Dark Passages: The Exploration of Mao Pao for Shadow of the Demon Lord






Created using Dark Passages

The Exploration of Mao Pao is a tablet made from the scale of a sundrake that appears new and unused. Small, cramped words have been lightly printed upon it in the Dark Speech using squid ink. The table contains a single illustration of Mao Pao, the Living Orifice, in it's center which animates and defecates blood if you stare at it for more than a few moments. The work is a treatise on how to contact and gain Mao Pao's attention by an unknown author, the poor should that crafted it was removed, completely and utterly, from existence as a reward for its service. A character who spends 1d3 weeks studying it, gains the Forbidden tradition and a Rank 0 spell from that tradition.
