Savage battlecries and screams of pain echo through the streets and off the raw sheer walls that make up the carved stronghold of Forstor Nagar. The cannibalistic troops of The Hungering Legion have breached the gates, and the defenders have been routed.
Trapped in the heart of Forstor Nagar, the ambassador from Ithulandis, the City of Adventure, must be rescued. But the redoubt is cut from the living ice of the Forstorheim glacier, and enemies rip the very life from the inhabitants. Only scant hours remain before the alleys are slick with a crimson slush. Welcome to the Breaking of Forstor Nagar!
Adventurers must cross the invaders’ lines to infiltrate the fortress, locate the diplomatic compound and escape with the ambassador before filed teeth sink into thier flesh and the fate of the city is sealed forever. Beautifully rendered, full-color cartography brings Forstor Nagar to life, giving you a frozen city of glassy ice bridges, chilling meltwater canals, and fog shrouded secret tunnels—but only as the party explores them, maintaining a “fog of war” and interactive components like opening doors and chests. Detailed evocative tokens with suggested placement ensure that players easily imagine the forces hunting them throughout their mission.
Designed to function as both a traditional adventure (ca. 15,000 words – roughly 32 pages) and with the free Maptool virtual tabletop, DMs will be able to track initiative and hit points while accessing macros that allow for attacks and damage to be auto-calculated. Game control stays where it should, with the players! All this is combined with detailed locale descriptions and complemented with links to the Pathfinder Roleplaying Game Standard Resource Document (SRD). Patron input will help define aspects of the setting and establish the intended level of difficulty.
The Breaking of Forstor Nagar: City of Grinding Ice an expedition to remember. Sign up below!
