Pathfinder deepens the Hellfire Crisis in the upcoming Hell’s Destiny adventure path, which threatens to break the Cheliax Empire.
I leave it up to you to decide whether or not Pathfinder’s summer adventure path hits a little too close to home or not. But it does seem to be all about bringing down an empire ruled by a corrupt, diabolical aristocracy as their long-oppressed citizens finally start to rise up against tyranny. In Hell’s Destiny, a high-level AP, we’ll get to find out what happens in Cheliax, and “what destiny awaits Hell itself!”
Hell’s Destiny – Coming This July
This adventure path is a continuation of the ongoing storyline explored in Hellbreakers, which follows the war between Cheliax and its neighboring enemy, Andoran. Liberty vs. devil-worshipping aristocracy who make unspeakable sacrifices in the name of holding on to power is a conflict that seems to be gripping Golarion and parts beyond these days.
Especially since the adventure path will take you to the depths of Golarion’s hells as you explore it. The set up is an intriguing one. You play as heroes who just happened to be in Cheliax’s borders when the country declares martial law and seals its borders in the face of citizen uprisings, and then you’re off to the races.
“War between the hell-sworn nation of Cheliax and its old enemy Andoran ripples across the Inner Sea. Yet Cheliax’s greatest foe might be its own long-oppressed people–including several heroes trapped there when Cheliax declares martial law and seals its borders. These heroes won’t just free themselves; they’ll unite the infernal empire’s worst enemies to defeat Cheliax on land, by sea, and even to the depths of Hell itself!
Hell’s Destiny is a 256-page hardcover Adventure Path designed for four characters, starting at 10th level and reaching 20th level by the campaign’s conclusion. This volume also includes a gazetteer of the dynamic port city of Corentyn, an exploration into Cheliax’s diabolical aristocracy, as well as useful new items, exciting character options, and a host of dangerous monsters.”
It’s nice to see high-level adventure paths still in the works. And this one takes you from 10th-20th level, making for a spectacular conclusion to the current chapter of Cheliax. One thing to keep in mind, Paizo devs are on record saying a 100% happy ending isn’t guaranteed. The stakes are high, and the future of Golarion hangs in the balance.
Look for Hell’s Destiny July 1st!
