Produktbeschreibung
The duergar are masters of treachery and deceit, engaged in an everlasting struggle with the other races of the dark realms in their quest for dominance. Drow are their fierce competitors in this domain but the duergar have surrounded themselves with such ingenuity that even the dark elves have learned to respect them as capable adversaries. Duergar retain many of the traits of the dwarven cousins even if their metabolism has changed to adapt to their environment, and entire communities have evolved into a power to be reckoned with.
Duergar are not to be taken lightly for they are cunning, intelligent and most of unpredictable.
A desire for secrecy pushes these creatures to establish their colonies far from any humanoid settlements. Players venturing in the belly of mountains or rocky grounds may encounter one of their parties at the least expected moment.
Each Slayer's Guide features a single race, in this case the duergar. You will find a colossal amount of information on duergar physiology, habitat and society, giving you a fundamental level of understanding on how this race exists and interacts with the rest of the world. Players can learn the sort of combat tactics the duergar are likely to employ against them and Games Masters are presented with guidelines on how to introduce this race into their existing campaigns. They will also benefit from material showing how to actually portray duergar to the players who are in turn given the chance to try duergar characters for themselves. Finally, a complete lair is featured to be used as either an extended encounter, the basis for a complete set of scenarios or even just an example of what duergar are capable of. |
