- The Rise of the Runelords Adventure Path begins in the small coastal
town of Sandpoint. In a time when rumors of rampaging dragons and massing armies
of giants have everyone on edge, the people of Sandpoint eagerly anticipate the
coming festival to commemorate the consecration of a new temple. Yet, at the
height of the ceremony, disaster strikes. A band of goblins assaults Sandpoint,
and it falls to the heroes to defend the new temple. In the days that follow, a
mysterious malady that leaves its victims monstrously deformed and dangerously
insane spreads through the town. The PCs must not only determine what's causing
this strange contagion, but also discover the sinister connection between the
plague, the goblin attacks, and the emergence of a strange rune from an empire
thought to be long dead. This installment of Pathfinder also includes extensive
details on the town of Sandpoint, rules and details on a new pantheon of
deities, several new monsters, and information on the mysterious ancient empire
of Thassilon, whose cruel and despotic rulers may not be as dead as history
would have us believe.
