About the adventure
Welcome to the blood-and-scale world of Ansalon — a land where every dragon’s roar echoes with either hope or ruin. You’re about to step into a saga where wyrms thunder, wizards channel raw arcana, and warriors carve their fates in molten metal and ash. This campaign will stretch from 1st level all the way through 15th (and perhaps beyond, if your story demands it). We’ll draw on official 5E material and mine the deep veins of the Dragonlance lore — specifically the original Dragonlance Chronicles trilogy (Dragons of Autumn Twilight, Dragons of Winter Night, and Dragons of Spring Dawning) — while immersing you directly into the heart of the War of the Lance. The War of the Lance isn’t just a backdrop — it’s the crucible. You will stand in Ansalon’s shadowed forests and charred plains, shoulder to shoulder with knights, mages, and renegade heroes against the tyrannical dragon-lords led by the dread Takhisis. Their goal: conquest, subjugation, a reign of fire over hope. Your objective: something far tougher — to say No. You will take on the mantle of heroism: a blade-wielder forged in the furnace of duty, a spell-caster whose power hums in the midnight sky, or a knight whose oath still gleams under Ashen Moon. Each of you will have strengths, scars, and choices that matter. Expect fear. Expect triumph. Expect sorrow and unexpected alliances. You will face dragons with molten breath and monsters birthed from nightmares. You will gain artifacts older than empires that whisper secrets in your ear. But more than that, you will form bonds — not just of convenience, but of blood and memory and purpose. Your choices will tilt the scales of this world’s fate. If you’re seeking a game that immerses you in mythic struggle, where your decisions ripple through the world long after the dice stop rolling — then this is your gateway. Led by Zesty’s experienced hand, you will journey through Ansalon’s battered lands, you will battle darkness, you will claim treasures, you will befriend broken souls. The world’s balance trembles, and it’s up to you to steady it — or let it shatter. Rise, heroes. Write your legend. In the world of Dragonlance — specifically within the Chronicles and the War of the Lance — freedom has a price — and it begins now. We will start with the first 4, Beginning with Dragons of Despair remade for 5th edition! But I would like to run them all to level 20 if everyone is down!

About me
Hey everyone! My names Blair, my handle though is Sands and thats what everyone calls me! I've been an avid gamer for 24 years now. I started at 15 in High School. Mostly as an escape and to have a safe space to be myself. It then blossomed into a love of storytelling and character development. I am Queer and Non Binary. And I want to give safe spaces out to any who need them and generally support myself doing something I love and sharing that with anyone who wants/needs it! I am also founder and lead writer for Sanguine Horizons, a small gaming company. We just started streaming our games. And I offer discounted game prices for those who subscribe to Sanguine Horizons Patreon page that helps that business! My goal and dream is to publish my own Homebrew World of El'thea into its own Campaign Setting/Splat book either for a game system we come up with or for one of the many amazing systems we play! I am also very happy to provide details on my two negative reviews and the reason those players were removed/quit.
