Mysterious shadow beasts haunt the crumbling city of Westcrown, where 100 years ago devil-worshiping cultists wrested control of the empire from the hands of an effete aristocracy. Fresh from their earliest victories against the diabolical gang known as the Bastards of Erebus, the heroes must infiltrate the manor of a local lord and patron of the arts. To do this, they must join the cast of a controversial new play so that they might search the noble's home during an after-production party. The play, The Six Trials of Lazarod has never been successfully performed to completion without the deaths of the actors. And guess who just got cast in the lead roles? A Pathfinder adventure designed for character levels 5-6. The Council of Thieves Adventure Path is the first to take full advantage of the new Pathfinder Roleplaying Game rules, and works with both the Pathfinder RPG and the standard 3.5 fantasy RPG rules set.
