HeroQuest: Dragon Pass - Land of Thunder (Issaries)
 On Order
A Gazetteer of Kerofinela
Welcome to Dragon Pass! In this rugged land of dragons, giants, and hill barbarians, cosmic war smolders. Generations of heroes have lived and died amid the rolling hills, living mountains, and speaking forests. City walls built to shelter the innocent now protect plundering invaders, who fear the hostile hills and savage wilderness. Enemy priests and the servants of nature arm for war. Native clans chant songs of revenge and prepare to destroy the Imperial legions and their foreign gods. Woods, forests, and sacred groves prepare; cities, towns, and humble villages build up their defenses; rivers, creeks, and streams make ready, for it is the End of the World.
Every Landmark Is a Story
The nearly 400 entries in Dragon pass describe local features of nature, history, and legend, from Alda-chur to the Zoo. Here are places where prehistoric battles were fought and peace was made; where gods came to earth, and still visit; where spirits talked to people, and still speak.
Every Monument Is a Myth
The large map that accompanies this book is the most detailed and accurate representation ever made of Dragon Pass, from the corrupt Upland Marsh to the dizzying heights of Kero Fin, Mother of Mountains. Altars, shrines, and sacred hilltops are gateways to other worlds; valleys and hills hide terrible secrets beyond the ken of man; the graves of heroes are sacred and haunted, and their ghosts howl for war. Ancient temples have been closed or destroyed, their foundations covered with fanes to foreign deities. The gods themselves shout for justice.
Every Place Is a Discovery
This book contains everything you need to know about Dragon Pass, from the cornfields of Tarsh to the corkscrew heights of Stormwalk Mountain. Details from previous publications are collected here, updated and expanded. Dozens of illustrations, eleven maps, and a brilliant poster illuminate and explore this ancient and wondrous land, where the forces of the Red Moon seek to bring stagnant order to the freedom-loving Heortlings.
Written by Greg Stafford and friends.
