[QUOTE="Rilvar, post: 5394697, member: 67519"] SPOILERS: (As in this whole thread is basically nothing but spoilers, so no player should read past this, and that's enough for the spoiler warnings)... So I'm finally almost wrapping up my current campaign, an Age of Worms 4E conversion (and I can't say how much I look forward to not having to convert WOTBS!) and getting ready to start my new one with WOTBS. As part of the transition, I'd like to add some foreshadowing / links into my current campaign that will spill over into the next. As it is I've already mentioned Ragesia / Emperor Coaltongue (who's in the process of conquering Latia at the moment), the Torch, and a few other things. However, what I would really like to foreshadow is the Trillith, but based on everythign I've read I still don't really understand the whole backstory behind how they were created, WHAT they are, and how I might tweak it to my setting. I understand they are the sort of dream manifestations of the dragon Trilla who is imprisoned in the Underdark, why are Trilla's dreams getting manifested in the first place? Who is Trilla, how does this dragon tie in with the other ancient dragons involved? Are the Trillith tied to any other part of the world's ancient history? I ask this because I'm considering expanding the Trillith in a sort of philosophical delving extra-reality dimension in my setting and I want to make sure I don't tweak anything that is tied to the adventures. Appreciate any help! [/QUOTE]
