Journeys in the countryside and wilderness: scout, explore, traverse landscapes dark or beautiful, discover ruins, or find forgotten landmarks. Camping and fellowship: Set camp, train, craft items and brew potions, and build relationships with your fellow travelers. Dangerous encounters: Face unscrupulous travelers and strange creatures, and learn about their sorcerous ways and weaknesses. Ancient lore, crafty factions: Discover the great world beyond, the powers that be, and the dark past that started it all. More than just battles: Overcome challenges
through battle, magic, wits, physical feats, charm, cunning - or love,
gossip, or great cooking - anything is possible. Carve your fate: Make hard choices that will
shape you. Will you become the hero to save the realm, or just a
traveler passing by? The choice is yours.
Inspired by 19th century expeditions, deep sea diving and pulp archaeology, Coriolis: The Great Dark
is a roleplaying game about exploration and intrigue. Join dangerous
expeditions, navigate the Byzantine schemes of Ship City, and hunt for
the keys that unlock the mystery of this Lost Horizon.
This book features:
Rules for creating your crew of Explorers, with upgrades such as
talents, vehicles, and crew maneuvers to enhance campaign play. Rules for delving into the unknown, traveling on Greatships
through the dangerous Slipstream, and trekking across wild planets. A detailed gazetteer of the Lost Horizon, the eleven systems of
the Charted Sphere and the asteroid-metropolis of Ship City. The Black Ziggurat , an introductory adventure that will take you deep into an ancient ruin on a distant moon. Tools and rules for solo play, making it possible to explore the Lost Horizon all by yourself

Roll20 | Jumpgate Updates:
Added the new right click context menu options, "Bring Party Here" and "Define Party." These let you select a group of tokens to define
their characters as Party members, and the "Bring Party Here" button
will bring all tokens for characters that are party members onto the
current page. Resolved an issue where copied & pasted drawings would not persist or be invisible upon reloading the VTT Resolved an issue where the Mod Script Sandbox caused issues with
incorrectly remapped Image URLs, causing duplicate turn tracker entries
for scripts like CombatMaster, and other odd behavior. The Page Settings Menu now decrements below 1 grid cell size in
increments of 0.25 instead of 0.2, to match the prior menu's behavior Released a powerup for the Image Texture Resolution dropdown. Switching Settings > Graphics > Image Texture Resolution to medium or low should now help more users load pages with very high quantities of
tokens, drawings, and/or text, as well as very high quality textures. If you've ever come up against an error that says "WebGL Context Lost,"
this might help.
Roll20 | D&D 2024 Character Sheet & Builder Updates:
Added functionality for Optional Species Features (from books like Sword Coast Adventurer's Guide) in the Builder's Species slide. Fixed a bug where NPC legendary actions would sometimes default to 0 instead of 3. In the manage items modal, you now have the ability to switch
between incremental editing and number input editing for the quantity of items. Updated NPC Inline Editing to allow for empty lists of traits and actions. Users of the Loot Manager (Shops and Treasure sheets) can now
increase item quantity up to 1,000,000 each from the previous maximum of 99. When adding a new action or trait in NPC stat block view, the
sheet will auto-scroll to the newly added item if it's not in view Fixed a bug where Damage was sometimes incorrectly rolling bonuses or dice when rolling directly from chat Fixed a bug where adding new features to a custom Background or
Species were being reordered on the fly. Features created will only be
resorted by level after saving.
Demiplane Updates:
Massive patch update this week! Too big for this post so you can find it here!
Every NEXUS got quite a bit of love!
Demiplane + Roll20 | Beta Integration Updates:
Work continues on the next phase of the integration. (No, we don’t have anything to share quite yet but it will improve your experiences
on the VTT quite a bit!)
