Silver: Jimarohzaj and Falron

Jimarohzaj and Falron were twin sister and twin brother hegemons of the silver dragons. They ruled in the Eastern Terror Mountains of Cimmeria. During the draconic occupation of Cimmeria the pair interbred with the different humanoid races and many half-dragon offspring populated their dominion. The twins were affectionate towards their humanoid and dragon children and encouraged them to work together. The humanoids often rode on the backs of their full-blooded cousins.

This familial partnership proved immensely useful during the Dragon War. The silver dragon flight’s synergistic combat style challenged the Dragon War Heroes at every turn. The flight was led by Jimarohzaj and the mysterious Dragon Rider with a winged helmet. The raids of the silver dragon flight were so devastating that many civil authorities considering surrendering and ending their support of the Dragon War Heroes. Tentineh organized a response and the Heroes managed to surprise the silver dragon twins. Falron was imprisoned in the Silver Dragon Orb and Jimarohzaj was set to guard him. The Dragon Rider escaped into the Dominarie Mountains and was never found.

The Silver Dragon Orb was stored at Greshendale. Tentineh entered stasis to return when the Orb was broken. The Orb remained at Greshendale until the city’s fall during the Second Alliance War. Talon the Cerebremancer of Greshendale retrieved the Silver Orb and used it in his resistance movement against the dragovinians. After the Second Alliance War concluded he kept the Orb and disappeared into the Terror Mountains with Jimarohzaj.

Brass: Forsoman and Hazorshrakan

Forsoman was the father of his daughter Hazorshrakan. Together they ruled the Orc Lands of Cimmeria. They created many half-dragon children with the goblins in the Orc Lands, but rarely interbred with the orcs. One of their goblin children, Blackheart, was influenced by Shratalanda to provide motivation for Amalgami and Toffoun during the Dragon War. The heroic pair were forced to form an army to defeat Blackheart’s army. This mortal army earned the ire of the dragons and was one of the inciting incidents of the dragon war.

The brass dragons were one of the first to fall at the start of the Dragon War. Hazorshrakan was imprisoned within the Brass Dragon Orb and Forsoman was set as her guard. The Orb was then used to control the brass dragon to fight on the side of the Dragon War Heroes. After the war Shratalanda built a hidden dungeon deep within the Aractrashan Jungle. She placed psionic guardians and traps around the dungeon which would drive people away by trickery or by force. This dungeon housed the Brass Orb of Dragonkind. Shratalanda entered stasis to return when the Orb was broken.

Copper: Blathorwa and Thaionzao

Blathorwa was the mother of her son Thaitonzao. Together they ruled the lands between the Black River and the Great Divide. The area was sparsely populated at the time, but the copper dragons enjoyed the natural beauty of their domain.

Blathorwa and Thaitonzao fought together during the Dragon War alongside their cousins. In time they fell to an assault where the Dragon War Heroes used the Orbs of Dragonkind to control the white, black, and brass dragons. Blathorwa was imprisoned within the Copper Orb and Thaitonzao was set to guard his mother.

The Copper Orb was initially entrusted to Bigby. Unfortunately he was captured by Eathirilu during the fighting in the Dry Woods. Before he was imprisoned, Bigby used the Copper Orb to warn the other Heroes of the Dragon War that an attack was coming. With preparations in place, the Heroes were able to drive back the assault, free Bigby, and reclaim the Copper Dragon Orb.

At the conclusion of the Dragon War Amalgami designed an aquatic dungeon to safeguard the Copper Orb in the swamps of Demeter’s Garden. The entire dungeon existed in the muck and slime beneath the surface of the vast marsh. Amalgami worked with the other Heroes and incorporated elements from each of the other dungeons in the defense of his dungeon. Additionally, he protected the final chamber with a set of doors that could only be opened by a few riddles of Amalgami’s own creation. With his work complete the Lightning Knight entered stasis, only to return when the Copper Orb was broken.

86 – Wuxia Adventures in RPGS (Daniel and Metanoia/Ithasen) Setting the Stage, Campaigns for D&D and Other RPGs

I interviewed Daniel, my cohost of the Tabletop Community Spotlight! Daniel created his own setting called Ithasen with an in-progress wuxia TTRPG system called Metanoia to go along with it. Ithasen has a spiritual force known as Ren that pervades the world. Ren is a magical manifestation of the user's, or Rennim's, will upon the universe. Rennim that cultivate their will grow stronger and capable of more amazing feats as the concentrate their power and force of personality.Within Ithasen there are seven lineages of people that decide what type of Ren they can use. Anamor use conversion Ren. Elkyr use flux Ren. Janim use elasticity Ren. Nyl use influence Ren. Okoi use recurrence Ren. Haqol use harmony Ren. Finally, Daruner use use coalescent ren. The two races lineages that drive unique politics in Ithasen are the Daruner and the Haqol.Daruner children absorb the Ren talents of both their parents, becoming a perfect blend of Daruner and another lineage parent. Through this mixing, a Daruner family could potentially include all other lineages within itself. This power has placed Daruner as the nobility of Ithasen.Haqol's power of harmony allows them to amplify the Ren powers of others. This puts Haqol in a vulnerable position as unscrupulous people will do anything to incorporate Haqol lineage into their bloodline. Haqol have experienced something akin to a genocide as their lineage has been consistently absorbed by other lineages and diluted over the centuries.There's a whole lot more than that so strap in!Daniel has a fully setup GitHub Wiki for information on Metanoia and Ithasen that you can explore.There's a Metanoid Discord server you can join to discuss the rules and setting with other fans.The occasional musing on TTRPGs can be found on Daniel's blog, Tabletop Discourse.GoCorral YouTube Channel for watching the Tabletop Community Spotlight.Vote in the CRIT Awards!
