The third part of the Scales of War AP is up:
The third installment in the Scales of War Adventure Path is here! Having saved Overlook from the threat posed by the orog Tusk, the PCs return to the city as heroes. There, they find that something new threatens the city and Elsir Vale beyond it. Their quest to discover who is behind the mountain orcs' organization, as well as their well-armed orog leaders, will take the heroes beyond this world and into the Shadowfell.
In "Siege of Bordrin's Watch," the PCs discovered that dark creepers had sold arms and tactical intelligence to the orc war chief Tusk, aiding him in his attack against the folk of the Stonehome Mountains. In this adventure, the PCs investigate the link between the orcs and the dark ones, stumbling into an arms-running operation bridging two planes and finally confronting the charismatic figure behind it.
Sarshan is an opportunistic shadar-kai arms dealer. For years, he has built an invisible mercantile empire around the sale and brokering of weapons, armor, mercenaries, and intelligence from his domain in the Shadowfell. Though Sarshan plays a significant part in this adventure, the PCs' initial focus is on one of his lieutenants -- a dark creeper shadowborn stalker named Modra.
Indeed.
The adventure seems exciting to run and has some interesting NPCs with lots of roleplaying opportunities. At last, a very good adventure with a bit of story as well.
