About the adventure
In the realm of Faerûn, a dark shadow looms on the horizon, heralding an age of fear and chaos. The Cult of the Dragon, once a fractured and secretive cabal, has united with a singular purpose: to bring forth the Queen of Dragons, Tiamat, from her infernal prison. Whispers of their dread plans have reached your ears, and fate has chosen you to stand against this rising tide of evil. The Call to Adventure From the quiet hamlets of the Sword Coast to the bustling streets of Waterdeep, rumors of dragon sightings and mysterious disappearances have spread like wildfire. As the skies darken and the threat grows, brave souls are needed to uncover the cult’s sinister plots, rally allies, and ultimately prevent the apocalypse. Your Journey Begins You find yourselves in the town of Greenest, a once peaceful village now under siege by ruthless raiders and a menacing blue dragon. Amid the chaos, you must defend the helpless, uncover clues about the cult's ambitions, and begin a perilous journey that will take you from ancient ruins and hidden strongholds to the heart of a vast conspiracy. Heroes Wanted Will you answer the call? Will you stand against the Tyranny of Dragons and thwart the resurrection of a god-like being? The path ahead is fraught with danger, deception, and dragonfire, but the rewards are great for those with courage, wisdom, and an unyielding spirit. Join Us Gather your companions, sharpen your blades, and prepare your spells. The fate of Faerûn rests in your hands. Together, we will forge a legend that will be told for generations. Are you ready to face the Tyranny of Dragons?

About me
Hello there! I'm thrilled to introduce myself as a lifelong game master, freelance RPG designer, and professional GM. With a passion for immersive storytelling, I have had the privilege of working with esteemed names like Wizards of the Coast, Paizo, Ulisses North America, Schwalb Entertainment, Kobold Press, Alligator Alley Entertainment, and Soldier Spy. My experience includes being a member of the D&D Guild Adepts and serving as the community manager for the D&D Adventurers League. One of my biggest passions lies in the captivating world of Dark Sun. As a die-hard fan, I founded the renowned Burnt World of Athas website (Athas.org), dedicated to exploring and celebrating the unique setting. Hailing from the deserts of Athas, or as some might call it, Phoenix, AZ, I draw inspiration from this sun-scorched realm and infuse it into my games. In addition to my professional endeavors, my personal life is filled with adventure. I reside in Phoenix, AZ, with my wonderful wife, two little adventurers who have already caught the RPG bug, and two beloved animal companions. I am excited to embark on new gaming journeys, create unforgettable stories, and share my love for tabletop roleplaying with you. Together, we'll traverse realms, conquer challenges, and weave tales that will linger in our memories for years to come. Let's embark on an incredible adventure together!
