Publisher's blurb:
Is your band of adventurers stuck on the sidelines because there’s no one to run the game? Have no fear, the wait is over! This first installment of a players-only adventure will allow you to create detailed characters and run them through five levels of dungeon-delving danger while interacting with the town of Mountain View as they progress. Fight the monsters, find the treasure, barter with merchants, then brag about it at the tavern and get into a bar brawl, all without any down time to prep for the next adventure.
Back to Basics uses the prime essentials which make d20 gaming fun and leaves out the tedious rules that can bog down a good gaming session. Character creation can be anything from a ruthless, Human warrior to a nimble, Elven spell-wielder to a noble Dwarven Paladin or a traditional Cleric who can turn undead with the best of them. Fine-tune your character with skills and feats to build the hero you want, then romp around in a Goblin infested under-mountain realm of treacherous passages, flooded chambers and devious traps that will test your dungeon delving resolve. Best of all: the adventure is replayable.
Path of Legends adventures are built with a number of random elements that make it impossible to have the same experience the next time around. The dice-rolling doesn’t end when you finish the book – just make some new characters and run the gauntlet again. Optimized for a party of four, but easily modified for more or less players, Back to Basics is an essential manual for the busy weekend warriors because the minutes of a weekly gaming session are too valuable to waste not having fun.
