Reggy was a simple human miner until his mining town was destroyed by a giant. He survived, but slavers came through the rubble and captured him. They took Reggy downriver and sold him to a passing group of travelers, Gregor, Korjak, Sivridm, Stanton, and Wu. He joined on their adventures, fighting alongside them until he’d earned his freedom. Unfortunately, soon afterwards he was slain by a demon. The group pooled their resources and reincarnated Reggy as a centaur.

Reggy grew up in an abusive family of Xorian villagers. He ran away from home as a teenager and lived on the street, stealing to survive. Eventually he heard of the mining settlement of Jevanicia. He headed there to make a fortune for himself with the plan of purchasing property after he’d earned a nest egg from the back-breaking mining work.

Reggy worked in the mine for a few years until Jevanicia was destroyed by the rampage of Bill the geriviar. Reggy survived in the ruins of the town caring for his injured friends. Soon, slavers came and put Reggy in chains. He was taken downriver and sold to Gregor, Korjak, Sivirdm, Stanton, and Wu as they passed by.

The crew of Rebels became like a new family for Reggy. His good humor made him an almost equal companion with them. He helped with camp chores, but also with fighting during their adventures which gained him their respect as well. The group agreed to split their treasure with Reggy after a big find. This allowed him to buy his freedom. Feeling happy with the life they were leading, Reggy elected to continue to adventure with them of his own free will.

Sadly, Reggy’s next adventure would lead to his death. After uncovering the final piece of the Druid’s Prophecy the Rebel group was attacked by the Dahak monster. Reggy fought alongside the god, Baldr, to defeat the monster but failed. He was slain in the combat. After the Dahak left, the others retrieved Reggy’s body. They brought his preserved corpse back to civilization and reincarnated him as he’d wished. The magic returned Reggy to life in the body of a centaur.

Gregor, Sivirdm, and Korjak left the Rebellion and Reggy went along with them. Unfortunately, their travels east led through the wetlands of Demeter’s Garden. Reggy’s new equine form could not follow easily. Rather than slow them down, Reggy chose to go his own way. He bid farewell to his friends and went west to Makotako. He opened a combination farrier and boxing gym with the funds from his adventuring where he lives a peaceful, happy life.

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?
