In the center of the world is a land hammered by the weather, tortured by insane gods, plagued by grotesque monsters and haunted by magic. Only the bravest survive in the Mad Lands. Yet they do survive . . . hearty hunters, fishermen and warriors with the courage to face a world in constant turmoil. Clever and self-reliant, they refuse to yield to the land's ever-present threats – chaotic gods, brutal monsters and immortal sorcerers. This book has everything that the GURPS GM needs to run a campaign in the dark-fantasy world of the Mad Lands, including... * A full-color, fold-out map of the Mad Lands and surrounding areas. * Descriptions of neighboring lands, including the bizarre Savarginia, the hostile Togeth and the mysterious Whiteness. * A campaign where party members have known each other from birth. Roleplaying and personality development are important. Improve your status through brave deeds, but don't think of back-stabbing . . . your comrades are all that stand between you and the pits of hell. * Gods! The chaotic deities who warp the very land and change all they touch. No one worships these mad powers. No one sane, that is . . . * Monsters! The vicious Skinless, the berzerk Headless, the sinister Heightless and many more – once human, they now prey on humanity. * The Soulless – a race of immortal sorcerers so bored with their endless lives that they will pursue any eccentric activity. And humans make such amusing playthings . . . * Rules for incorporating the fickle force of magic into the campaign. In the Mad Lands, magic is unpredictable . . . a thing to be feared. Here is a land of danger and death, monsters and magic. Adventures here aren't loot-and-pillage – they're battles for mankind's very survival in a world of chaos. Pit your raw courage against foes beyond imagination. Visit the Mad Lands if you dare . . .
