Publisher Blurb: Day Five - We have been in Tordan but a day, and already it is clear that Abn Qua was right; something sinister is going on here. A woman has been killed in the ruins outside of town, the trade in arms is brisk, and we have heard many rumors of suspicious characters. One man in particular, of Djaffir, is certainly not who he claims to be. Get involved in the rise of the Sub-Men with the first full-length adventure ever published for the Talislanta system! Designed as a starter kit, The Scent of the Beast introduces both players and GMs to the rules (3rd edition) and setting of Talislanta in a mystery adventure that samples from several different styles of play. Let your players journey to Sindar in search of a traitorous arms merchant and experience the first of a series of adventures that will take them straight to the heart of the Sub-Men uprising.
