Experts v.3.5 takes the concept of the Expert non-player-character class briefly described in the Dungeon Master’s Guide and gives it unprecedented depth and playability. This 176-page book includes: * More than 30 fully detailed Expert types, including the Alchemist, Blacksmith, Courtesan, Merchant, Miner, Navigator, Physician, Sage, Sailor, and Weaponmaker. * The Specialist, a new basic character class that players can use to create versatile “adventuring Experts” of any sort. * The Guild Master, Militia Leader, and Spellcrafter prestige classes, the latter of which can allow Experts, Specialists, and other characters to gain specialized magical abilities that they can use to enhance their mundane abilities. * More than 100 skills, including dozens of Crafts and Professions and detailed rules for creation of everything from weapons and armor to buildings and ships. * The concept of Convergence Tasks, activities that can be accomplished as the result of having ranks in two or more skills (e.g., use of Craft (Blacksmithing) and Profession (Mining) to perform Smelting). These can allow characters to perform relatively specialized functions but does not inundate the game with obscure, rarely-used skills. * A section of 20 new Feats. * 22 new magic items. * More than two dozen ready-to-use NPC Experts that can be used as-is or easily modified to suit any campaign or adventure. * Flavor text from a number of literary sources that can help stimulate interest in the various sorts of Experts presented in this book, suggest how they might be used, or show them in a different light than usual.

This is the first official script for the Cthulhu Live 3rd Edition horror live-action role-playing game (LARP).  The Kingdom of Jerusalem in 1190 is in dire peril. Saladin s army has retaken Jerusalem. The crusader army is in tatters. The once-mighty Christian kingdoms of Palestine are crumbling. In the easternmost provinces of the Christian kingdoms, the fortress of Li Vaux Moise has been under siege for three months. The defenders have tried to hold out, but the fortress is clearly about to fall, and the commander of the Muslim army has requested a meeting to discuss terms of the garrison s surrender.  But there are dark forces at work here far greater than any mortal army. Ancient evils from the wind-swept deserts stalk the stone walls, hungry for blood and power. Terrible, mind-shattering secrets from beyond the stars lie ripe to be exposed. Horrors beyond the comprehension of both Christian and Muslim threaten to devour them both -- or force them into an unlikely alliance.  This full-length adventure for Cthulhu Live 3rd Edition places the players in the roles of the besieged Europeans and the Muslim ambassadors. Amidst their doom and desolation, they will face betrayal, intrigue, and a desperate fight for survival.  This adventure includes:  * Suggestions for props, costumes, and atmospheric effects.  * New arcane abilities and mystic artifacts.  * 27 Pre-generated characters, so you can jump straight into the game.  * Two versions of the adventure: one optimized for reading on-screen, and one optimized for printing.
