Dawn of Fire

         This is an epic campaign for the Dungeons & Dragons game which turns the game on its head. Rather than raiding dungeons to find the treasure of dragons, now humanity is fleeing to remote underground locations to survive in the face of a dragon plague. It draws on the post-apocalyptic genre: especially films like Reign of Fire and Dawn of the Dead, along with the Jeremiah series, the new Battlestar Galactica, and others. The focus will not be on dragonslaying specifically, though dragons will be a real threat. Rather, it will be on forging and protecting a community -- the last of humanity -- within the dungeons.
