The Ruby Phoenix Tournament begins! The sorcerer Hao Jin has returned to
Tian Xia to host her decennial international fighting tournament, and
contestants from all over the world have arrived to try their chance at
winning a prize from her vault of incredible treasures. Before they can
compete in the tournament, however, fighters must first complete a
series of qualifying challenges on the uninhabited tropical island of
Bonmu, where wild dinosaurs roam amid the ancient ruins of a lost
civilization. Can the heroes defend their island stronghold, outlast
their many ruthless rivals, and survive the perils of so-called Danger
Island? Let the competitors decide!
"Despair on Danger Island" is a Pathfinder adventure for four 11th-level
characters. This adventure begins the Ruby Phoenix Tournament Adventure
Path, a three-part monthly campaign in which the players compete in
Golarion's most amazing fighting tournament. This adventure also
includes new rules to help the Game Master create an entire roster of
rival fighting teams, maps and lore of the dangerous tropical island of
Bonmu, and a boatload of new island monsters.
Each monthly full-color softcover Pathfinder Adventure Path volume
contains an in-depth adventure scenario, stats for several new monsters,
and support articles meant to give Game Masters additional material to
expand their campaign. Pathfinder Adventure Path volumes use the Open
Game License and work with both the Pathfinder RPG and the world's
oldest fantasy RPG.
