Sirens (audio product)

ADD TO WISHLIST >

Square in your ship's path are Sirens, crying beauty to bewitch men coasting by;
woe to the innocent who hears that sound!
He will not see his lady nor his children in joy, crowding about him, home from sea;
the Sirens will sing his mind away on their sweet meadow lolling.
There are bones of dead men rotting in a pile beside them and flayed skins shrivel around the spot.
Steer wide; keep well to seaward; plug your oarsmen's ears with beeswax kneaded soft;
none of the rest should hear that song.
But if you wish to listen, let the men tie you in the lugger,
hand and foot, back to the mast, lashed to the mast,
so you may hear those harpies' thrilling voices;
shout as you will, begging to be untied,
your crew must only twist more line around you
and keep their stroke up, till the singers fade.

– The Odyssey
    
You’ve reached that most treacherous part of your voyage: you’re passing the rocky coast where the Sirens sing their song. Will you and your crew sail past safely? Or will you steer towards the sound and see your ship dashed on the rocks?

“Sirens” is a background sound of the mythical song of the Sirens – an unearthly keen that lures sailors to their deaths – along with lapping waves and the creak of a wooden ship’s hull and the occasional ring of the ship’s bell. The effect is ten minutes long and loops seamlessly.

The original provider of Sound Effects for Role Playing, Toxic Bag brings over 20 years of sound effects experience directly to your gaming table. We currently offer more than 200 unique sounds for all genres of RPG!

Scanned image
These products were created by scanning an original printed edition. Most older books are in scanned image format because original digital layout files never existed or were no longer available from the publisher.

For PDF download editions, each page has been run through Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software to attempt to decipher the printed text. The result of this OCR process is placed invisibly behind the picture of each scanned page, to allow for text searching. However, any text in a given book set on a graphical background or in handwritten fonts would most likely not be picked up by the OCR software, and is therefore not searchable. Also, a few larger books may be resampled to fit into the system, and may not have this searchable text background.

For printed books, we have performed high-resolution scans of an original hardcopy of the book. We essentially digitally re-master the book. Unfortunately, the resulting quality of these books is not as high. It's the problem of making a copy of a copy. The text is fine for reading, but illustration work starts to run dark, pixellating and/or losing shades of grey. Moiré patterns may develop in photos. We mark clearly which print titles come from scanned image books so that you can make an informed purchase decision about the quality of what you will receive.

Most newer books are in the original electronic format. Both download and print editions of such books should be high quality.
