Six years ago, I started an epic journey to convert Mystara into 5th edition to introduce new players to the greatest D&D setting officially produced. One year ago, I succeeded. But I wasn’t happy with it; there were errors. So I started to revise and correct those errors until I was satisfied with it. This version is evidence of my morbid compulsion to be absolutely flawless and now I am proud to release the Mystara Player’s Guide v2.
Inside this book, you will find everything you need to create a character specifically for playing in the Known World. Five new races, over 30 new subclasses, dozens of new spells, and information compiled from all the gazetteers and other books all in one place for the first time. There are new forms of magic, including the powerful yet dangerous Secret Crafts of Magic and the mysterious Radiance magic. Thorfinn Tait generously donated the maps, featuring art from numerous artists, including the talented Rubus and Mischa Cel Frumos.
There is information on all 16 nations of the Known World, plus the magical gnomish flying city of Serraine. You can test your skills in the fighting pits of Thyatis with a host of gladiatorial feats. Once you’ve earned your well-earned reward, flip to the back for page after page of luxury items, tools, weapons, and magic items to squander away your loot. The player’s guide combines the classic feel of Dungeons and Dragons with the updated rules.
