Heroes¸ Villains¸ and Others in Between!
This tome is a revision of the original book by the same title¸ which was first published for use with 3rd edition rules for the world's most popular roleplaying game.

Champions of Gods and TitansThe Wise & the Wicked introduces a rogue's gallery of the Scarred Lands' movers and shakers¸ characters who carry out the will of the gods or the fallen titans. These non-player characters can be friends¸ enemies¸ or simply convenient resources for the player characters in your game.
Inside¸ find villains such as King Virduk of Calastia¸ the Black Dragon¸ along with his wife¸ the beautiful (and black-hearted) Queen Geleeda; the Grand Vizier to King Virduk¸ the wicked warrior-mage Anteas; and the sinister general of Virduk's northern armies¸ Archduke Traviak the Steel-Fisted. At the other end of the spectrum¸ meet the gracious Lady Ariniel¸ the Swan Knight¸ champion of Madriel; Kimer the Shatterer¸ bearer of the Earth Sword of Scarn and tenacious foe of the titanspawn of the north; and King Thain the Just¸ the Aleking¸ ruler of Burok Torn. And many others beside!
Here you'll find a fascinating compendium of characters from the Scarred Lands¸ but easily transported into campaigns set elsewhere. In addition¸ find multiple appendices full of new magic items and artifacts¸ class archetypes and prestige classes¸ new feats¸ new creatures and races¸ and more.
