When the Storms of Chaos rage¸ even gods seek safe harbor.' -Augury readings in Palanthas¸ 383 AC (Anonymous) Krynn swelters in the grip of unnatural heat - a summer so dry and scorching the very world seems ready to burst into flame. Across this baked landscape¸ Lord Ariakan's armies of Dark Knights sweep unchecked. Finally¸ the great city of Palanthas¸ the jewel in Ansalon's crown¸ awaits the onslaught of unstoppable legions. In Seeds of Chaos¸ players have their choice of roles: The proud Knights of Takhisis¸ dark paladins who have sworn a blood oath to their lord. Adhering to strict codes of honor and discipline¸ they lead the attack against the pristine Palanthas; or Defenders drawn from the populace of that imperiled city¸ waging the battle with whatever tools and tactics come to hand. In either case¸ the characters ultimately learn of their true enemy - a horde of chaos creatures lurking unseen beyond the northern horizon¸ poised to render every wordly conflict obsolete. Seeds of Chaos uses the AD&D game rules and provides information suitable for running the adventure using the SAGA rules as well. It is the start of a new adventure series that details the epic battles of the Chaos War¸ described in the novel Dragons of Summer Flame by Margaret Weis and Tracy Hickman. This series can serve as a stand-alone campaign or as a crossover to introduce classic DRAGONLANCE players to the current FIFTH AGE setting.
