The Rising Dark: an Introduction to Agraphar

Subtitle: A World of Grim and Gritty Survival Resting in the Shadow of Eternal Chaos From the introduction: The Rising Dark: an Introduction to Agraphar is an experiment in creative setting design. The premise of this book is to provide a sandbox-style setting for use with the 4th edition ruleset that is designed to serve as a useful guide and toolbox of plot ideas for game masters interested in a world and campaign environment that offers just enough detail to provide a useful backdrop to his or her adventures, but not so much detail that the setting proves overwhelming. This volume looks at an overview of the world and its denizens, as well as a gazetteer in two part: being the broad northwestern region of Tariach, and the more detailed northern province of Aruthain, as well as a variety of plot and encounter suggestions. If you would like to see more material set in the world of Agraphar, write the author and let him know!
