About DL3 Dragons of Hope
The Dragonlance saga continues!
You have freed 800 refugees from the depths of Pax Tharkas, but now the armies of the dragon highmaster Verminaard pursue you through the wilderness. There is only one hope for you: Find the gates to Thorbardin, the ancient kingdom of the mountain dwarves, sealed long ago in the Dwarfgate War. The problem is that nobody knows where it is, or if it still exists!
Through the snow-covered Kharolis Mountains, across the Dergoth Plain, haunted by the ghosts of ancient armies, and to the incredible mountain known as Skullcap, you search for the answer that will save the refugees of Pax Tharkas—and yourself!
“Dragons of Hope” is the exciting third part of the First Book of Dragonlance, an epic quest through the world of Krynn, threatened by the domination of the inhuman draconians. This adventure can be played as part of a separate adventure, or as part of the great quest that spans the entire Dragonlance story.
An adventure for characters level 6th-8th. Written by Tracy Hickman.

Thank you for watching todays Dragonlance Mail Time episode. Have you played DL3 Dragons of Hope? Would you watch a live stream of it being played? Leave a comment below!
Talk about "tripping on a hole in a paper heart." My favorite song by Stone Temple Pilots. I can't wait to watch the Live Cast. Hugh, 4 sessions. How long usually is a session ?
Live stream of it, definitely YES!!
I played the Dragonlance modules from 1 to 6 or 7 in the late 80s as a teenager. In the next month, I’ll be DMing from DL1 onwards (converted to 5e) with a group of 6 PCs. Not using the original characters, but a few like Goldmoon, Riverwind, Kit and others will be NPCs….
"Inhuman draconians". You can hardly get more iconically Dragonlance than Draconians. The Draconians appeared even before dragons or lances in Dragonlance books. This module would have been an awesome tie in with a module about Kang's regiment. Imagine actually getting to play D&D as draconians finding female draconian eggs. The story is practically begging to be a module – or a sequel movie to the inevitable Dragonlance trilogy movies.
This was one of the best modules! The idea of being responsible for 800 refugees on the run, some of which are dying from the elements every day was brilliant. By this point the players were starting to feel invincible but this gave them real stakes and an urgency that made it a lot of fun.
I have been watching Audio Videos of the Original 3 Books with effects lasting close to 3 hours to really get back into this and thats looks so fun Adam. Another great find.
I’ve checked for some of these on eBay, but find a lot of what seems to be unofficial reprint versions.
Great to see an original copy.
Are you looking to play this adapted into 5e or run it on 1st/2nd edition?
Currently running 8 players through 1st edition DL modules. Just started DL2. Love your DL content
Hahahahha, great packaging. I always enjoy it when it is a little bit of a challenge. The module is absolutely worth it.
