Explore a region of classical high fantasy with this expansive hardcover guide to six key nations of the Inner Sea. Within the Shining Kingdoms dwell noble knightly orders, proud ancient cultures, and deadly courtly intrigue. Explore Andoran, a bastion of democratic governance and freedom for all; Druma, a trade hub obsessed with material gain; the Five Kings Mountains, home to fractured kingdoms of the dwarves; Galt, a land wracked from violence and revolution; Kyonin, the illusion-cloaked homeland of the elves; and Taldor, the ossified remnants of one of the most powerful empires in the Inner Sea. Each nation features an in-depth history, gazetteer, and a look at a major city to support a grand variety of adventures. Each region also presents new character options including archetypes, equipment, magic items, spells, animal companions, and more! In addition to these new options, characters can also learn about and join important local factions. These include the virtuous Eagle Knights of Andoran, the stalwart defenders of the Shieldwrought Striders in the Five Kings Mountains, the demon hunters of Kyonin's Wylderhearts, and the Lion Blade spies of Taldor. The book also includes a bestiary of monsters inhabiting the region and a gorgeous fold-out poster map to serve as a centerpiece to any Shining Kingdoms campaign!This deluxe special edition is bound in faux leather with metallic deboss cover elements and a bound-in ribbon bookmark.
