ARRAKIS: SOURCE OF THE SPICE.
In the backwaters of the vast Imperium of humanity lies the hostile desert
world of Arrakis. It is a deadly place, where no drop of rain falls and the
people live a sparse existence in the baking cities of the northern pole. But
Arrakis is the most important planet in the entire universe, for it is only
here that you can find the spice melange.
The spice is everything. To
some, it is a way to extend life, to others a way to see into the future. It is
the key to wealth and power in the Imperium, and many of the noble Houses will
stop at nothing to control it in any way they can. The cities of Arrakeen and
Carthag are full of agents and spies, all looking to gain advantage for their
faction, and ready to kill to maintain the power of their masters. Will Arrakis
be the place your characters prove the power of their House, or will their
blood be spilled on the unforgiving sands?
This sourcebook for the
Dune: Adventures in the Imperium roleplaying game, takes you to the desert
world of Arrakis and explores the secrets of the spice. Visit the hidden
sietches of the Fremen to learn the mysteries of their culture. Walk without
rhythm in the great deserts and perhaps see one of the incredible sandworms.
Trade secrets with spies and agents in the bustling marketplace of Arrakeen or
the alleys of Carthag. Arrakis is a planet of mysteries and danger, and those
who underestimate it never leave.
