      Erlkazar & Folk of Intrigue

      Greetings, kind travelers! The roads south to the Lands of Intrigue are long and dusty, yet they promise greatness and glory for merchants, adventurers, and scholars. Those brave enough to venture here will encounter unique forms of power, magic, and culture found nowhere else in Faerûn. This expansion, developed from out-of-print material, offers over 150 pages of new content. The first section explores Tethyr, detailing its transformation from an elven homeland to a human nation, and its recent restoration from anarchy. Once plagued by the malevolent Empire of Shoon, Tethyr now stands as the safest realm in the Lands of Intrigue, though remnants of its dark past linger in the form of monsters and wandering spirits. The second section focuses on Amn, known as Coinland, where wealth is the lifeblood, sourced from trade along the Sword Coast and distant colonies. However, a shadow looms over those fixated on their riches. The third section introduces Erlkazar, a previously undocumented domain ready for DMs to develop for their campaigns. It also unveils the hidden powers of the South, including the Cowled Wizards, Knights of the Shield, Shadow Thieves, and the undead sorcerers of the Twisted Rune. Two poster maps illustrate the Lands of Intrigue, the Nelanther Pirate Isles, and the ruins of Shoonach, alongside over a dozen additional maps of Amn, Tethyr, and the Maztican colonies.

    • James Bond, der 007-Agent mit der Lizenz zum Töten, begeistert seit über 50 Jahren das Publikum. Exotische Schauplätze, schöne Frauen, actionreiche Handlungen und britischer Humor haben die Figur zu einem Pop-Phänomen gemacht. Besonders Sean Connery und Roger Moore prägten die frühen Jahre. Moore übernahm 1972 die anspruchsvolle Rolle des Elite-Geheimagenten von Connery und sprach fortan die berühmten Worte: „Mein Name ist Bond - James Bond.“ Sein erster Film, "Live And Let Die", wurde weltweit zum dritterfolgreichsten Bond-Film. Um Moore dem Publikum vor der Premiere vorzustellen, führte er ein Tagebuch über die 84 Drehtage. Humorvoll und intelligent berichtet er von den Dreharbeiten, die von einer Zeit geprägt waren, in der ungeniert geraucht, getrunken und Frauen hinterhergepfiffen wurde. Moore nimmt die Leser mit in die Sümpfe Louisianas, nach Jamaika, New York und die Pinewood-Studios in London. Er dokumentiert nicht nur die Filmaufnahmen, sondern erzählt auch von seinen Kollegen und dem Bond-Girl Jane Seymour als Wahrsagerin Solitaire. Doch das Leben als 007 war nicht immer einfach. Pannen, Verletzungen und andere Herausforderungen waren Teil des Alltags des aufstrebenden Stars. Diese Filmtagebücher sind ein faszinierendes Zeitdokument aus einer Ära, in der Kinobesuche noch aufregend waren, lebendig erzählt mit Anekdoten und britischem Humor.
