RuneQuest Adventures on the Frontier
In Chaos and Darkness the seed of corruption germinates, and propels tts shoots into the light.
In the fertile River of Cradles valley, cradle of civilized Prax, golden fields of barley glow in the sun.
But on the Borderland, the frontier between civilization and the arid wastes, the servants of the dark cults hide their works from sight, and hatch the plots that burst forth like worms from the hearts of earth and men.
Shadows on the Borderland, a Gloranthan campaign supplement for the RuneQuest roleplaying game, features an 80-page booklet, a 24-page GM Reference Pull out with major NPCs and player handouts, and two full-calor pullout maps. In addition to a complete cuH description for Thanatar, the Severed God, Shadows on the Borderland contains three scenarios ready for play:
- Gaumata’s Vision
- Dyskund Caverns
- A Tale to Tell
