About the adventure
Once upon a time, in the peaceful land of Whelvia, a powerful sorceress named Forlorne Lykona deceived the country’s great dragon warden to absorb his power and rule the kingdom herself. Transformed into a weredragon by the powerful ritual that fused the warden’s power with her cold heart, Forlorne now takes to the skies, feasting on all who challenge her and cursing innocent villagers to become ravenous weredrakes. The people called on the brave defenders of the realm, the Knights of Whelvia, to protect them—but the knights instead bent the knee to the draconic tyrant, allowing her to command their forces and leaving the land without protectors. In a Reign of the Weredragon campaign, you play destined heroes of Whelvia, rising up against Forlorne Lykona and her knights to save this once-idyllic land from the jaws of tyranny. Embrace your destiny, heal and unite the realm, make it personal, and remember who the villain is in this story that follows all the fairytale tropes you know and love. ~~~ TONE & FEEL Epic, Fairy Tale-Like, Grim, Hopeful THEMES Astrology, Fate Written in the Stars, Swords & Sorcery, Tyranny’s Rise and Fall TOUCHSTONES The Black Cauldron, Conan the Barbarian, For the Queen, The Little Mermaid, Sleeping Beauty, The Sword and the Sorcerer, The Wolfman

About me
We have all had that moment where we encountered something that sparked our interest in TTRPGs: catching a glimpse of a fantasy cover art, connecting with a heroic character arc in a film, getting caught up in the grand story of a video game – something that inspired us to say “I could do something like that!” For me, that moment came one afternoon ten years ago when, after numerous failed starts, I resolved that if no else was willing to take the DM’s chair, I’d just have to it myself. My whole life had led me to that moment and I haven’t looked back since. My name is J. Lawrence Kenny and in addition to a half decade of Dungeon Mastering, I hold a BFA in Theatre Performance and bring three decades of acting and storytelling experience to my table. Nothing brings me greater joy then when my party cheers, or gasps in horror, or let loose a string of expletives (or any combo of all three!) over a story moment I have spent hours devising just for them. Your characters will be personally tied into whatever is happening - their stories, their goals, will fuel and shape the events of the campaign. And, with a little luck, you will experience a complete character arc with a dramatic and satisfying conclusion…or at least be left with an interesting hook to carry onto the next adventure! At my table you will interact with memorable NPCs, explore unique and expansive worlds, and take center stage in compelling stories that will leave plenty of room for individuality and lateral thinking. Your character will always be the driving force; the underdog overcoming antagonists far beyond their limits, the everyman catapulted onto the stage of grand events, the hero who saves the world. The stories we create together will be far more interesting and fun than the stories we could create alone.
