A Picture's Worth…

Thursday, September 6, 2007

With Seven Swords of Sin now out the door and arriving in mailboxes everywhere, it's time to start looking at September's new GameMastery Module. This month we are releasing U1: Gallery of Evil. This module is our first urban adventure (hence the U code), so we thought we would start out proper by exploring one section of Golarion's most important city: Absalom. This vast metropolis sits on the isle of Kortos in the great Inner Sea, making it of vital importance to the region.

Gallery of Evil specifically focuses on the Ivy District, known as being home to many of the city's most influential artists and craftsmen. It's only natural, then, that the adventure focuses on the darker side of art, with one crazed master turning his works loose on his unsuspecting critics. Over the next few weeks, we will explore some of this module with a bit more depth, but for now, here's one of our favorite art pieces and the teaser text from the back of the module.

Art for Murder's Sake

The great city of Absalom is known as a center for trade, education, and art. Inside the Ivy District reside dozens of famous artists, but one has the talent to bring his paintings to life and uses paint to conjure terrible monsters bent on destruction. Can the player characters stop the mad painter before he perfects his art?

Gallery of Evil is an urban adventure for 8th-level characters, compatible with the world's most popular fantasy roleplaying game. This adventure includes details on the metropolis of Absalom's Ivy District, as well as the home of the diabolical artist and his twisted works. The PCs must track down the deadly paintings and discover the true identity of the artist behind it all.

This adventure is the first to feature information on the metropolis of Absalom, one of the largest cities in the Pathfinder Chronicles Campaign Setting.
