The Slayer's Guide to Harpies (D&D 3.0 d20 2002 Mongoose Publishing MGP0017)

Description

Mongoose Publishing d20 System The Slayer's Guide to Harpies Scourges of the Storm Harpies are cruel and vicious monsters that delight in the suffering of others. They also elevate selfishness and narcissism to new heights in their constant drive to establish their superiority over ‘lesser’ species, such as humans, dwarves and elves. Yet many Games Masters probably consider harpies no better than animals, unthinking brutes that can be used to challenge low to mid-level adventurers once creatures such as orcs and hobgoblins cease to pose a threat to them. Unfortunately, this fails to take into account the unique strengths and abilities of the harpy which, when used properly, allow them to be used as opponents for even high-level characters. The Slayer’s Guide to Harpies is designed to provide the Games Master with ideas on how to do just that. Inside You Will Find: Harpy Physiology: The mere sight of these winged monstrosities is enough to cause equal measures of terror and nausea among those not experienced in dealing with them. Harpy Sub-species: Detailing the Aiello, Celaeno, Nicothoe, Ocypete and the Podarge. Habitat: Harpies are predators and, as such, prefer to make their homes in areas where there is a ready source of food. Harpy Society: Harpies who live together in the same area do so because they must, not because they seek out the companionship of others of their kind. Methods of Warfare: Harpies show an instinctual grasp of small unit tactics. Roleplaying Harpies: A fully detailed chapter on running harpies in your games. Scenario Hooks and Ideas: Some great ideas on how players can meet these terrible creatures. The Caves of Thunder: A complete lair which can be placed into any campaign with very little effort.

About Us
Hello fellow role playing enthusiast. I have been playing Dungeon's and Dragon's since 1976 and have played each version extensively. Since I first read Andre Norton's "Quag Keep", I have been scouting ahead in dungeon crawls, hurling fireballs, casting illusions, saving damsel's in distress, praying to the gods for aide and seeking a truly lawful and ordered society. As a dungeon master I am true to Gary Gygax's original teachings and have DM'd in Greyhawk, Forgotten Realms, Dark Sun and a few other settings of my own creation. I am a recovering addict of Dark Ages of Camelot and have played Witcher, Baldur's Gate, Neverwinter's Night, Torment, Icewind Dale, Morrowind and Oblivion. I have dabbled in Magic the Gathering, Warhammer, Bloodbowl, Munchkin, Paranoia and am an avid board gamer as well.
I will do my best to keep you satisfied so
you will enjoy purchasing items from me now and in the future.
