 |
Elminster has been murdered.
And to make matters worse¸ the player characters who helped to save Shadowdale from the armies of Zhentil Keep in Shadowdale (FRE1) have been sentenced to death for killing the old sage. Theyre innocent¸ of course¸ but in this time of troubles in the Realms¸ truth and justice are not always served. Imprisoned in the Tower of Ashaba¸ the heroes must escape if they are to survive!
Later¸ when the heroes start their quest for the first of the mysterious Tablets of Fate - mighty artifacts stolen from the overlord of the gods himself - they come up against an even greater peril: Bane¸the God of Strife¸ and his ally¸ the God of Death¸ have set in motion a plot to capture the heroes and their companions. You must face deadly assassins¸ nightmarish monsters¸ and violent storms on your way across the Dalelands. And the worst threat of all is an unexpected one - the man who helped you earlier has now joined the side of Bane and the forces of Zhentil Keep.
Tantras is the second of a three-part series of adventures for the ADVANCED DUNGEONS & DRAGONS 2nd edition roleplaying game¸ but it can also stand alone. Set in the popular FORGOTTEN REALMS game world¸ this adventure is loosely based on Richard Awlinsons Tantras¸ the second novel in the Avatar Trilogy. This adventure is designed for four to six player characters of levels 6-9.
