Description:

The Yuchi town of Chisca, nestled in a mountain vale deep in Cherokee territory, has been recently attacked by haints issuing from nearby caves.

Something has stirred these monstrous humanoids, but the cause is in dispute. Some say that treasure hunters, searching in vain for a golden relic of a Uropan priest, have inadvertently roused the haints, who may be the ruined remnants of a century-old expeditionary force of mercenaries led by an notorious plunderer.

Others say that the mercenary captain's spirit has awoken after a century-long sleep, and is sending forth his followers to exact revenge upon the town that resisted his brutal search for gold and led to the destruction of his company....



The Caves of Chisca is a FREE full-length introductory adventure for the Northern Crown campaign setting from Atlas Games. It is intended for four 1st-2nd level PCs.

Adamant Entertainment will be producing continuing support for the setting, and this free 44-page adventure, written by Northern Crown creator Doug Anderson, serves as an introduction to the setting and the support line. The PDF comes in two versions: The full lay-out, with all graphics, and a graphics-light version for printing.

This adventure is designed to serve as an introduction to the game, and does this well with plenty of background material woven into it so that players new to the setting will find that they soon know quite a lot about their new alternate reality, without [...]

This is a good adventure of moderate length. My group required three sessions to finish it, but they managed to experience almost all of the detail. It's a twist on the classic dungeon crawl, which is actually very interesting when adapted to the Northe [...]

Scanned image
These products were created by scanning an original printed edition. Most older books are in scanned image format because original digital layout files never existed or were no longer available from the publisher.

For PDF download editions, each page has been run through Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software to attempt to decipher the printed text. The result of this OCR process is placed invisibly behind the picture of each scanned page, to allow for text searching. However, any text in a given book set on a graphical background or in handwritten fonts would most likely not be picked up by the OCR software, and is therefore not searchable. Also, a few larger books may be resampled to fit into the system, and may not have this searchable text background.

For printed books, we have performed high-resolution scans of an original hardcopy of the book. We essentially digitally re-master the book. Unfortunately, the resulting quality of these books is not as high. It's the problem of making a copy of a copy. The text is fine for reading, but illustration work starts to run dark, pixellating and/or losing shades of grey. Moiré patterns may develop in photos. We mark clearly which print titles come from scanned image books so that you can make an informed purchase decision about the quality of what you will receive.
Original electronic format
These ebooks were created from the original electronic layout files, and therefore are fully text searchable. Also, their file size tends to be smaller than scanned image books. Most newer books are in the original electronic format. Both download and print editions of such books should be high quality.
