- Known as the City of Monuments for its jaw-dropping skyline of ancient
ruins, magnificent towers, and stunning sculptures, Magnimar embodies the spirit
of Varisia more than any other great city. Yet with Magnimar's explosive growth
over the last century, life in the City of Monuments has become an adventure in
and of itself. With strange monsters lurking amid the ancient ruins that form
the city's foundation, roving bands of thieves, smugglers, and murderers
battling for control over the city's alleys, and the increasingly decadent
attitudes of its oldest families, Magnimar lies at a crossroads. Will it succeed
despite the obstacles thrown in its path, or is the City of Monuments doomed to
crumble under the pressure of its own runaway success?- This Pathfinder sourcebook explores the city of Magnimar (first
featured in the now classic Rise of the Runelords Adventure Path) in
great detail. Each city district has its own unique flavor and role, and comes
with pages of details on industries and institutions, leisure and markets, and
politics and entertainment. Dozens of shops, taverns, guildhalls, and more await
discovery, many of which are presented with additional adventure hooks,
memorable NPCs, and inspirational bits of lore. Examinations of regions ripe for
adventuring or sinister groups worthy of defeat, along with a robust bestiary
featuring commonly encountered NPCs or monsters closely associated with the City
of Monuments completes this book, which will be an invaluable addition to your
upcoming Shattered Star Adventure Path.
