Instrument of Destiny is an adventure for 6-8 level characters and is slated for a July release. Every three years, the desert village of Hariq commemorates Tahlessa bint Mizrah, its most famous daughter, with a contest that draws great musicians from far and wide, vying for the honor of playing Tahlessa's harp. But not everyone attending this year is planning to play fair. A mission to preserve the honor and treasure of Hariq leads the adventurers into the treacherous desert, right to the mummified heart of the Caliphate's dark past, when infidels ruled the land and served dark gods whose thirst for blood matched the parched desert's thirst for water. This adventure features: The Caliphate of Makhtaba, an Arabian/Egyptian-flavored adventure setting, which the GM can easily replace with similar lands in his own campaign world (or those in various published campaign worlds. A mixture of role-playing in the Festival of Tahlessa, wilderness explorations, and a deadly dungeon. New additions to the D20 System, including the ancient secrets of hieroglyphic magic.
