DRAGONLANCE® Classics, Volume 3 - Free

At this point, give each of the players one of
the following rumors, determined randomly:
1. The elves of Silvanesti passed through
this place a few years ago. There weren’t
many at first, but the numbers increased.
Many believe the elves were leaving their
homeland.
2. Since the Cataclysm, none except the
elves of Silvanesti themselves dare cross the
borders of that elven kingdom with hope of
returning among living men.
3. Dragon Orbs, fabled and magical devices
of great power, still exist. One of them is
located in the Ice Wall far to the south, and
one is said to be located in Silvanesti.
4. Dragon Orbs were said to be able to control
dragons. With these devices, the war now
being waged might well be won in a single
blow!
5. There are draconians, emissaries of the
Dragon Highlords, who daily attend the city
council’s meetings and advise caution and
restraint.
6. Alhana Starbreeze, princess of Silvanesti
and daughter of the Speaker of Stars, has
recently arrived here in search of aid. She is
trying to hire mercenaries to mount an expedition
to her homeland. The city council
turned down her petition. No one has seen
her since.
7. The Silvanesti realms to the east were
the most beautiful in Krynn. Great and marvelous
was their magic and their craft.
8. A gold dragon was seen flying over Silvanesti
just after the elves departed. Some
believe that the gold dragon lives there now.
(FALSE RUMOR)
9. There were many Dragonlances, but only
one had the power to rid the world forever of
evil. This was Huma’s Lance, which was given
to the Speaker of Stars to keep.
10. It is said that he who casts coins from
his purse into the river the elves call Thon-
Thalas will see his own future reflected in its
surface.

After distributing the rumors, continue by
reading the following aloud:
Your musings are suddenly shattered. A
distant blast of thunder shakes dust from
the beams above. More explosions follow
in rapid succession, each blast coming
nearer to you. Hurrying to the window, you
see a terrible sight. Driven wild by panic,
people clog the streets. Hundreds of draconians
are gliding into the courtyard beyond.
Suddenly the roof above you explodes!
Within two melee rounds, 1d6+4 Baaz draconians
rush the door of the inn from the outside.
Every five rounds thereafter, an additional
2d6 Bozak draconians join them. The
draconians are hindered in their attacks by
the fires and chaos generated by the dragons.
Therefore, they are limited to a movement of
6 while still in the city.
