Magical Places in Dragon Pass

Posted on December 13, 2021

There are several places in Dragon Pass where the boundary between the mundane world and the Godtime is permeable and easily crossed. A few of the more notables:

  • Hill of Orlanth Victorious
  • Kero Fin Shake Land
  • Wild Temple
  • Quivin Peak
  • Dragons Eye
  • Caves of Chaos
  • Castle of Lead
  • Tarndisi’s Grove
  • Dryad Woods and Forest of Wondrous Beasts
  • Arrowmound Peak

Many of these places have been centers of cult activity for centuries or even millennia. When you see them, you know that this is something wondrous and remarkable. Mortals gather at these places to interact with the Godtime, and spirits and gods can be easily contacted there.

Such magical locations have power comparable or greater than the greatest temples, even without the presence of the mortal worshipers. They are were great acts of Creation took place, where the world took its present form, or linger remnants of a world that otherwise died in the Great Darkness, or both.
