Top Three Most Underused Locations in Dragon Pass

Posted on September 10, 2024

With Dragon Pass coming out next month, here’s my three favorite underused locations for adventure in Dragon Pass:

Old Vampire Cave. Right smack dab in the middle of Sartar, this foreboding location just screams Entry to Adventure! Who knows what is there? A long empty Vivamort shrine, a vampire exiled from the Upland Marsh, the nucleus of a new Vivamort temple? But with Jonstown just a few hours away, it seems prime for investigation!

Dinosaur Graveyard. It is where the dinosaurs come to die – why? What secrets might it hold about dinosaurs or even about the dragons?

Forest of Wondrous Beasts. A stag king, a herd of unicorns, and other unique magical beasts. Should be irresistible to any hunter cultist or to any Orlanth Adventurous devotee worth their salt!

Details on these and countless more locations coming your way in October!

A few runners up:

  • Trade Think Theatre. Here’s your chance to communicate with a dragonewt Full Priest. Who knows what secrets the dragonewt might pass on – cosmic mysteries, recipes for preparing demibird meals, how to command newtlings?
  • Falling Ruins. Magic ladders, objects from the sky, a great temptress, and a regular Puppeteer theatre? Sign me up!
  • Goranthal. Only human village in Dwarf Run. Want to get hired by the dwarfs to do some task? Here’s your best chance – wages are generous, even if the duties can be a little… onerous … at least for humans.

Does this book include information on Esrolia too? Given that the title of the book is Dragon Pass, any information about Esrolia is pretty peripheral to the main focus of the book.
