Book of Ebon Bindings (Tekumel) Barker, MAR
Theatre of the Mind (TOME) 1991 Paperback Fine
TOME Black-cover edition (1991). ; "Preface: The first part of this book consists of an introduction to the religion of Tsolyanu, its deities and cosmology, plus a brief discussion of its magical arts, the planes of being, and the various creatures which inhabit these latter. The second section of this work then presents a translation of The Book of Ebon Bindings, one of the most complete and detailed texts on the subject of Tsolyani demonology now found in the Five Empires. The introduction is itself a translation from the work of one of the writer's oldest friends and mentors, Tse'mel [roughly = "Cardinal"] Qure'n hiKe'dcolel, High Ritual Priest of the temple of Lord Ksarul at Be"y Su. In response to questions put by various foreign students resident in the Tsolyani capital, Tse'mel Qure'n had kindly summarized the series of lectures which he regularly gives to acolytes entering his priesthood. He has modified this summary somewhat so that it will be suitable for those unfamiliar with Tsolyani mores and beliefs. The writer wishes to extend his thanks to Tse'mel Qure'n, as well as to other friends in the Temple of Lord Ksarul for their kindness, patience, and willingness to explain the intricacies of their faith. The writer is neither a philosopher nor a theologian, and the task has not been an easy one for his Tsolyani colleagues. Particular thanks are due to Mr. Trasune' hiTankolei and Miss Kalusu hiViridame, who joined in the work of translation, corrected the author's errors, and proofread this manuscript..."; 82 pages

Tekumel: Empire of the Petal Throne Barker, M.A.R.
Guardians of Order 2003 1894525310 / 9781894525312 Hardcover Fine
Beautiful. Color FOLD-OUT MAP still attached in the back. ; "In a pocket universe, millennia removed from our own, lies a system of five planets engineered by forgotten planetary-scale technologies. The vibrant world of Tekumel, once a busy interstellar crossroads terraformed to suit the needs of its brutal rulers, was isolated over 30,000 years ago when the stars went out. What emerged from this Time of Darkness was a world forged in disaster, but strong in custom, history, life... and death. Professor M.A.R. Barker has devoted over 50 years to creating the Tekumel universe, developing it into a vivid science-fantasy setting with rich backgrounds and unique cultural identities. Inspired not only by the pulp SF and fantasy of the mid-20th Century, but also by the rich civilisations of Moghul India, Ancient Egypt, and the Aztecs, Tekumel sets the stage for a role-playing experience unlike any other. This core rulebook features a system derived from the popular Tri-Stat System, customised to enhance the intricate setting of Tekumel's Five Empires. Inside you'll find non-human race templates, a new magic system, alternate combat options, details on clans and military/priesthood service, a select bestiary, and much more. Whether you are a long-time devotee of Barker's work, or a player new to the setting, join us in celebrating the revival of Tekumel: Empire of the Petal Throne."; 240 pages
