Review of the project by Nerdarchy

7 sins, 7 virtues, and 7 districts in the city! Now it’s time to choose a side! A district page with additional lore and tables will begin each section. There will also be encounter tables, adventure hooks, GM advice, events tables, locations tables, CR and creature type listings, and more.

Each district will contain two legendary monsters that represent one of the sins and one of the virtues (see below). Monsters in the book include devils, demons, celestials, fey, undead, constructs, oozes, giants, and many humanoids. In fact, three new races of humanoids will be introduced. Approximately 130 pages in length.
