Timothy Brown, award-winning co-creator of Dark Sun®, is returning to the savage world of Khitus with a brand-new edition of Dragon Kings, the spiritual successor to Dark Sun, built for 5.5E with conversion rules for 2E included. And he got the team back together.
Troy Denning. Brom. Bill Slavicsek. Rich Baker.
These veteran creators are coming together again for a world of blood and sand, dangerous sorcery, awakening psionics, scarce resources, strange peoples, and civilizations fighting over what remains after the Dragon Kings disappeared.
This new edition includes three new races, 15 new backgrounds, four new domains, five new subclasses, a brand-new Psionic class with three subclasses, new gear, 30+ new monsters, and more. You’ll also find rules for travel, Hope and Despair, the dangers of magic, and Sorcery’s Wrath.
Claim Your Prelaunch Rewards! If you follow the campaign before we launch, you'll receive this Despair Pin free with your pledge.
If you reserve your pledge for $5, we'll add this Hope Pin when you come back and pledge during the campaign.
Hope and Despair also have a role to play within Dragon Kings itself, with mechanics that can affect the world of Khitus. We’ll have plenty more to say about that soon.
Thank you for joining us this early. Over the next few weeks, we’ll be sharing artwork, preview, and a closer look at the people behind Dragon Kings.
