September 16, 2009: Designer's Note: GURPS Banestorm: AbydosGURPS Banestorm: Abydos is a fully-detailed fantasy city for GURPS Fourth Edition. While I designed Abydos for Yrth, I also created the locale so that it can be easily adapted to other settings, since Abydos is on an isolated island with a strange culture all its own. This death-aspected city is higher powered than much of the rest of the GURPS Banestorm world. So, with a few alterations to the background details, it can become a city-adventure source book for a GURPS Dungeon Fantasy campaign! Adventurers may encounter necromancer-priests, a Norse-influenced Mafia (with werebear assassins), the monastery of the vampire monks, plus a dread school and library of black magic (whose arcane "flesh scrolls" are tattooed on the bodies of living slaves). The Silent Maze -- dungeons of the dread zombie-mage Gabrielle Boneshanks -- lies beneath the city. Who is to say deeper dungeon levels can't exist beneath it? -- David Pulver
