destroy Sharn itself. A D&D EBERRON adventure for 4th-level characters.

ISTIVIN: CITY
OF SHADOWS
by Greg A. Vaughn
& Erik Mona
At the heart of a tragic
western kingdom is starcrossed Istivin, a city
haunted by demonic
pacts, devious dark
elves, and worse. A complete urban dark fantasy mini-setting for all
D&D campaigns.
The Gods of Istivin
In addition to honoring the deities presented in the Player’s Handbook,
the diverse folk of Istivin worship several gods from the extended GREYHAWK pantheon. The most important of these gods are summarized
below, with information on the deity’s alignment, domains, favored
weapon, and holy symbol listed in brackets. More information about
these entities can be found in the LIVING GREYHAWK Gazetteer.
Gazetteer.
Allitur: From the oldest days, the clergy of Allitur has played an
important role in Sterish society, outlining for the nation’s rulers a
rigid doctrine based upon ethics and propriety. Despite its religious
origins, the doctrine is essentially secular, being a description of how to
advance society. Most of Sterich’s oldest and most powerful nobles pay
lip service to Allitur, and a litany of dull passages and rituals is all but
required at most significant civic functions. Few in Istivin attend regular
services to Allitur, but most acknowledge the wisdom of his teachings.
[LG; Good, Knowledge, Law; shortspear; a pair of clasped hands]
Kelanen (The Prince of Swords): The master swordsmen who comprise
Kelanen’s cult espouse a doctrine of cosmic balance between the Four
Dooms (good, evil, chaos, and law), and have at times sided with any of
these alignments to push the balance of power back toward the middle. Far
more fighters and warriors than clerics honor Kelanen, making his clergy
small and mysterious. It is a violation of the faith’s code of conduct to use
any sort of weapon other than a sword or crossbow. [N; Travel, War; any
martial sword; nine swords in a star shape, points outward]
Mayaheine (The Shield Maiden): A recently ascended paladin of
Pelor, the demigoddess Mayaheine represents protection, justice,
and valor. Her righteous clerics travel on great pilgrimages to
defend the weak and innocent, stand up for the disenfranchised,
and generally make a nuisance of themselves. The loosely affiliated,
youthful religion serves as a sort of strong arm of the church of
Pelor. It is particularly accepting of women. [LG; Good, Law, Protection, War; bastard sword, mace, longbow; a shield with a bastard
sword, sunburst, two golden spheres, and two victory runes]
Ulaa (The Stonewife): An ancient goddess of unknown origins,
Ulaa holds earth elementals in thrall with her dominion over hills,
mountains, and gemstones. Her clerics protect mountains from
those who would enter for the sake of greed or evil, and instruct
miners and quarrymen with timelost rituals they claim have been
handed down from a civilization extinct more than 10,000 years.
[LG; Earth, Good, Law; warhammer; mountain with ruby heart]
Zilchus (The Great Guildmaster): Honored by merchants and
the wealthy, Zilchus is the dealmaker of the gods, the master of
business, money, and prestige. His rigorous doctrine espouses
personal improvement through the accumulation of wealth and
political influence, and hence his religion enjoys great (if casual)
attention in a city choked with nobles real and presumed. [LN;
Knowledge, Law, Trickery; dagger; hands clutching a bag of gold]

Fireseek 18th or 20th, 590 CY: It is with me always now. The Malgoth wont
let me die. The knife slipped from nerveless hands as I laid it upon my wrist.
I fear there is no hope for me. Booming echoes silence the light. Shadow touches
shadow and passes through. Ilkharis is my only hope. He must be found. Surely he
can break the bond that he forged. I will send my finest knights to locate him.
Wealsun? 590: Dear Res... she doesnt understand. I am becoming more now.
One with the Dark Master is a prize, not a punishment. And she thinks me
unhinged. I shouldnt have killed the maid. They have given me the finest
cell for "my protection." Sparrows and hawks fall to the fox. I shall demand
a throne. A seat befitting my status.

I must stop writing in it,
hide it, and hope that what
I become never finds it. I
can feel it blooming. These
shall be my last words as a
man. Darling Res, the ring
you brought me shall be my
salvation. I can use it to
escape this body with these
new gifts, to hide in the
body of one of the guards,
and then if I can only maintain myself I can use him
to warn you. I dont know
if I can hold on once I imbue
the magic jar, but to sleep
here with the dreams but
one more night is worse. If I
can just get outside the city
perhaps I can escape it. If
not, perhaps the blade of
a watchmans sword can
provide release of another
sort. Forgive me Res, I
should have told you.
Five 91!!!: The Dark Master tells many secrets. He whispers them long into
the night. I dont think the guards like my songs.
Fall, 591: The Malgoth is growing. Sometimes I can hear it in the stones. The
moments when I can think without that voice in my ear are fewer and far
between. Res and Verbane came. I ordered them to send my knights after the
frost giant. They think that part of my ravings, too. I dont blame them.

592-593?: Days pass when I dont even realize I am me. I cant hold it off forever.
