More than 220 creatures are described in the Penumbra Fantasy Bestiary, which promises to be the most impressive collection of original D20 System monsters to date. The entries that fill this weighty volume's 368 pages go beyond the atmospheric description, evocative illustration, and solid stats for which Penumbra is known, providing adventure seeds designed to inspire GMs and players alike, and extras like new gods, new spells, and new magic items.

The life of an adventurer is never an easy one. And now, instead of run-of-the-mill dungeon denizens, prepare yourself for an interdimensional scholar intent on "studying" certain great heroes, an inept wizard whose potions are unpredictable to say the least, a crystalline trap designed to catch unwary teleporters, an animated forest, living toy marionettes, giants ready for a rousing game of Dodge Rock, an intangible creature that feeds on secrets, evil cattle, and a horde of other horrors to bar your way! 
 Like the original En Route and En Route II, the En Route III collection presents short encounters that GMs can easily insert into longer adventures of their own design, or use as transitions between published modules. En Route III features innovative scenarios suitable for a wide range of locations and character levels, each designed to be played in about one hour’s time. This book is a treasure trove of adventure ideas for every fantasy d20 System campaign. 
 The encounter sourcebook includes: 
<ul>
<li>Twelve unique encounters ready to be played at a moment’s notice. </li>
<li>New magic items like the Horn of Shark Summoning and the Whisperer’s Vessel, new spells such as Hrymowulf’s Ice Sculpture, new creatures like the interplanar observer, whisperer, crystal golem, bovine rakshasa, and merrow, a new template for living puppets, and a host of fully-stated NPCs ready to capture your players’ imaginations on short notice. </li>
<li>Quick-reference appendices arranged by new d20 material, encounter location, and Encounter Level, to make finding encounter and crunchy bits fast and easy. </li>
<li>System 3.5 compatible </li>

En Route III: The Road Less Traveled (Penumbra/d20)

You and your friends are newbies at the Renaissance faire. Food, music, mock combat ... it sounded like some kind of off-beat rock concert! Problem is, you stick out like a sore thumb. In a crowd of buccaneer hats and faerie wings, you're the only ones in shorts and t-shirts. Now you and your friends have one afternoon to assemble the ultimate Renaissance costume, but you're low on cash and the only way to earn more is to perform for the crowd!  In the Ren Faire card game, your goal is to outfit your Character with Costumes whose icons fill the slots on it. To do this, you play Performance cards that award you coins for doing silly stunts, then buy the transparent Costume cards that stack above your Character card.  Ren Faire is a light-hearted card game for 2 to 4 players, ages 13 and up. Play time is about an hour. It features an innovative transparent card design, and Performance cards that are sure to keep everyone enjoying the game.

Ren Faire

A nation falls into ruin when its most treasured artifact - a temporal crystal capable of controlling time itself - is stolen from its sacred altar. Only the guilt-ridden spirit of a dead priest remains to recover the priceless crystal and restore his people to their glory. A group of travelling heroes is his only hope, but they must brave perilous waters to reach the sunken temple where the crystal now lies, radiating a strange energy that has transformed the surrounding forest into a prehistoric landscape. Can they return the crystal to its rightful time?  The Tide of Years is an adventure scenario for the D20 System, published under the Open Gaming License and D20 System Trademark License. It features: * An opening for GMs to introduce time travel into their campaigns, either as a one-time extraordinary experience or as an ongoing campaign theme * Time traps the players must think their way through, and dangerous new monsters * The new clerical Domain of Time, including new spells and a new deity
