250 Appendix Publishing History The Pirate, s Guide to Freeport This appendix is a guide to the previously published products of the Freeport line, organized by date of release. It shows how the Freeport line developed over the years and provides a useful resource for collectors and completists. Death in Freeport (2000) Author: Chris Pramas This was the adventure that started it all. Released at GenCon 2000, Death in Freeport was one of only two d20 books to release the same day as the new D&D Player’s Handbook. It was designed to provide an introductory adventure for new adventuring parties. Death in Freeport went on to win an Origins Award and the very first ENnie Award. It has been translated into French, Spanish, and Portuguese. Terror in Freeport (2000) Author: Robert J. Toth This adventure was part two of the Freeport Trilogy. It continued the story started in Death in Freeport and featured the murder of Councilor Verlaine. He was but the first member of the Captains’ Council to meet an untimely end in the course of the Freeport adventures. Madness in Freeport (2001) Author: William Simoni The Freeport Trilogy concluded with this adventure. The true purpose of the lighthouse was revealed and the reign of Milton Drac ended. With the Sea Lord dead and no declared heir, however, the city was thrown into a succession crisis. Hell in Freeport (2001) Authors: Paul Bazakas, Jim Bishop, and Jess Lebow Released at GenCon one year after Death in Freeport, this adventure was designed to tie into the Legions of Hell sourcebook. This time an infernal lich schemed to pull all of Freeport into Hell. At 88-pages this was the biggest Freeport adventure to date. Hell in Freeport also featured an 8-page color section. Freeport: The City of Adventure (2002) Authors: Jim Bishop, Matt Forbeck, Hal Mangold, and Chris Pramas With the success of the Freeport Trilogy, it only made sense to do a dedicated sourcebook about the City of Adventure. This 160-page hardback is the precursor to the Pirate’s Guide to Freeport, and until the latter’s publication, it was the core book of the line. Freeport: The City of Adventure won two ENnie Awards (Best Setting Supplement and Best Cartography). Denizens of Freeport (2003) Editor: Chris Wilkes This book was all about characters. Its 96 pages were full of NPCs from the streets of Freeport. Submissions were solicited from many freelance writers and the book features the work of 19 designers. These ranged from previous Freeport authors like Robert J. Toth and William Simoni to new blood including Patrick O’Duffy and Keith Baker. Many of these characters are included in the Pirate’s Guide to Freeport, though time has sometimes changed them in unexpected ways. Denizens of Freeport was also the first book of the line graced by a Wayne Reynolds cover. Tales of Freeport (2003) Author: Graeme Davis Tales of Freeport was something new for the line: an adventure anthology. The book featured four adventures, a variety of plots, and two new locations. The biggest of the adventures, the Soul of the Serpent, delved deeper in the history of the serpent people. Appendix: Publishing History
251 Publishing History Appendix The Pirate, s Guide to Freeport Trilogy. In addition to the original adventures, this book included two short interlude adventures, Holiday in the Sun and Thieves and Liars. Crisis in Freeport (2006) Authors: Chris Pramas, Robert J. Schwalb, and Rodney Thompson With plans underway for the Pirate’s Guide to Freeport, it was finally time to resolve the succession crisis. This meant more bad news for various members of the Captains’ Council. With the end of the adventure, Marilise Maeorgan became the new Sea Lord and the stage was set for the Pirate’s Guide. Odds and Ends The preceding eleven books are the major titles of the lines, but there have been some other related releases as well. Several companies chose to include Freeport in their own campaign settings, most notably Paradigm Concepts in Arcanis: the World of Shattered Empires. The adventure “Dead Man’s Quest” appeared in Dungeon Magazine #107. Goodman Games published a Dungeon Crawl Classic, Shadows in Freeport, set in the City of Adventure and written by Robert J. Schwalb. Ronin Arts produced Treasures of Freeport, a PDF collection of magical items and treasures. There have also been two PDF adventures, Vengeance in Freeport (published by Green Ronin) and Gangs of Freeport (published by Adamant Entertainment). Finally, in a superheroic twist, Freeport appears in the Freedom City campaign setting for Green Ronin’s Mutants & Masterminds RPG. Black Sails Over Freeport (2003) Authors: Brian E. Kirby, Robert Lawson, William Simoni, and Robert J. Toth There had been many Freeport adventures before this one, but none so epic. Black Sails Over Freeport was 256 pages of swashbuckling action climaxing with the barbarian invasion of the city…and of course a giant kraken. Black Sails Over Freeport won an Origins Award for Best Roleplaying Adventure. Creatures of Freeport (2004) Authors: Keith Baker and Graeme Davis Creatures of Freeport took a deeper look at the monsters in and around the Serpent’s Teeth. It detailed only 17 creatures, but lavished a lot of attention on each one. This was the first Freeport book to use the 3.5 d20 rules. Freeport Trilogy: 5-Year Anniversary Edition (2005) Authors: Chris Pramas, William Simoni, and Robert J. Toth With the original adventures out of print and the fifth anniversary of Death in Freeport’s release approaching, GenCon 2005 seemed the perfect time to release a revised and updated version of the Freeport
