Fresh from their successes in Escadar, the heroes bring their traveling
circus to the Isle of Kortos--the so-called Starstone Isle at the heart
of the Inner Sea. As their circus tours the farming communities in the
breadbasket known as the Swardlands, the heroes get a chance to explore
the three aeon towers that impart enchanted bounty to the land. Yet all
is not well in the Swardlands, as ecological damage and raiding beasts
threaten the hardworking farmers and loggers. The heroes must overcome
the aeon towers' stony guardians, entrenched xulgath hordes, and a
zealous dero murderer before they can confront the xulgaths' alchemist
leader and disrupt his disastrous scheme to use the aeon towers to bring
ruin to everyone on the island!
"Life's Long Shadows" is a Pathfinder adventure for four 9th-level
characters. This adventure, from author Greg A. Vaughan, continues the
Extinction Curse Adventure Path, a six-part, monthly campaign in which
the heroes lead a traveling circus as they unravel a plot to eradicate
all life from the islands of the Inner Sea. This adventure also includes
information about the bountiful area known as the Swardlands and the
malevolent demon lord Zevgavizeb, as well as new monsters and rules.
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.
