Page 7: Under Lure of the Sea of Dreams: "Now, with the dragons long gone, its effect is becoming increasingly noticeable." What does the "ITS" refer to? I think a better phrasing would be: Now, with the dragons long gone, the enchantments are noticeably weakening. or something to that effect.

Page 10: I'm pretty sure this is not the intention: "Attacks with long weapons against targets within one square are made with a bane and require a successful AWARENESS roll." I'm thinking the idea is that attacks made on targets MORE than one square away made with long weapons.

Page 37:
"✦ Grayfurs: There are always as many Grayfurs in the lounge as there are player characters – some mingling discreetly among the guests, others serving drinks and
food. A successful AWARENESS roll reveals the presence of D3 Grayfurs."

Why a random number? Just make it "reveals the presence of the Grayfurs"

Page 67: CONSTADINE CROOKHORN Move should be 12 based on his Agility bonus.

Page 68: MORTILARA & FEROXIA ROSTRUM Move should be 12 based on their Agility bonus.

Page 80: Harmony of Roses: Missing "S": "(...)based skill rolls for D10 round."

Page 84, 1st column, paragraph "judgement hill": The place is called "Gallows Hill" further down in the paragraph.

Page 30, description of Area #6: Should be "cage" suspended from ceiling, not "cave". (Took me a while to figure out what a cave suspended from a ceiling was...)

Page 85:

• "With a hard slap to their rumps, the bulls charge forward, taking a large chunk of the facade with them."

- You usually spell it "façade" throughout the book, not "facade".


Page 88:

• "1. FACADE"

- You usually spell it "façade" throughout the book, not "facade"

• "Facade and Wall:"

- See previous comment.

• "...(D6 bludgeoning damage; can be EVADED)."

- The text formatting of EVADED is wrong on the last D of the word.

• "...as the vines grab hold of the climber (can be EVADED)."

- Same problem with the text formatting of the last D in EVADED.

• "EAST, SOUTH, WEST: Stone wall bordering the garden (#4)."

- I think the cardinal directions NORTH and WEST make more sense here than EAST, SOUTH, WEST.



Page 91:

• "The Wall: See the facade (#1) for rules regarding the vines."

- See the spelling of facade.

• "SOUTH: Doors to the entrance hall (#2)."

- I think EAST makes more sense than SOUTH here.

• "SOUTHEAST: Double doors to the cabinet of curiosities (#3)."

- Perhaps SOUTH is better than SOUTHEAST here?

• "Horticulus has been at Akelius’s side since they were both young animists eager to uncover the mysteries of nature."

- Usually you write "Akelius’" and not "Akelius’s".



Page 92:

• "Stats as per page 93 of the Rulebook."

- The stats for a minotaur is on page 94, not 93.

Page 146:

• "A formidable physical specimen, he is equally capable of striking fear into his foes with his roar and great-sword as with his sorcery."

• "Weapons: Longsword (skill level 16, damage 2D8)"

• "Gear: The magic longsword U’Baal (ENCHANT WEAPON power level 3, MAGIC SEAL, PERMANENCE, 30 WP)"

- The text says that Sethius uses a greatsword, yet the weapons and gear says that he uses a longsword.

Page 93:

• "SOUTHWEST: Door to the Beast Den (#8)."

- I think SOUTH is more accurate than SOUTHWEST.

• "NORTHEAST: Door to the backstage (#7) of the Theater of Inevitable Fates."

- I think NORTH is more accurate than NORTHEAST.

Page 96:

• "...but so far, he has not dared tell Adriana."

- I think "dared to tell Adriana" sounds better.

• "Battle of the Voices!"

- Should it be "Battle of the Voices!" or "Battle of the Voices:" ?

Page 97: 1. FAÇADE

• "SOUTH: Locked door leading backstage (#7)."

• "NORTH: Grand doors to the foyer (#2). Locked when there is no show going on."

• "NORTH: Hatch to the ticket office (#3) behind an iron grate. Can be picked using SLEIGHT OF HAND."

- I find it slightly confusing that the northernmost door on the map is said to be positioned SOUTH, while the two southernmost doors are described as being positioned NORTH.

Page 97:

• THE GUILD OF LUTES

- All names in the text box except Juliona are written in bold text.

• "There are three types of tokens: a red blood drop (for the arena and the lower tier), a blue theater mask (for the middle tier), an orange star (for the upper tier)."

- I think it sounds better if you write "...and an orange star..."

The artwork shows strange-looking birdy-dragony gulls nearly everywhere, but they don't get stats or even any information in the text.
To me, this is a major oversight to have a life-form that has a huge visual impact on the city without any kind of description or mention in the text.

Page 99:

• "7. BACKSTAGE AREA"

- The compass direction descriptions for the backstage area is missing many of the other areas. #7 is connected to rooms #10A, #10B, #9, #8, #6, #5, and #13. Yet this is not specified in the description for the backstage area.

• "10A-B. PROP ROOMS

- The doors leading to #7 are described to be positioned in the southwest, but it looks like they are more to the south.

Page 101:

• "All EVADE rolls are made with a bane, except for halflings."

- Wouldn't also mallards be tiny enough to not suffer a bane in this confined space?

Page 104:

• "Adriana arrived in Arkand alongside Avador Northing and considers herself one of the founders of the city’s Third Age, which she believes makes her the centerpiece of Arkand’s high society, second only to Elrita Blood-Eye."

- Don't you mean the Fourth Age?

Page 5:

• "This is followed by five chapters describing the city’s districts: the Harbor – the tar-scented gateway to the Sea of Dreams, the Dung – the bustling mean streets of Arkand, the Market – a center of commerce and entertainment, the mysterious Underworld – where much of Arkand’s intriguing history is hidden, and Dragonrock – home to the city’s rich and powerful."

- The chapters of the book follow a slightly different order: THE HARBOR - THE DUNG - THE MARKET - DRAGONROCK - THE UNDERWORLD.

On page 144 the "The High Council of Arkand" text block's heading says Concil instead of Council.

On page 88, 1. FACADE:
Facade and Wall: The wall is covered by living vines.
Any attempt to climb up the wall is quickly interrupted
as the vines grab hold of the climber (can be EVADED).
Breaking free requires an opposed STR roll with a bane.
Others can help.
If it's an opposed roll, what do the vines try to roll under, I don't see a STR rate for them?
