Les Secrets de Marrakech est le parfait supplément pour dépayser vos investigateurs et donner une touche originale à votre campagne de jeu. Vous y découvrirez le Maroc des années vingt et trente en un tour d\’horizon géographique, culturel, politique, mais aussi Mythique. Ce supplément s\’attarde sur sa capitale politique, Rabat, sa capitale économique, Casablanca, ainsi que Marrakech, la perle du sud. L’Atlas, le Rif et le Sahara sont également détaillés ainsi que tous les aspects liés au Mythe. Lhistoire du Maroc, dont les plus anciens vestiges datent du 12e siècle avant J.-C. est mouvementée : Colonisé par les Phéniciens, parcouru par les Berbères, traversé par les Arabes, le pays est contrôlé durant l\’entre deux guerres par les Espagnols et les Français, que de nombreux autochtones considèrent comme des envahisseurs. Cest un choc culturel pour les investigateurs, confrontés aux visions, aux particularités et aux coutumes locales. Arpenter une ville peut être aussi aventureux que l\’exploration d\’une cité perdue. Deux scénarios complètent la découverte de ce pays et de ses secrets enfouis.

The clash of steel. The scent of blood. The heat of fire from heaven. The cries of the dying and of the dead.

Brave warriors and devotees to the gods follow the paths their faiths have put before them, and when religious fervor meets skill of arms and magic, kings will fall, armies will collide, and men and women will perish for their beliefs.

Blood and Devotion contains nine short stories and novellas of epic fantasy, accompanied by art by Nicole Cardiff.
