Description

From Kickstarter:

Tasked with leading a daring rescue mission, the PCs must trek through an unforgiving and primeval forest known as The Shadows. Therein, deep within the darkest corners and dimmest mist they must contend with the savage Vulture Clan Brule; unlock the mysteries of a lost race of elder world beings; recover an alien artifact of immeasurable power; and thwart the sinister machinations of a hidden cult determined to bring the world to its knees – if they plan to return with the captured girl and their very lives.

Part hex crawl, part dungeon delve, part investigative mystery, this adventure is inspired by the works of Robert E. Howard, H.P. Lovecraft, Clark Ashton Smith, and others. Devoted aficionados of Appendix N material will recognize many classic pulp fantasy tropes within; elder world sorcery, eldritch abominations, lost civilizations, and the eternal struggle between barbarism and civilization. Readers will find no orcs or goblins here. This is a land of maddening horrors and forgotten sorcery, where eldritch gods stir from the slumber of moon-cursed dreams and squamous shapes coil in the dark and silent places of the world.
