Game Setup
Last time on DL3 Dragons of Hope: The heroes are forced to face off against a spectre as Sturm rushes to find Elistan. It is defeated but only after taking 2 levels from Flint! As the Dragonarmy continues its occupation, spreading through the Khalkists, the heroes rush into an outpost mine. This was an area once inhabited by Thorbardin, but now it seemed abandoned. They crawled the vast caverns with no sign of life, the refugees all rushing in behind them. They explored a few offshoot tunnels before discovering the Court of the Thanes in a city now occupied by Phulph Clan Aghar. THye meet with the Aghar Highphulph who shows off his secret treasure though he doesn’t know how to operate it. Flint discovers they can learn three secrets and learns the entrance to Thorbardin is somewhere in the south, and they should go to Skullcap to find the exact location. With a confirmed direction, they collect some food and head south. As they navigate the canyons, they lose more refugees and come across Fizban building a snow fort and a mound of snowballs! He asks them to fight as dragonarmy troops come rushing toward them triggering an avalanche. They all rush into the fort and in the aftermath collect up the now dead draconians short swords for the fighting refugees.
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.
