DRAGONLANCE: SHADOW OF THE DRAGON QUEEN
Dungeons & Dragons 5e | Campaign
About the adventure
THE WORLD HAS ENDED, AND IT'S ENDING AGAIN. Three hundred years ago, the Cataclysm brought ruin to the world of Krynn. In a single day, an age of wonders came to an end. Countless innocents died, the face of the world was reshaped, and the gods themselves faded into legend. Through ages of struggle, the peoples of Krynn survived, but the world isn't what it was. Those nations that remain linger in the shadows of their ancestors' wonders. Only slowly have they begun to push back centuries of darkness and rediscover how the world has changed. Then came the Dragon Armies, legions of soldiers devoted to the wicked god Takhisis the Dragon Queen, and the world faces ruin once more. The War of the Lance has begun, and in a conflict between gods and dragons, a wounded world hangs in the balance. Can your team keep an eye on the Dragon Army as it searches the Northern Wastes for the City of Lost Names? Our heroes must find an artifact before the dreadful Lord Soth finds it and returns it to the Dragon Queen allowing her to re-enter the world and destroy Krynn as we know it.
Game style
Rule of Cool (RoC)
“Rule of Cool” emphasizes creative story beats over sticking to a system’s rules as written. Players have the ability to push the limits of the rules or even break core rule mechanics at times if the Game Master thinks it is interesting, fun, or cool enough.

Additional details
How to prepare
A computer or laptop is required along with a microphone and headphones. You should also have something ready to take notes, because there is a lot of information that is given during this campaign that will be needed as we get through it.
What I provide
I will provide all of the source materials including the required source books and the adventure book (all shared on the campaign sight). I will also bring a desire to make this a fun game. We will use the rule of cool for our gameplay, so if you area rules lawyer, you might need to take some valium before the game.
Gameplay details
We will use dndbeyond for our campaign location and dndbeyond maps for our VTT. The campaign link is https://www.dndbeyond.com/campaigns/join/6546394102376494. We will also use discord for our voice channel. Once you have created your character, please contact me for the link to the discord server.

How will character creation work
Copy and paste this link into your browser: https://www.dndbeyond.com/campaigns/join/6546394102376494. This will take you to the campaign site and you will create your character there. We will be starting at LEVEL 6. We will ONLY use the 2024 Player's Handbook for our source. There are some rules for character creation, however. You can only select from the following species: Human, Elf, Half-Elf, Dwarf, Gnome and Kender. If you would like to play an artificer class, you MUST be a Gnome. When you are creating your character, uncheck all of the top listing except Expanded Rules. Then uncheck ALL for Partnered Content. You may check Optional Class Features and Customize Your Origin. We will use Milestone for character advancement. Keep all the rest of the default settings. DO NOT ROLL for stats. Only use Standard Array or Point Buy. If you have any questions, feel free to message me.
