Bethesda has teamed up with Dark Horse Comics to create a special and very limited edition Hero’s Guide for the upcoming game, The Elder Scrolls Online. The guide is exclusively available on the Bethesda Store here.
The guide is limited to a 10,000 run and contains 272 pages of original writing and graphics spread across three books. It’s packed together in a clamshell including a miniature lithograph in a numbered portfolio.
The set is written by David S. J. Hodgson and featuring art by Brynn Metheney, Roberto Gomes, David Keen, and Caio Cacau.
“This set consists of tomes from across Tamriel during the Second Era. Each book presents different facets of the world: A trek across the provinces by a group of Nord hunters in honor of the Sky Goddess Kyne; an Imperial catalog of weapons and armor used by the great races; and the journal of a wizard's apprentice, focusing on alchemical studies. These books were all brought together for you to experience stories from the realm as you make your own explorations across the Starry Heart.”
Here’s what’s in it:
– Kyne’s Challenge: A Hunter’s Companion Hardcover bestiary bound in faux-leather, with full emboss/deboss and spot foil on cover and spine. 168 gold gilded pages with a ribbon marker and 156 original illustrations by Brynn Metheney, Roberto Gomes, and David Keen.
– Gathering Force: Arms and Armor of Tamriel Soft touch fighter’s guide with rounded spine, embossed cover, and silver foil on front and back cover. 56 deckled pages with a ribbon marker and 96 original illustrations by Caio Cacau.
– Agents and Reagents: The Bounty of Mundus Envelope-wrapped alchemical notebook with cord closure and embossed cover. 48 deckled pages with 47 original illustrations by Brynn Metheney.
