LW: The Darklands

$19.99 SRP

Welcome to Darklands, the book about this most terrible country and the vile beings that rule that blasted scar on the face of Magnamund.

This text will definitively list the Darklords in all their ebon glory, with their powers, their provinces, and their legions in detail. By the time you have finished reading this tome of terror, you will know the ways of evil on Magnamund much better than you did before. You will know which Darklord rules in the domain of Nightmares, which one revels in the applications of torture, and what horrors churn to be awakened in the underhalls of Helgedad. To defeat the Darklords and stop the press of evil, great legends will have to arise. Great powers will have to be mastered. More importantly, great heroes must answer the call of battle.

Can you be such a champion? Can you resist the lure of evil power and fight for the Light? And ultimately, will you have the courage to venture where the road of heroes must eventually go?

RQ2: Monster Island

$29.99 SRP

Monster Island is a companion volume to Monster Coliseum. That book dealt with the arena; this book deals with monsters and creatures of legend in their natural habitat where they are at their most dangerous.

Monster Island details the different habitats and locales of this mythical place, but, more importantly, slots a host of new monsters into their specific ecologies and describes their habits and natures. RuneQuest Games Masters can use the creature statistics to populate their own games, or use Monster Island as a part of their campaign - a dread place of foul creatures and restless spirits.

All the monsters in Monster Island are new to RuneQuest, drawn from the myths and legends of many cultures and folklore. Some are created especially for this book.
