At Stake...

Two worlds of great natural beauty locked in a struggle that threatens to destroy them both. Thraxis and Arril: blue sisters sharing an orbit, with continents, seas, and life.

A world in the midst of an Age of Majesty many believe will never end: nine diverse Empires at the peak of magical and cultural achievement. A world that has never known an Age of Darkness, where men and women push themselves daily to greater heights. It is an age of innocence and hope, when possibility knows no bounds.

Elder races untouched by the decay of time, great monuments to man's resourcefulness and his hubris. Mystic power waiting to be claimed, and a destiny still in the making. Dragons ruling an empire, a land that can forge gods.

The Threat...

The Canticle of the Morning Star: an inscrutable living Prophecy that is either a warning, or a malevolent force leading mankind towards annihilation.

The world has become a beacon to those who wish to subvert, destroy or command, and they are flocking here, bringing their alien wars in a bid that will alter the course of history and the nature of reality. Celestials, demons, devils, gods, and a sophisticated race called The Strangers compete with men, elves, dwarves and halflings to recast this idyllic planet in their own images.

Salvation...

This book, which contains:

Elder races of an ilk that have been banished from most other worlds: 3 supernatural subraces of dwarf, 5 types of fey elves. Two new core classes: the artificer, commander of elemental spirits called numina which animate devices of his own design, and the Eidolon, champion of the people and a hero to defy legend. Rules for signature and countersignature magics that allow GMs and resourceful players to forge their own places of power. Strengthen yourself while hindering your enemies. A study on the Canticle, its threats, its potential, and tips on how to keep your players guessing. A world made for heroes of every description, where the greatest deeds are yet to be performed.

 

But everything comes with a price.

 

This special PDF edition includes the Morningstar core rulebook, as well as four special freebies:

  • "Secret Wars," an article originally published in EN World Player's Journal #2, discussing secret cults with an example set in Morningstar.
  • "Piety," an introductory Morningstar adventure for character levels 1-3, originally published in EN World Player's Journal #3.
  • "Faith and Lies," an article on religion that introduces new ways of looking at faith in Morningstar, originally published in EN World Player's Journal #4.
  • A full-page rendition of the cover art to Whispers of the Prophecy, the "lost Morningstar supplement" that was never published.

 

If you like Morningstar, you might also like Complete Guide to Fey, a stand-alone book written by the same author and originally designed for use in Morningstar.

Morningstar is an amazing campaign setting on first read and one that I believe will fit in nicely as a 3.5 to 4th edition crossover campaign. The campaign high fantasy, a shining light in a world where grim and gritty seem to be the new buzz words of [...]

Scanned image
These products were created by scanning an original printed edition. Most older books are in scanned image format because original digital layout files never existed or were no longer available from the publisher.

For PDF download editions, each page has been run through Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software to attempt to decipher the printed text. The result of this OCR process is placed invisibly behind the picture of each scanned page, to allow for text searching. However, any text in a given book set on a graphical background or in handwritten fonts would most likely not be picked up by the OCR software, and is therefore not searchable. Also, a few larger books may be resampled to fit into the system, and may not have this searchable text background.

For printed books, we have performed high-resolution scans of an original hardcopy of the book. We essentially digitally re-master the book. Unfortunately, the resulting quality of these books is not as high. It's the problem of making a copy of a copy. The text is fine for reading, but illustration work starts to run dark, pixellating and/or losing shades of grey. Moiré patterns may develop in photos. We mark clearly which print titles come from scanned image books so that you can make an informed purchase decision about the quality of what you will receive.
