Mark of the Tigers Stripe: Revised Edition

An ancient horror has surfaced in the arid city of Kairran. The Tiger's Stripe sends in their Hunters, agents specially trained to kill the monsters before the deadly truth behind them is revealed. But the secret may already be out. Assad Alabwaq, one of Kairran's vicious crime lords, has heard rumours of the beasts and believes they would make a fine addition to his brutal gladiator games. And it appears he isn't working alone.

However, everything falls apart when a political assassination throws the region into chaos, and the Hunters discover they aren't the only ones on Alabwaq's trail. Sedric Barnes, a journalist from the nation of Locke, seeks to expose the crime lord and force an uninterested public to realize the threat on their doorstep. Little does Barnes know that the strange birthmark on his arm is more than a curiosity, and he is about to enter a world of cloaks, daggers, and creatures of nightmare thousands of years old.

This revised edition of Mark of the Tiger's Stripe contains altered material from the original version. Most changes were minor, and done to fix errors and provide better characterization. However, they are still changed from the original, and it is my hope that previous readers think of them for the better.
