Sands of Time – Revised 2023 Edition

A Scenario for the Stormbringer 5th Edition ruleset by Michael Baumann & Matthew Hartley

THE SANDS OF TIME is a challenging STORMBRINGER 5th Edition scenario written for four to six experienced adventurers. In this thrilling tale, our heroes are drawn into the long lost deserts of the forgotten Quarzhasaat empire, and there will be forced to face doom at the hands of a long cursed God and its vile play thing.

Although THE SANDS OF TIME is designed to be the first part of a mini campaign (which is completed with the second scenario Shadows of the Past) it also includes alternate beginnings and endings are provided for Game Masters who do not choose to run the adventures back-to-back.

Written by Michael Baumann and Matthew Hartley, these scenarios were originally released via the Chaosium website in 2003, and now appears on www.stormbringerrpg.com (in this new updated format) with the kind permission of their authors.

“Once Quarzhasaat had ruled a land of rivers and lovely valleys, its forests verdant, its plains abundant with crops, but that had been before the casting of certain incautious spells in a war with threatening Melniboné more than two thousand years earlier. Quarzhasaat’s empire had been lost to both sides. It had been engulfed by a vast mass of sand which swept over it like a tide, leaving only the capital and her traditions which in time became the prime reason for her continuing existence. Because Quarzhasaat hadalways stood there, she must be sustained, her citizens believed, at any cost throughout eternity. Though she had no purpose or function, still her masters felt a heavy obligation to continue her existence by whichever means they found expedient. Fourteen times had armies attempted to cross the Sighing Desert to loot fabulous Quarzhasaat. Fourteen times had the desert itself defeated them.
