The Return of the Runelords Adventure Path begins here, in the
pine-shaded port town of Roderic's Cove. Grudges and gossip are ever
present in small town life, and Roderic's Cove is no different. The town
has seen its share of troubles in the past with Riddleport pirates and a
haunting by the town's founder, and now those tensions are bubbling up
again. After a deadly brawl breaks out, the heroes must piece together
what troubles the small town. Along the way, they stumble upon something
larger than faction squabbles among the townsfolk--an ancient smoldering
threat has flared to life. The powerful ancient wizards who once ruled
this land are returning!
"Secrets of Roderic's Cove" is a Pathfinder Roleplaying Game adventure
for 1st-level characters. The adventure begins the Return of the
Runelords Adventure Path, an exciting and world-impacting fantasy
campaign set in the frontier lands of Varisia. A selection of new
monsters, a gazetteer of Roderic's Cove, and an ecology of the sinspawn
round out this volume of the Pathfinder Adventure Path.
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.
