The staff of Darkson Designs will be out of the office for a few days.

From their announcement:

The Darkson Staff will be out of the office from Aug 3-8 doing research for the Occult Expansion. We will be exploring the:

Chichen Itza Mayan Ruins: The Mundo Maya’s most famous site, Chichen Itza was founded in 445 BC and inhabited until 1204 AD when, mysteriously, it was abandoned.

The site is centered around the largest structure, the pyramid El Castillo (The Castle), which has steps that end in huge serpents heads. During the Equinoxes, these steps cast shadows which give the appearance of a great snake descending the pyramid. Other important buildings include the Observatory, the temple of Chac Mool, and the Tzompantli, a representation of the underworld.

Tulum Mayan Ruins An important coastal trade city in the Mundo Maya, Tulum was a walled settlement inhabited from the 3rd century AD to the 10th century AD.

Here, the edifice, El Castillo (The Castle), is built on a high cliff overlooking the Caribbean Sea and creates a stunning vista, especially at sunrise. Other important structures are the Temple of the Frescoes, which is ornately painted on the interior and adorned with detailed carved masks at each corner, and the Temple of the Descending God with intricate bas-relief carvings.

We will also be exploring several underground rivers/cave systems.

See you all at Gen Con.
