Crypt of the Mellified Mage

Lit by guttering candles, the time worn saint's shrine still reeks of burnt offerings. Plaster dust floats in the still air as you smash away a mosaic depicting a wondrous healer tending wounds with a boneyed touch - eyes become bright and clear, limbs vital rather than withered, the dead rise from their graves and dance about him. As the mural crumbles beneath your determined blows, a blackened iron door is revealed, decorated with the image of a bee. The air beyond is stale, yet tinged with the putrid smell of spoiled meat and something oddly floral...This volume collects four adventure sites for the Forbidden Lands roleplaying game, written by some of the best writers in the field today. Within these pages you will visit a dungeon of dripping honey, explore a firing pit for magical pottery, stand in awe of the temple of a monkey king, and go on a dizzying tour through the mind of a mad mage. This book contains:Crypt of the Mellified Mage by Fiona Maeve GeistThe Firing Pit of Llao-Yutuy by David McGroganTemple of the Six-Limbed Lord by Zedeck SiewThe Dream-Cloud of E'lok Thir by Adam Koebel
