"Death Sails a Wine-Dark Sea" is a Pathfinder Adventure for four 4th-level characters. This adventure continues the Myth-Speaker Adventure Path, a three-part monthly campaign in which the player characters assume the role of regional hero-gods and have the opportunity to restore the tradition of myth-speaking to a realm inspired by Ancient Greece. This volume also includes a gazetteer of the Iblydan Archipelago, a system for managing the cult forming around the pantheon of player characters, and a toolbox of new items, exemplar abilities, and creatures from the mythic isles of Iblydos.

Each monthly full-color softcover Pathfinder Adventure Path volume contains an in-depth adventure scenario, stats for several new monsters, and support articles meant to give Game Masters additional material to expand their campaign.
