Note that this is a later edition. It may be distinguished from the earlier edition by the gold jewelery, tattoos and crowned helmet of the barbarian on the cover. The earlier edition does not have this helmet; the barbarian appears to be bare-headed.

It is a revised edition:


"This book was originally released in 2010. It was one of the first things that D101 Games released. It soon became clear that it was a bit rough around the edges. Its release sparked a lot of discussion about how to run it as a straight Swords and Sorcery adventure, since that genre while closely linked to D100 is typically more violent and less magic rich than OpenQuest is designed to handle. Finally I was less than happy with the meta-plot that I originally included with book.

So the release of OpenQuest 2 gave me an opportunity to make another editing and proo ng pass (with the help of Dominic Mooney), drop the meta-plot chapter, make numerous xes and include two new appendices (B&C) which give Games Master and Player advice respectively.

The original book is intact, but this version is more what I want the Savage North to be."
