FOR4 - Code of the Harpers
From the storm-lashed rocks west of fabled Evermeet to the Plains of Purple Dust, all the folk of Faerun have heard of the Harpers. Noble fools, some call them. Crazy, misguided meddlers, others say. Still others disagree. "The one true hope of the Realms," said one princess.
"A shining light in the darkness of our lives," agreed a sage. "Pray that it never goes out."
Just who are these mysterious, wandering folk who wear silver harp pins and walk softly in the most dangerous shadows of the Realms? This book reveals the secrets, rules, and magic of the Harpers, including
Harper runes
Harper magic
The long, colourful history of the Harpers
Their evil foes
Their special allies
The fabled High Heralds
What Harpers do
Harper haunts: their strongholds, and the Harpers who (in some cases literally) haunt them!
Joining the Harpers, and how to become a True Harper or a Master Harper?
...and more, from favourite Harper ballads to detailed Harper NPCs. This is a sourcebook you'll turn to again and again. It lays bare the warring power groups who work behind the scenes in Faerun; no Forgotten Realms campaign is complete without it!
