Dragon's Hoard

A Song of Ice and Fire RPG | Campaign

About the adventure

Welcome to Westeros, the world of George RR Martin's A Song of Ice and Fire. The year is 297 AL. Fourteen years ago, Robert's Rebellion reshaped the Seven Kingdoms, but that is all in the past now... or rather it is supposed to be. In reality the war has left behind mysteries, dangers and opportunities, all of which your noble house can experience if only they have the courage to do so. If you can face down killers, outwit lords and travel to foreign lands, your House just might win the Game of Thrones. This is a game of Green Ronin's A Song of Ice and Fire Roleplaying Game, specifically its Dragon's Hoard chronicle. The system lets you create your own house and characters and tell your own story in Martin's epic, gritty world. This game is based on the A Song of Ice and Fire books rather than the TV show adaptation, but since our story begins a year earlier, differences are minimal and show fans can enjoy themselves just as much. The future events of the series are not set in stone for our story and can be changed by player action.

We played Tales From The Loop last night, one of my favorite RPGs. Caestus was a solid game master. He trained the group on the new tabletop VTT called Alchemy which was easy and fun to use. He knew the Year Zero Engine rules well and ran the game smoothly.

Caestus was really helpful in trying to figure out some tech difficulties at the beginning of the session, and was a lovely GM once the story got underway. He wove our character backgrounds into the story seamlessly, making for some fun RP. All in all, a real good time!

Booked a game last minute. Most DM's would never run it last minute. Not only did Caestus run the game, they were a amazing story teller, ran a super fun session, had awesome intros and narratives and played the AI NPC so great I felt like I was in the opening scene of a SCIFI movie! I got more content done WITH character creation than in any previous 3 hour session and I play a LOT of rpg's. Will book again 100%! Do the same!

Additional details

How to prepare

Players should have a mic but do not need a webcam. Players should have a roll20 account and a discord account. Reading the rules ahead of time and having a character concept and your position in the House in mind are useful but can also be done during session 0.

What I provide

I will bring a roll20 account that lets me use maps, images and music, the core rules for ASIOAF and the Dragon's Hoard chronicle book. I am an experienced GM, but still new to Startplaying GMing.

Gameplay details

We will establish our Lines and Veils during Session 0. Westeros is a brutal, gritty world, but there's no need to dwell on the most unpleasant parts of it.
