<br />
Set in Bastet, Everlasting City of the Cat, by the illustrious Mr. Richard Pett himself!</p>
<p>This Pathfinder Roleplaying Game adventure for 1st-level characters is a perfect introduction to the Southlands campaign setting, and it fits neatly into any desert city where cats are sacred and rats are cautious and sly.</p>
<p><a href="http://koboldpress.com/kpstore/product/tomb-of-tiberesh-5th-edition/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow"><b>Tomb of Tiberesh</b></a>
<br />
Tomb of Tiberesh is an adventure for 2nd-level characters. While it does use the 5th Edition rules, it can easily be adapted to Pathfinder!</p>
<p>Outside Per-Bastet, in the kingdom of Nuria Natal, lie the newly discovered remains of Anu-Asir, a city once believed to exist only in myth. And just outside Anu-Asir, across the River Nuria, lies the most recently surfaced relic: the Pyramid of Tiberesh. Dare you explore its deadly mysteries?</p>
<p>This adventure premiered at Gen Con 2015 in Indianapolis, to much acclaim, and is presented here in an expanded version.</p>As Endzeitgeist says, this book is FULL of adventure hooks and ideas, but no actual adventures.

<p><i>"This may well be the best sourcebook Kobold Press has released ... perhaps this is even one of the best sourcebooks I've ever read. Southlands is excellence - if you even remotely are interested in the subject matter, do yourself a favor and get this glorious tome - it contains enough ideas and adventure for a lifetime and I am not engaging in hyperbole here. My final verdict will clock in at 5 stars + seal of approval and I'll also nominate this as a candidate for my Top Ten of 2015. </i></p>
<p>Thanks so much for the wonderful review! A lot of people put in a LOT of time, energy, blood, and sweat into this book, so reviews like this make it all worth while!</p>...Marc Radle2016-03-31T14:51:19Z
