Getting Started Quickly
STONE PROPHET includes a character generator that allows you to indi-
vidually design and name the characters for your adventure. To start
right away, you may begin with a party of characters already included
in a pre-saved game.
Because your success in STONE PROPHET depends on the skills and
talents of these characters, you may wish to read on, even when
starting with the party included in the game. The sections “How to
Play,” starting on page 4, and “Creating Your Party of Characters,”
starting on page 32, can be very helpful.
You may also import a party of characters from a saved game of
RAVENLOFT: STRAHD’S POSSESSION. To find out how this is done, refer to
the section “Importing Characters from RAVENLOFT: STRAHD’S
POSSESSION,” starting on page 35.
WELCOME TO
THE REALM
OF THE STONE
PROPHET
The desert of Har’Akir is ancient
beyond belief. Not all of its past
is marked by noble deeds and
great kings. In ancient days, the
evil pharaoh Anhktepot ruled a
great and powerful nation. His
downfall stemmed from his
desire for immortality. Cursed by
Ra, the sun god, Anhktepot’s
soul still remains in his mummi-
fied form and brings death to
those it touches at night.

world, begins when your char-
acters become trapped in a
wasteland haunted by unnatural
creatures, fierce sand storms,
and cursed villagers afflicted by
a horrible rotting disease. Your
party’s only hope of escape is to
follow the advice of a blind seer
and seek out the Stone Prophet,
a huge, hieroglyphic wall hidden
deep within a mysterious
obelisk. Some say the writings
on the wall, when deciphered,
may lead the party to freedom. . .
or to death. One thing is certain,
a great conflict has been fore-
seen, and the mummy lord is
gathering his forces.
