| |
| − | All the people of Eredane know that freedom is a dying word. The Shadow in the North is a seemingly unstoppable force. The weak and the mad give in to his dark temptations, while the strong and the wise can only fight, and die. Some say that there is no hope against the dark lord and his Night Kings. <br> But the land of Eredane is vast and older than men or elves; throughout the ages, many things have been lost amidst is open plains, its hidden crags, its dark forests, and its cold lakes. Some of those things have been uncovered by accident or design, by the minions of the Shadow or by the forces of light who resist his insane and cruel plans ... these are the secrets of shadow.

| − | ==EVIL in the World==
| |
| − | ===NIGHT KINGS===
| |
| − | * '''JAHZIR''': the Sword of Shadow. Jazir is the most known of all Night Kings, the absolute ruler of Erenland. His frequent court is in the city of ???. Early in the winter of ??? he began a pilgrimage to Erenhead where it's said he would name the generals that would continue leading his armies. The most feared turn of events would be to know who would take over the Kaladrune campaign.
| |
| − | * '''SUNULAEL''': the Priest of Shadow. Though little is known of the Priest, all know it is he that has the potential of being the dominant of the Night Kings. His mechinations worm as tenticles through all Shadow units. He is supreme priest of the Order of Shadow and rules the Legates through fear and promise. His court waivers between the city of Cambrial to the South and within the halls of Theros Obsidia in Highwall (??). Early in the Winter of ?? he has begun feuling Jahzir's armies with an undead host emenating from Cambrial.
| |
| − | * '''ZARDRIX''': the Wrath of Shadow. The dragon beast said to have little care left and perhaps less sanity in neverending destructive service to the Shadow. She spends a great deal of time on her perch in Theros Obsidea and amidst the land she surveys in the Norther Marches.
| |
| − | * ''' ??? ''': the Sourceror of Shadow. Little to nothing is known of this Night King.

| |
| − | '''House Rules in effect in The Scroll Bearers campaign:'''
| |
| − | * No XP penalty for multiclassing. Instead, characters with levels in a preferred class gain a bonus feat at 1st, 5th, and 10th class level.
| |
| − | * Bonus skill ranks from high intelligence can be used to buy a full rank in non-class skills, not a half-rank.
| |
| − | ''[These house rules were adopted from d20 Conan by Mongoose.]''
| |
| − | * Beyond the spells granted by Channeler levels and feats, channeling spellcasters can learn a number of spells equal to their casting ability modifier each character level. The total number of spells a character can learn in this manner is cumulative. So, if a character with a 16 (+3 modifier) in her casting ability score were to learn only one new spell at level 1 (beyond the spells granted by Channeler levels and feats), she would be able to learn five new spells at level 2. For the purposes of counting the total number of spells learned by a character, 0-level spells count as half a spell.
