The Lost Shrine of Kasar-Khan is an adventure published by Integrated Games in 1985 for fantasy role-playing games.

The Lost Shrine of Kasar-Khan is a role-playing scenario and gamemaster's aid written for any role-playing game system — conversion rules for Dungeons & Dragons, Advanced Dungeons & Dragons, and RuneQuest are included. The setting is an ancient dwarven shrine that is guarded by a demon. The players must overcome the demon, other creatures, and a war party that is also exploring the dungeon.[1]

Publication history

Between 1984 and 1986, Simon Forrest and Basil Barrett wrote a series of four fantasy role-playing adventures that were published by Integrated Games as The Complete Dungeon Master Series. The second adventure, published in 1985, was The Lost Shrine of Kasar-Khan, written by Forrest and Barrett, with interior art by Jon Baker, Selina Goodman, and Brendan Hickling, cartography by Justin Gregory and Allen Hickling, and cover art by Jez Goodwin. It was published by Integrated Games in 1985 as a boxed set containing

  • a 16-page booklet with a complete adventure
  • the book's cardstock cover also doubled as a gamemaster's screen
  • six sheets of color cardstock floor plans
  • four sheets of NPC statistics
  • four sheets of player handouts[1]

This scenario is the sequel to the adventure The Halls of the Dwarven Kings and is the precursor to the adventures The Watchers of the Sacred Flame and The Feathered Priests. Integrated Games went out of business before a planned fifth adventure, Deep Water, Shallow Graves, was published.

In 1992, Flame Publications, an imprint of Games Workshop, bought the rights to The Complete Dungeon Master Series, and Simon Forrest, Brad Freeman and Graeme Davis revised all four adventures to conform to the Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay rules, releasing them as the Doomstone Campaign Book Series. The Lost Shrine of Kasar-Khan was retitled Blood in Darkness.[1]
