In July 1984, DL2: Dragons of Flame was published. Written by Douglas Niles, it was the second adventure in the Dragonlance Saga, an ambitious fourteen-part series of adventures that told a story about dragons returning to the world.

The first adventure from WanderLOST Adventures, The Storm Keep, presents a keep that is currently being plagued by a number of elemental manifestations. The wizard who lived there is lost, and his apprentices are trapped inside. It’s a nice little adventure, which shouldn’t take much more than a session to play through.

As is typical with these adventures, the formatting is poor, the maps are adequate, it would be nice to see better editing, but there are some good encounter ideas. The formatting problems really hit the first encounter, which explains the details of the PC’s … Continue reading 5E Adventure Review: The Poison Works
