down by word of mouth across the years.

Scarlet pearls the size of a human fist or the smoking majesty of the volcanic Arnrock tempt those who dare test its deceptively calm waters.</ul> Also inside are two full-color poster maps showing Calimshan and the Lake of Steam region at 30-mile-per-inch scale. </article> <article> <h1>Calimport</h1> <p>RPGnet Gaming Index — 2008-05-03</p> What can one truly know about a place until he or she has experienced it firsthand?

Numerous magical items and artifacts, many of which hide among Calimport's shadows, from the Battlecloak of Vycaena and the Codex Thealnakkar to the Staff of Shoon and the Tome of Secrets. Everything you need to know about the peril-riddled alleys, palaces, and underworld of the most dangerous city on Faerûn is contained within this 96-page book. Walk the dark paths among the sabbans or fly among the gilded minarets, but know that a thousand eyes and a thousand intrigues swirl about you at any moment!
