From publisher blurb:
Tulan of the Isles is a 75 page Gamesmaster’s aid providing a fully populated urban environment for running city adventures. It is system independent and while designed for fantasy role playing games it’s usable wherever human population centers are found. Despite being designed with our companion products in mind (e.g. Heart Of The Sunken Lands, Tulan of the Isles, Carse, and Cities), Tulan can be dropped into an existing campaign with minimal effort or become the hub of a whole new campaign.
Tulan is a bustling frontier town that provides a trans-shipment crossroads between Jonril and the Sunken Lands and the Bitter Sea trade. It provides an ideal place to outfit an expedition or regroup after a perilous journey. Of course, wherever there are fortunes to be made, there will be fierce competition and those who would prey on the good fortunes of others. Characters can adventure in town, immerse themselves in the rivalry over control of trade, outfit themselves for overland exploration, or turn to banditry ambushing rich caravans. Whatever path your characters choose to follow, Tulan will be a notable backdrop for their adventure.
