Instrument of Destiny (d20)
Every three years¸ the desert village of Hariq commemorates Tahlessa bint Mizrah¸ its most famous daughter¸ with a contest that draws great musicians from far and wide¸ vying for the honor of playing Tahlessa's harp. But not everyone attending this year is planning to play fair. A mission to preserve the honor and treasure of Hariq leads the adventurers into the treacherous desert¸ right to the mummified heart of the Caliphate's dark past¸ when infidels ruled the land and served dark gods whose thirst for blood matched the parched desert's thirst for water. This adventure features: ° The Caliphate of Makhtaba¸ an Arabian/Egyptian-flavored adventure setting¸ which the GM can easily replace with similar lands in his own campaign world (or those in various published campaign worlds). ° A mixture of role-playing in the Festival of Tahlessa¸ wilderness explorations¸ and a deadly dungeon. ° New additions to the D20 System¸ including the ancient secrets of hieroglyphic magic.
