DESCRIPTION:
"Other then the art A+" according to Christopher S. Barnhart. As far as a source for inspiration for RPG settings and play styles go, Newhon has always been my baby. Back when my friend Calen has the 1st Edition AD&D books, it was the chapter on Newhon Myths in the Deities and Demigods that sparked my main interest. Boy how I loved the feel and flavor of that dark and murky world. Salt Marshes, City of Thieves, Rat Worshippers, SHARK WORSHIPPERS, undead gods, seven eyed wizards and so forth gave the setting such a thrilling sense of something different then the Elf, Dwarf, Halfling, Human char. "Sincere Effort" according to Heroquester. Watch out for spoilers, if you've yet to complete Fritz Leiber's books on Fafhard & the Grey Mouser. Sincere effort to evoke Lankhmar, though not much new in the way of system or evocation of the mood of the place, favored in the imaginations of many
Re-released as a rules and setting book for the new open source Runequest system, this 160 page, full color book brings to life the rich city of Lankmar for players and games masters. The use of the Runequest rules system allows for a faithful recreation of the world Newhon, the setting for the heroes Fafhrd and The Gray Mouser who came to life in the novels by Fritz Lieber.
