Barejando was the main mind in charge of Xoria’s military during the Second Alliance War. He had a keen tactical mind and was a exemplary physical soldier as well. He served King Jevaninada II loyally, providing advice and aid whenever it was needed. Barejando fought alongside the King until the end of the Second Alliance War.

Barejando was born during the reign of King Jevaninada I. He was the third son of his family and of common stock. The military provided an escape from poverty and from his abusive parents. He joined the Xorian army and served in the brigade units under Queen Anajakaze. He followed orders loyally and reported dissent quickly to his superiors. He seemed to be a man with no concern for his own position within the Amazon gynocracy. His only principle was loyalty to the crown.

Barejando’s principles stayed consistent after King Jevaninada II’s rise to power. It didn’t matter that the new King had killed his mother and made a pact with an evil undead dragon. The only salient fact was that Jevaninada was the Xorian King and Barejando’s oaths were to the crown. Barejando continued his service in the brigade forces. His admirable loyalty and intelligence earned him promotion after promotion until he was noticed by Jevaninada. The King personally granted Barejando dragovinian status and made the soldier commander of the entire Xorian infantry.

Barejando continued his service as general during the Second Alliance War while occasionally joining Jevaninada on excursions to counter the activities of the Alliance War Council. Barejando succeeded in these excursions as often as he failed, but it became clear that he was the weakest member of the Xorian team. Barejando resigned himself to a position of support for the King. He stayed by his liege’s side through the final battle. Barejando died protecting his king moments before Jevaninada passed as well.

Welcome to the GoCorral website! I’m Isaac Shaker and this is a place for me to write about D&D and occasionally other topics. I host a podcast called Setting the Stage that interviews different DMs about their campaigns. I’m currently focused on completing the Cimmeria campaign setting and turning it into a book.

Setting the Stage Podcast

71 – Aaron Ryan and Dissonance/The End Setting the Stage, Campaigns for D&D and Other RPGs

I talked with Aaron Ryan about two of his book series, Dissonance and The End.Dissonance is a near future world where aliens have attacked, killing most humans and animals on Earth and driving humans into hiding underground. Humans finally develop technology to fight back and the war enters a new stage while the characters also struggle to determine the motivation for the alien invasion and nefarious actions of the government.The End is a Christian End Time series based loosely on the events described in Revelations. A man calling himself Nero has risen to rule over the world and he has outlawed Christianity. Robots called Guardians hunt Christians throughout the world, murdering them on the spot if they don't recant their faith. A resistance movement works in the shadows against Nero, but things aren't looking good for them.We talked about the basics of those settings along with how they could be adapted for RPG campaign settings. My main recommendations were Ashes Without Number, Spire, and Blades in the Dark.If you're interested in reading Aaron's books you can find them at most any bookstore or library. Both of the series are also being adapted into movies, but aren't publicly available yet. Aaron's website is https://authoraaronryan.com/ for the latest updates on his work. Next up for Aaron is the Talisman series that covers events within the "Aaronverse" in the decades between Dissonance and The End.Our website: https://gocorral.com/stsWant to be on the show?
