Game Setup
Last time on DL3 Dragons of Hope: The heroes made their way to the heart of the honeycomb and took out the Royal Jelly and the comb for food the refugees desperately needed. The excursion did not go without consequence, as the Neidar were getting really put up with the Council of Freedom and their refugees. It nearly came to blows when the party finally returned. Clarifying that they were collecting the Royal Jelly and not abandoning the refugees, the chieftain rewards the heroes for the jelly and gifts Flint with gifts due to his noble ancestry. The council is pretty fed up as they continue to lose refugees so they head out immediately and stay the night in the wilderness, losing even more bodies. In the morning they can clearly see the dragonarmy is clear of Pax Tharcas and on the march, and they are moving at a rapid pace! The heroes nearly fall off a frozen waterfall as they backtrack to find a way through the mountains and end up in a canyon filled with mist. Then they see Verminaard atop Ember. They strafe the caravan killing the refugees with fire and turn on the heroes, dropping many of them in flames as well. As Verminaard flew off in triumph the heroes raced to find Elistan and a spectre appeared in the fog shrouded canyon.
About DL3 Dragons of Hope
The Dragonlance saga continues!
You have freed 800 refugees from the depths of Pax Tharkas, but now the armies of the dragon highmaster Verminaard pursue you through the wilderness. There is only one hope for you: Find the gates to Thorbardin, the ancient kingdom of the mountain dwarves, sealed long ago in the Dwarfgate War. The problem is that nobody knows where it is, or if it still exists!
Through the snow-covered Kharolis Mountains, across the Dergoth Plain, haunted by the ghosts of ancient armies, and to the incredible mountain known as Skullcap, you search for the answer that will save the refugees of Pax Tharkas—and yourself!
“Dragons of Hope” is the exciting third part of the First Book of Dragonlance, an epic quest through the world of Krynn, threatened by the domination of the inhuman draconians. This adventure can be played as part of a separate adventure, or as part of the great quest that spans the entire Dragonlance story.
An adventure for characters level 6th-8th. Written by Tracy Hickman.
