Cityscape
Publisher: Wizards of the Coast
Introduction: Welcome to the Cityscape supplement, the latest and perhaps most unusual offering in the environment series fo the latest edition of the Dungeons & Dragons game. Unlike the previous entries in the line, each of which focuses on more traditional environments – arctic wastelands, sand-swept deserts, storm-tossed seas, and the like – the book you hold now endeavors to give the same treatment to the city, or the urban “environment.” Indeed, running extended campaigns in and around a single city can often be even more challenging than doing the same in one of the wilderness environments. In order for your city to be an effective host for the player characters, it must be as three-dimensional as they are and more. People, locations, policies, factions, laws, districts – they all have to be considered, if the DM wants to keep things smooth and engaging for the life of his game. In short, his city must truly live, and that’s quite a daunting task for any DM. It is the purpose of Cityscape to make such a task far less daunting. Whether you’ve run numerous urban campaigns or this is your first foray into a city-based story, this book contains all you need to spin a dazzling world of vibrant, colorful adventure for yourself and for the players.

Book of Vile Darkness
Publisher: Wizards of the Coast
Introduction: Book of Vile Darkness is a sourcebook of evil. It contains a large amount of new game material—all of it vile, loathsome, dark, and despicable. Although evil monsters, spells, and magic items have appeared in previous products, this compendium is a collection of the most vile, hideous, and disgusting aspects of evil that might appear in a game. Its pages contain references to acts of horrible depravity and malevolent behavior unlike anything you have probably encountered before in the DUNGEONS & DRAGONS game. Let this be a warning: Book of Vile Darkness is intended for mature audiences. The topics covered herein are not for the immature, squeamish, or faint of heart. This book deals with fictional gore, extreme violence, human sacrifice, addiction, corrupt magic, and deviant behavior. Its content is not a lighthearted take on “badness”—it is about evil, pure and simple.
Book of Exalted Deeds
Publisher: Wizards of the Coast
Introduction: There is an obvious parallel between this book and its predecessor, the Book of Vile Darkness. Both are named after minor artifacts detailed in the Dungeon Master’s Guide, artifacts that define the sharp polarity between the most abhorrent pits of evil and the highest peaks of righteousness. While the Book of Vile Darkness concerns itself with all things evil, dealing with the most reprehensible subjects ever covered in the DUNGEONS & DRAGONS game, this book tackles the opposite subject. The two books share a similar outline, and there are several other parallels in content as well, but their essential function is quite different. The Book of Vile Darkness gives Dungeon Masters the tools they need to bring the villains and monsters of their campaigns to new lows of depravity and evil. Armed with the Book of Exalted Deeds, players can now bring their characters, the heroes of the campaign, to great new heights of valor and righteousness. In contrast to thoroughly vile villains, heroes are called upon to perform truly exalted deeds.
