|$10| Dragonlance: Shadow of the Dragon Queen
350 years ago, all dragons and clerics vanished during the Cataclysm. Now, both are back & the evil dragon queen Takhisis threatens the world with war
---
The War of the Lance is just ramping up. Will you stand against the forces of Takhisis?
Join at any point, war is hell andย we could all stand to fight against evil.
The world of Krynn never fully healed from the Cataclysm. The clerics, dragons & Gods disappeared all overnight and left the world to rebuid. 350 years later, evil clerics, evil dragons & evil Gods rise once more to claim the land.
You'll find yourselves wrapped up in this conflict, from attending an old friends funeral to marching with a military to stop this threat, your rise is dramatic, earned and awe inspiring.
Face the threats of Ancient evils, dragons and politics as the war unfolds. Expect a mix of lore, combat, puzzles, roleplay and humour as you navigate the current climate.
Whether you're discovering Krynn for the first time or returning to the world for something new - I will guide you through it all. Character creation through DNDBeyond, Party Composition and rules will all be covered in Session 0.
FoundryVTT will be used for Maps, Music and everything else. Expect NPC Voices, curated music and a fitting atmosphere. Join me as I take you through my favourite D&D world, my very own special interest.
