Adventures in Tehuatl includes five adventures that take the characters on a journey across the island of the same name. Although not part of a formal story arc or adventure path, when run in succession, the adventures can help PCs progress from aspiring heroes to renowned legends. The following adventures also include appendices containing new monsters, magic items, spells, hazards, and equipment. In The Reeducation of Coyotl the local calmecac has fallen into disarray as the noble scions seem to have imposed their own brand of chaos over the school under the direction of a malevolent master. In Gargoyle Pet Sematary the people’s loyal, miniature pet gargoyles have run amok and turned against their owners, though their mischievous behavior is only the start of what horrors await the town’s residents. PCs in Seven Year Harvest have to help a small tow that inadvertently killed a noble creature which has come back to haunt the residents. In Rider on the Storm the awakening of a long slumbering evil has transformed a teenage rite of passage into a horrific nightmare that threatens to spread throughout the land. PCs adventuring through The Daughter of the Drowned Serpent face the wicked child of an ancient foe who plots to return her father to his throne unless the PCs stop her terrible plan from unfolding.

Dark Lord’s Doom focuses on a squad of soldiers fighting in an all-out war to defeat the evil Lord before it’s too late. Saethor’s Dark Legion was hired to keep order in a time of famine, betrayed and massacred the council that hired him, and seized power. He assimilated the Red Fang orcs and defeated the elves of Amberwood. Now, it is the kingdom’s turn. Ironskull Castle is headquarters to Lady Raelle Ironskull, mercenary warlord turned magical arms dealer, mistress of Eldritch Arms.

Vampire Hunter Belladonna is a solo/programmed adventure in which you play Belladonna, the young maid and cook at Ironskull Castle while moonlighting as a vampire slayer wielding silver stakes and deadly poisons. Years ago, the sinister Lord Adrik Blackbird turned your best friend into a vampire and you had to stake them both. Now you journey through the villages and wilderness near Ironskull Castle hunting vampires and other monsters. During your quest, you uncover disturbing rumors of the rise of a new and terrifying master vampire and an arcane relic they desire. You won't need a Game Master. A system of branching paragraphs directs you from encounter to encounter. You resolve combat or other encounters using the TFT rules. Includes multiple new monsters and magic items.

The Compendium of Equestria's official description makes it sound like it's collecting material from past releases. I wonder if this is them wrapping up the line, since WotC has announced their own My Little Pony game, based on D&D, which presumably means either River Horse has lost the license or they're being told to wind down the Tails of Equestria line and create a new game using the D&D engine.

It's not WotC, it's Renegade Game Studios. And they said the Tails game wasn't cancelled when they announced the deal last year, though that may change.

It's hard for me to imagine the market supporting two competing My Little Pony RPGs or either licensee being up for that, unless there's a very big wrinkle with the Renegade game we don't know about yet.
