Elerie

Elerie was a sergeant in the Rebellion military put in charge of the reformed dragovinians, Gregor, Sivirdm, Stanton, and Wu Lang Li. She was of elvish descent and had training in combat prior to joining the Rebellion. Unfortunately, keeping watch over the former dragovinians proved too much. When the opportunity presented itself, they killed her to escape her control.

Elerie guided the former dragovinians from the beginning. She took them to their first meeting with Major Dactirian. At that meeting Dactirian gave her the activation amulet for the former dragovinians’ shock collars. Elerie trained her charges for fighting with the Rebellion before they went on their first mission to speak with the wolves north of Bigby’s Forest. The wolves were hostile and the group barely escaped with their lives due to the assistance of Stevie the Wonder Wagon.

Elerie continued to oversee the former dragovinians during a series of adventures to secure food for the Rebel army. During one of these escapades she was knocked unconscious and Stanton threw away the activation amulet for their shock collars. Elerie came around again, but when she began to attack to reclaim the amulet, Gregor knocked her out once more. The former dragovinians completed the mission to steal supplies from the Xorians, but not without enchanting one of the Xorian soldiers to execute Elerie while she was unconscious.

The murder of Elerie convinced Major Dactirian that a proper ethical code could not be imposed on the former dragovinians. While their memories were gone, they retained the same evil personalities that had led the to become dragovinians in the first place. With little to offer them in the way of positive reinforcement, Dactirian forced them to reclaim the pieces of the Druid’s Prophecy before setting them free.

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?
