August
28, 2003 (Renton, Wash.) — Today Malhavoc Press follows
up the publication of Monte
Cook's Arcana Unearthed with The
Diamond Throne, a new d20 System setting book
that provides fundamental gameplay support for the new
classes, races, and rules of the popular variant player's
handbook.
In
the noble, giant-ruled lands of The Diamond Throne,
explore the reaches of the Floating Forest. Discover the
incomparable beauty of the magical Crystal Fields. Learn
the secret of the God-King of the verrik people. But beware
the military might of the chorrim and the fiendish powers
of the shadow trolls. This book offers not only a gazetteer
of information about this new realm, it also provides
eight new prestige classes, 12 new monsters, and dozens
of magic items.
The
Diamond Throne comes as a 96-page illustrated PDF
file with a streamlined page design to minimize file size
for faster downloading and conserve ink for quicker printing.
The book features the black-and-white artwork of Ed Bourelle,
Eric Lofgren, Jennifer Meyer, and Kieran Yanner and a
cover illustration from Sam Wood. This electronic edition,
regularly priced at $11, is available now from online
retailers for the sale price of only $9. The book is suitable
for characters of all levels in fantasy campaigns using
the Arcana Unearthed rules or the standard d20
System. Fans can sample the book's
art, table of contents,
and other previews free at this
website.
