Vanished Without a Trace
The Stolen Lands consume many wanderers—the perils of its rugged wildernesses and hidden mysteries prey upon even the wariest of travelers. Founded upon one of the most savage frontiers, the colony of Varnhold defied the many dangers of this harsh region. At least, it did until all the residents of the fledgling community completely disappeared. Now it falls to the PCs to discover what became of their eastern neighbor, a secret steeped in generations-old hatreds and the mysteries of an empire long crumbled to dust. Can they uncover the terrible secret behind this shocking disappearance before the same calamity befalls their own land?
This volume of Pathfinder Adventure Path includes:
- “The Varnhold Vanishing,” a Pathfinder RPG adventure for 7th-level characters, by Greg A. Vaughan.
- A gazetteer of Iobaria, frigid land of savagery and fallen empires, by Steven Schend.
- Six new sites of adventure and mystery to expand your Kingmaker campaign, by Ed Greenwood.
- A new Pathfinder’s Journal in which Pathfinder Ollix Kaddar and Phargas discover the price of gallantry, by J. C. Hay.
- Five new monsters, by Ed Greenwood, Colin McComb, F. Wesley Schneider, and Neil Spicer.

Pathfinder Adventure Path #33: The Varnhold Vanishing (Kingmaker, #3) Reviews
-
The Kingmaker AP continues with more of the same, largely, but it continues to do it well. PC's head east to investigate the mysterious disappearance of the settlement of Varnhold. Purposefully evoking the lost early American colony of Roanoke. Many more hexes to be explored. A little mystery, a little interaction with some centaurs, and a wee dungeon delve leading to a confrontation with a memorable BBEG: the cyclops lich gracing the cover of the volume.
Also includes a solid gazetteer for the Casmaron land of Iobaria, lying east of the Lake of Mist and Veils (and Brevoy and the River Kingdoms), as well as some further points of interest and enconter opportunities in the PC's expanding area of influence.
