[QUOTE="Hexmage-EN, post: 8517282, member: 79428"] The first Tal'dorei Campaign Setting is set before the end of Campaign One of Critical Role, at around the year 811. This new book is set twenty-five years later, just after the end of Campaign Two, and both describes changes that have happened to certain locations in the past two decades, adds more detail to them, and includes brand new content. Some of the most major changes in terms of the setting's lore is that in the 25 years since the first campaign: [LIST] [*]One of the two warring criminal syndicates in the region, the Clasp, has enjoyed a much improved public image due to the organization helping protect the citizens of the captial city during its occupation by the red dragon called the Cinder King. Clasp members now cooperate at times with the ruling council and serve as informants, while their rival the Myriad has become even more brutal and cutthroat in contrast. [*]Following the devastation caused throughout the continent by a cabal of dragons called the Chroma Conclave a number of enterprising magic users founded the League of Miracles, selling their services and constructs to accomplish thirty years' worth of rebuilding in three years time. However, even the seized hordes of the slain dragons were not enough to pay off the League of Miracles, and now the republic is in debt to the league, whose true goal is to usurp control of the continent and provides protection to the practiticioners of evil magics as well. [*]The city of Whitestone, which featured prominently in Campaign One of Critical Role, has doubled in size and has went from a remote city-state to a major power player in the politics of the republic at large. [*]A number of races that were portrayed in unflattering terms in the original book are now welcomed in civilization. The formerly majority orc and goblinoid faction known as the Ravangers now has members of many races, including elves. On the other hand, the majority goblinoid civilization of Tz'Arrm is given more detail than the first book, and it is pretty much a society of traditionally Lawful Evil hobgoblin tyrants. [/LIST] For those that care, there's also sections on the heroes of Campaign One, Vox Machina, that details what's happened to them in the decades since their adventuring days came to an end.
