The City of Brass

This adventure details the City of Brass, the fabled city of Arabic myth described in the 1,001 Nights. The player characters must visit the city to retrieve an item, and several options are provide to suggest an appropriate quest for your group. A journey into the heart of the Egyptian Sahara leads to a mystic gate, a portal to an isolated region of the Magic Realm and the City of Brass. The journey to the city is only the beginning; the real challenge lies in escaping the city alive. Far from being abandoned, as the misleading legends suggest, the City of Brass is teeming with 'afrit and jinn, magic creatures living in a complex society of interactions and intrigues. To accomplish their goals, the characters must navigate the Machiavellian schemes of the city's inhabitants. Their actions can etch them a place in the folklore of coming ages, or dig them a grave that no mourner will find.

The City of Brass is extremely dangerous. The journey alone can easily destroy
