Calimport and the Skyfire Wastes: A Guide for Games in the Calim Desert

ADD TO WISHLIST >
Average Rating (3 ratings)

Explore an elementally-blasted wasteland formed from thousands of years of feuding genies. Discover ancient ruins and priceless relics lost to the sands of time. Embark on an adventure worthy of inclusion to the One Thousand and One Long Rests. Ally yourself with powerful Calishite pashas in a bid for the future of Calimport—City of Glory.

Calimport and the Skyfire Wastes: A Guide for Games in the Calim Desert is a 105-page sourcebook which expands upon the current affairs of post-Spellplague Calimshan, a fan-favorite region of Faerûn barely touched upon in the fifth edition of the Dungeons & Dragons roleplaying game. Calishites have finally won their freedom after a violent revolution, killing or exiling their genasi murabirs. Chaos reigns in Calimport as several factions vie for power in a new, still-forming government. This sourcebook presents content both DMs and players will find useful for creating campaigns set in the region, including:

  • Character creation options for the Skyfire Wastes setting, specifically: race/lineage, background, and optional class features
  • New subclasses for the druid, paladin, and rogue
  • Group Patrons and example patron quests appropriate to the region
  • An overview of Calimport, as well as each of its 17 wards and 53 sabbans
  • A highly-detailed map of Calimport (both in the pdf and as a high-res png)
  • Calimport factions, unique NPCs, and example urban quests
  • Descriptions of other Calishite cities, ruins, and adventure locations in the Calim Desert
  • Wasteland navigation and desert hazards
  • Wasteland encounters and descriptions
  • DM tools for player engagement, theme, and flavoring desert stories.
  • New magic items, desert creatures and NPCs

So, what are you waiting for, sadidrifi? Get out there and comb the desert for adventure in this sourcebook for the world’s greatest roleplaying game!

Updating Conventions of Previous Editions:

Some of the source material the author researched for this guide was published in an era of D&D which has drawn much-lauded criticism for its cultural insensitivity and lack of inclusion/representation. The author has strived to present this slice of the Forgotten Realms with the same approach as fifth edition’s most-recent publications and offers non-canonical suggestions for improvement.

**Full-Size Preview**
For some reason, the full-size preview is not working since I updated the file. I've made sure to set up the preview for the new file, but it hasn't shown up on the product page. I'm told there can be considerable lag between resubmitting preview pages for display. Fingers crossed it doesn't take too much longer to update.

Indeed it does! The guide itself has a glorious map of Calimport, with every ward and all the sabbans delineated within. The PDF has a limit to the quality of the image, so I've included the 13.3mb PNG of the map itself. I can't stress to you enough how amazing the map is. You can zoom in and see rooftops, palm trees, mausoleums, arenas, etc. I've used it in Roll20 so the PCs can explore the city. It helps especially when they need to traverse the city quickly or discreetly (or both!) and have to plot a course through the different gates/guardhouses and neighborhoods.

It also includes a hexagonal map of the Skyfire Wastes for traveling through the Calim Desert.

Scanned image
These products were created by scanning an original printed edition. Most older books are in scanned image format because original digital layout files never existed or were no longer available from the publisher.

For PDF download editions, each page has been run through Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software to attempt to decipher the printed text. The result of this OCR process is placed invisibly behind the picture of each scanned page, to allow for text searching. However, any text in a given book set on a graphical background or in handwritten fonts would most likely not be picked up by the OCR software, and is therefore not searchable. Also, a few larger books may be resampled to fit into the system, and may not have this searchable text background.

For printed books, we have performed high-resolution scans of an original hardcopy of the book. We essentially digitally re-master the book. Unfortunately, the resulting quality of these books is not as high. It's the problem of making a copy of a copy. The text is fine for reading, but illustration work starts to run dark, pixellating and/or losing shades of grey. Moiré patterns may develop in photos. We mark clearly which print titles come from scanned image books so that you can make an informed purchase decision about the quality of what you will receive.
