Player's Secrets of Tuornen is a supplement to the 2nd edition of the Advanced Dungeons & Dragons fantasy role-playing game.

Contents[]

Player's Secrets of Tuornen is a sourcebook for the Birthright campaign setting, part of the "Player's Secrets" line.[1] Each set in the series has a laminated cover that folds out to reveal color maps, city and castle plans and more. The text begins with an introduction from the in-character point of view of the domain's most important NPCs, outlining the current state of affairs for the PC who is about to take charge of the domain. This is followed by the history and geography of the domain, game statistics for important NPCs, and a series of adventuring ideas.[1]

Reception[]

Cliff Ramshaw reviewed Player's Secrets of Tuornen for Arcane magazine, rating it an 8 out of 10 overall.[1] He comments that "The domain of Tuornen is suited to a warrior PC. Two rival neighbouring lords are vying for your loyalty; to the north is the lair of the vicious Rhuobhe Manslayer; and, worst of all, the court toymaker is a covert operative for a rival power..."[1] Ramshaw comments on the series at a whole, that "these sourcebooks are a bit overpriced and some of the history behind the domains is hackneyed or tedious. But all the sourcebooks help you to create believable worlds, with enough conflicting agencies to create strong and imaginative plotlines for years to come."[1]
