The Old Man of Damascus

In 1190, Saladin’s army has retaken Jerusalem, and the Christian fortress of Li Vaux Moise faces surrender after a three-month siege. Players take the roles of besieged European defenders and Muslim ambassadors as they negotiate amid betrayal, intrigue, and a desperate struggle for survival. Ancient evils and incomprehensible forces threaten both sides, potentially driving them into an uneasy alliance. The adventure includes guidance for props, costumes, and atmospheric effects, along with new arcane abilities, mystic artifacts, and 27 pre-generated characters.
