Free RPG Day 2009 - Amethyst: Hearts of Chaos / Heroes Handbook: Immortal Heroes
 |
Flipbook containing two special releases!
Amethyst is an RPG that postulates what would occur if a true-to-book fantasy setting was forced upon our real world. How would humanity truly respond? This is not some stylized¸ fanciful view of Earth seen in books and on TV. It is a world with all the problems¸ both social and political¸ intact. Would we welcome the world of fantasy into our lives or would we fear its very presence?
Amethyst: Hearts of Chaos is a special introductory adventure for Amethyst. It was originally released in stores for Free RPG Day and is now available as a low-priced PDF. In this adventure¸ the characters are a small cell of a large international mercenary company¸ the Iron Sons. They have been handed a critical mission: A former Iron Sons colonel¸ Montgomery Cross¸ has gone rogue and vanished in the deep wilderness. He has information on cell locations and strengths¸ but-more importantly-the face of the Iron Sons highest-ranking officer¸ General Chauk-a man with bounties for his arrest. Chauk believes this colonel to be a severe security risk¸ regardless of the state of his sanity. The characters are tasked with venturing into a no man's land where few humans have been¸ finding this colonel¸ and killing him.
Heroes Handbook: Immortal Heroes details nine epic destinies that lead down nine paths to immortality; they are individually as unique as snowflakes¸ yet identical in their ultimate conclusions. These paths may lead a hero to the radiant glory of the celestial realms or to the very depths of Hell itself. Some unlock the lost or hidden potential of a hero's race¸ while others reveal the brutal and everlasting truths of martial superiority.
