Crypt of the Mellified Mage
Lit by guttering candles¸ the timeworn saint's shrine still reeks of burnt offerings. Plaster dust floats in the still air as you smash away a mosaic depicting a wondrous healer tending wounds with a honeyed touch ‐ eyes become bright and clear¸ limbs vital rather than withered¸ the dead rise from their graves and dance about him. As the mural crumbles beneath your determined blows¸ a blackened iron door is revealed¸ decorated with the image of a bee. The air beyond is stale¸ yet tinged with the putrid smell of spoiled meat and something oddly floral....
This volume collects four adventure sites for the Forbidden Lands roleplaying game¸ written by some of the best writers in the field today. Within these pages you will visit a dungeon of dripping honey¸ explore a firing pit for magical pottery¸ stand in awe of the temple of a monkey king¸ and go on a dizzying tour through the mind of a mad mage.
