The Spirit Stones
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Spirit Stones is an adventure published by FASA in 1982 for Chaosium's fantasy role-playing game Thieves' World, itself based on the popular series of Thieves' World shared world fantasy fiction books created by Robert Lynn Asprin in 1978.
The player characters, all members of the gypsy-like S'Danzo, have been chosen to escort an elderly man carrying three "spirit stones" to the city of Sanctuary and beyond. On the way to Sanctuary, the old man is killed by a man with a scarred face, and the stones stolen. Now the players must enter Sanctuary on a quest to recover the Stones, which have changed hands several times already, and then complete the old man's mission.[1]
The book opens with a description of S'Danzo society, as well as a short explanation of the role-playing rules used in the Thieves' World role-playing game.
