The Dungeons and Dragons brand (o Dungeons and Dragonsas we know it in Spain) is enjoying a new golden age of popularity, thanks in large part to the push that TV hits such as Stranger Things have had, or the impending film Dungeons and Dragons: Honor Among Thieves, which opens this Friday on the movie billboard.
But what has always sustained the name has been the role-playing game that millions of people still play around a table and the old fashioned way (although they now have new tools like One D&D), and Wizard of the Coast wants more players to have access to the vast and endless world of the Forgotten Realms by making the volumes, manuals and campaign guides available to them in Spanish. And now he’s announced three of those new books that are coming this year.
It is a reference manual and two adventures for players. The collection titled Treasure of the Fizban Dragons is a guide to these majestic and deadly creatures with dragon-themed lair maps and a bestiary for players. Ideal for harnessing the unique powers of dragon magic.
Then there is the campaign Journeys through the Radiant Citadelwhich includes thirteen short, self-contained D&D adventures with challenges for characters from levels 1 to 14. The latest announced volume is also the most recent in its original English version, Dragonlance: Shadow of the Dragon Queenwhich means the return of Takhisis, the Queen of Dragons, to the world of Krynn. He is a character known to those who have read the Dragonlance Chronicles, and an opponent that only the strongest and bravest can defeat. His armies of draconian fanatics wage a brutal campaign of conquest across the land, which unfolds during the legendary War of the Lance. This D&D adventure lets players create Krynn characters and march with them at the forefront of battle against the terrifying Dragonarmies.
Fizban’s Dragons’ Treasure goes on sale May 12, while Viajes por la Citadel Radiante goes on sale in September, and
Dragonlance: Shadow of the Dragon Queen will do so in November.
