Amareth is designed for a city crawl. The ten related adventures revolve around urban intrigue, political maneuvering, and dungeon exploration. Non-player characters have personalities and problems. Player characters have an opportunity to take on quests, engage in social encounters, and get involved in politics. Art by David Bistrow.
After the Borstin Revolutionary War, the city-states are loosely bound, creating a weak central government that lacked power to tax, raise an army, or enforce laws effectively. Each city-state retains sovereignty, leading to conflicts over trade, currency, and borders. Political debates rage between those favoring stronger national unity and those wary of centralized power.
