Parsantium: City at the Crossroads
Parsantium: City at the Crossroads is a detailed city sourcebook for the Pathfinder Roleplaying Game and all editions of the world's bestselling fantasy RPGs.
Parsantium is a melting pot, a cosmopolitan city where trade routes meet and where great cultures collide. Inspired by Byzantium with its rich Greco-Roman heritage, Parsantium incorporates characters, monsters and magic from the Tales of the Arabian Nights, ancient India, and the Far East alongside more traditional European fantasy elements.
There are evil cults and exotic gods, unscrupulous politicians and nobles, scheming rakshasas and serpentfolk, ancient dungeons beneath the city streets, powerful criminal gangs, gladiators and chariot racing. Parsantium contains enough adventure hooks, patrons and adversaries to keep your player characters busy throughout their careers without having to venture outside the city walls.
Although compatible with the Pathfinder Roleplaying Game, Parsantium: City at the Crossroads contains minimal game stats, making it easy to use with whatever edition you are playing.
Easily incorporated into your own campaign world or published fantasy setting, this 172 page sourcebook features:
- 2,000 years of history
- 17 character backgrounds for new PCs
- Over 70 detailed city locations
- Over 200 NPC descriptions
- 50 power groups, guilds and noble families
- 35 gods
