A new era of draconic rule
The Dragon King has returned and threatens to usher forth a new era of draconic rule, one in which dragons shall not confine themselves to the Firelands but shall usher forth to claim dominion over all the world of Talisman . Only a handful of characters possess the strength, skill, and courage necessary to venture forth to defeat the Dragon King and claim the Crown of Power. But before they face the Dragon King in his chamber atop his tower, they will need to understand the draconic threat.
