From publisher blurb:
With Pek's Peril you'll lead your players through a secret level in a vast apocalyptic setting where humankind is forced to fight for its survival in the Empire's GAMES. The party will travel through a fantasy style landscape, fighting enemies, negotiating with locals, and attempting to rid the land of its ravenous overlord, Grendar the Hungered.
Giant obelisks have come down from the sky and humanity and other underdeveloped civilizations are forced to compete against one another in the GAMES, an epic contest which will determine which races survive and which are annihilated and stripped for parts. Five un-evolved worlds have been chosen to fight in the Games for the Empire’s entertainment and the winning world will be invited to join the Empire.
But the Empire is not a singularly unified kingdom. A rogue A.I. with god-like powers and a fixation with humanity has taken it upon itself to create a series of characters drawn from works of literature and have them compete together in the GAMES. So humanity is given another chance to survive and their best hope lies with these few fictional characters, brought to life and inhabited by their creators in a thrilling adventure where the stakes couldn’t be higher.
Pek's Peril features one such adventure where fictional characters are sent off to fight in the GAMES but matters quickly get out of hand and strangeness ensues!
