Okay now I'm geeked!
9,999 Steps to Terror! And "yakfolk" in the banner text. My god, they've made it! They've made it just like "evil soap" and "giant fiendish oysters" before them.
Annapuma (with Liverpool accent): "We're bigger than flumphs!"
Alas, no Sehan cover. And I thought for sure Rakeri, Kanuut, Annapuma, or even one of the baddies in the Pagoda could have pulled it off. And they would have too if it weren't for those meddling editors and their Adventure Path. ;)

I share your sentiment about the Sehan arc not making the cover, but what a great cover artwork piece that is anyway!!!
Yes, I am sure that my maiden aunt the former nun (before going into teaching) will love it.

Farewell2Kings....Is that a Rush reference? Which is one of my favorite albums (errrr......CDs....crappy aging process) by the way. They are touring this Summer in the south and I will be seeing them again this June.
As for the next issue....I am running the STAP, it looks like if I can't kill or at least humble someone(which I never set out to do...I let the players make the choices and they will live and die by those choices) in Scuttlecove....an abyssal prison may just be the ticket to put uppity PCs in their place. Can't wait to read it...........
Nice artwork....since i am running STAP...I prefer an image to enhance my campaign.
Scorba...The Crimson Terror of Rhudaur
Scorba...The Crimson Terror of Rhudaur
And here I was always a bigger fan of Aivnec the young fire drake who assaulted Nothva Rhaglaw in that no-mans land called the Northern Marches.
The Great Green God
Hand of Angmar
Yes, Scorba--it is a Rush reference and yes, I am going to see them again this summer as well.

Now that is a title.........
I, Scorba, am humbled in your presence.....Hand of Angmar, but know this I am no vassal of the Witch King, as you must be. I rule supreme within the lands of Rhudaur, though the tasty elves of Rivendell may oppose my claim. Speak my name in that court and watch the two-legs cower in fright.
Scorba
To show that I am a magnanimous I present this humble quasi-official 9 page web enhancement for the Seeds of Sehan Arc in general and Pagoda in particular.
Enjoy.

It should go without saying that the whole thing is a spoiler, but I guess it won't... SPOILERS!

Warning: Self-Serving Threadjack!
I'd love to get feedback or other commentary on "The Aundairian Job." I'd even be happy to hear how it looks in terms of art and presentation, because it'll be a while before I'll get to see it. 147 has alredy reached Europe, but it'll probably be another month before Canada Post delivers mine to Ottawa...

I've begun reading the Aundairian Job - it sounds very intriguing. I'll give a further review on it when I'm done prying it out of my hubby's hands.

For art you got the slightly whimsical but always interesting Jeff Laubenstein of "Final Resting Place," and "Swords of the Dragonslake" fame. Though he has nay-sayers I like him. Your splash page depicts some dwarven guards being overcome while an elfin woman shhhes a bear standing on his hind legs. Next we have an arrowhead themed potrait of someone named Solinthas (sorry, I've been too busy drooling over Dread Pagoda to read anything else yet). Then comes the very cool Rob Lazzaretti map of the Kundarak Compound. The next piece is of the "guardian" an animated statue that looks abit like the dwarf ancestor from MM3. In the picture he is causing a dwarf to topple down what looks a bit like an ancient elevator shaft. Then there's a nice close up of what I guess is the Tigerbreath Crucible. Last, but not least is a full-body shot of Rurin d'Sivis wearing pointy toed shoes, stripped green pants a furlined brown gnomish duster and something akin to a snood, or maybe it's a burnoose? A fez? Well, it's an interesting pointy green hat anyhow. In the picture he is carrying a really cool eternal wand of magic missile which is drawn to look like the most serious (glowing) letter opener I have ever seen.
It's cool sharing the space with you. Hope that helps.

Thanks Lilith and GGG!
I'm very anxious to get my copy. Hmmm... Tigerbreath Crucible... better than the name I used.
Is Rurin possibly in PJ's with a nightcap? That'd be funny, and appropriate. I like Jeff Laubenstein as well, mind you, I can't offhand think of any art I've seen in Dungeon recently that I didn't like. Guardian throwing someone down the elevator, excellent.
And it is very much my pleasure to be published alongside so many great names that I know are great folks!
