From the Deep 1: Uncertain Futures
Uncertain Futures
by Michael McCarthy
An adventure for characters level 1-4
The From the Deep Adventure Path begins in the bustling city of Arbil¸ one of the newer cities of the Ophid Protectorate. Although Arbil has gained a reputation for being able to foresee and avoid problems thanks to its precognitive leader¸ explanations as to why the nearby kobold mines have stopped sending shipments are lacking. The situation reaches a tipping point when an earthquake erupts in the middle of the day¸ with no warning from any of the multitude of seers¸ including the overseer.
Following the earthquake¸ the PCs find themselves thrust into prophecy and tasked with uncovering the cause of the earthquake and the reason it was not predicted in a city renowned for psionic foresight. They will have to journey through the wild lands between Arbil and the mines¸ into the depths of the earth¸ and uncover the source of strange behavior from those in the area.
Also included in Uncertain Futures is detailed information on the kobold race¸ including rules for players who want to play a kobold character¸ rules for dueling in the Protectorate¸ several new monsters¸ and in-depth information about Arbil¸ the starting point of the From the Deep adventure path.
