From the Back of the Book: Welcome to Iron Heroes! You are about to enter a world where skill, cunning, and tactics are far more useful than a +3 sword. The perils your characters face here can only be overcome with steady nerves and cold steel. Mysterious relics from an inhuman race have been found in the forest, and with them come great danger. From giant spiders to corrupted cultists and dreaded alien races, strange menaces abound. If the innocent are to be saved, if the treasure is to be won, if the monsters are to be slain, the situation demands -- iron heroes. Song of the Blade is an introductory Iron Heroes module that takes a group of four beginning PCs to approximately 4th level. Along the way they become familiar with the town of Axenbough, as well as the nearby Meanderwood Forest and perhaps the foothills of the Godsfang Mountains. Axenbough is a cheerful community on the surface, reaping the bounty of the forest, but a vile presence is beginning to make itself felt. A spidery race called the Aatarkhop ruled this land eons ago. Now the actions of a few heedless cultists are calling the wicked arachnoids from their slumber.
