Ravens Bluff -- The City of Ravens
For the first time, Jack Ravenwild's designs exceed his talents. His ambitous
plunge into the middle of a plot to destroy the city, a noble quest to find a
lost hoard, and a conspiracy to seize the reins of power through the nobility's
Game of Masks. Worse yet, Jack must choose between a life of freedom and saving
the city he doesn't even know he loves.
Ravens Bluff, the site of City of Ravens, is a city created by fans and members
of the RPGA (Roleplaying Gamers Association) to use in their club's Forgotten
Realms roleplaying games. Many of the characters and locals in Ravens Bluff were
created by over 35,000 members of the RPGA. This is the first novel to take
place in and detail the city of Ravens Bluff.
For the first time in his perilous life, a young man's designs exceed his
talents. His ambitions plunge him into the middle of a plot to destroy the city,
a noble quest to find a lost hoard, and a conspiracy to seize the reins of power
through the nobility's Game of Masks.
Eversult -- Site of Temple Hill
Among the dark streets of the city move thieves and cutthroats. And they don't
like independent operators like Lhasha Moonsilver. But when she hires a former
fighter, now the town drunk, as a bodyguard, she gets more than she bargained
for. Together they'll have to battle the thieves' guild, the Cult of the Dragon,
and other, darker foes. And a fallen man will have to remember the proud warrior
he once was.
Alaghôn -- The Jewel of Turmish
Preserving the balance of nature is a way of life for Haarn Brightoak, no matter
what the cost, but even his dedication to the customs of the druid is put to the
test when a long-dead evil returns to the world of the living. As this vile
creature gathers its undead army, Haarn must decide if he will compromise his
way of life to defend the city that has never welcomed him.
The third title in the swashbuckling Cities series, this novel explores the
Vilhon Reach, an area of the Forgotten Realms world that previously had little
information written about it.
In the streets of Waterdeep, conspiracies run like water through the gutters,
bubbling beneath the seeming calm of the city's life. As a band of young,
foppish lords discovers there is a dark side to the city they all love, a
sinister mage and his son seek to create perverted creatures to further their
twisted ends.
And across it sprawls the great city itself: brawling, drinking, laughing,
living life to the fullest.
Even in the face of death.
This novel is set in the most important city of the Forgotten Realms setting:
Waterdeep, city of intrigue and secrets. Its authors are considered to be among
the most authoritative figures writing in the Forgotten Realms setting. This
novel is their first collaboration.
