Four Against Darkness.
And what in darkness dwells.
Heart of the Lizard is a novella set in the world of Four against Darkness.
Follow Haq, Kil, Gress and Varda in the abandoned remains of the ancient Temple of Zur, the god of death, on the trail of a fabled, mystical treasure.
ÒWhat sort of treasure are we talking about?Ó Gress asked, cautiously.
ÒAn emerald the size of a fistÑÓ Haq said.
ÒCursed,Ó Kil said.
ÒÑinside an old temple filled with richesÑÓ
ÒHaunted,Ó the elf interjected.
ÒÑone day out of this townÑÓ
ÒA cesspool,Ó the sorceress added.
ÒÑsouth, in the hills.Ó
ÒWhere the goblins dwell.Ó
A big grin split Gress' bruised features. ÒThis is getting better and better,Ó he said. ÒWhen do we start?Ó
A gaming appendix gives full descriptions and stats for new monsters, treasures, and the Fire Mage, a new magic-using character class, for use with the Four Against Darkness solo game.
