Devised as a collaboration to raise funds for charity, the book is a collection of weapons with fascinating histories, ready to drop into a treasure horde, or even make the focus of a whole adventure. It is now available FREE from RPG Now, the sharing goes on.
Publisher's blurb: "Swords Into Plowshares was a compilation project initiated by Sean K Reynolds to be a charity fundraiser for the Afghan Girls Fund, a charity created by the National Geographic Society to provide educational opportunities and medical assistance for the women and girls of Afghanistan. The project was initiated after the Society was able to track down Sharbat Gula, the Afghan refugee with the striking eyes photographed 17 years ago.
"Swords Into Plowshares features 32 pages of magic weapons (each at approximately 1/2 page in length) for the d20 system, each with a description and background information. Authored, edited, and illustrated by concerned people in the RPG industry, Swords Into Plowshares was created entirely on volunteer time. The game material in the book is entirely open game content as defined by the Open Gaming License."
