Are there any major dragon overlords left in krynn or are there just a bunch of minor ones battling it out for dominance?

Help me out here!

Frost still holds sway in Southern Ergoth.

All of the major overlords except for the white are dead, what about the minor?

Most of the dragonlords are still living, apart from Iyesta and Stendunnuus, who are dead. This may change, of course.

So the only good dragon lord has perished? Why did only one good one become a lord?

Because it usually involved killing other dragons and draining their life forces to acquire more power. The land-grabbing of the Dragon Purge wasn't very popular with the good dragons.

Were many good dragons killed in the Purge? They at least had the Dragon Isles to flee too, but what about the chromatics?

You've read the books, right? I'm not really revealing anything new here. Dawning of a New Age and the Fifth Age boxed set both talk a lot about this subject.

Read Lake of Death, by Jean Rabe, for the fate of Sable.

Tie this into the cryptic lead in for the third module in the KoD series and this really makes me scarred. I read that snippet on Amazon.com, and thought to myself Ok, my players should be 14th maybe 15th by then, but the overlords are something like a CR 26, thats insane!

I hope that is the case, cause it would be nice and epic, and good old wholesome dragon killing fun.

Falling into a vat of acid would cause you to be scarred as well. Likewise, seeing your best friend's grandmother naked would also scar you for life, though in an emotional sense. You would be scared senseless. :D

This Spelling Police moment brought to you by the letter A, for aggravated assault. On me that is.

"Gangsta". *DUCKS!*

(And dont' even get me started on slang that replaces the "-er" with an "a".)

Kalanth, put the machete down... :D

You know the apostrophe goes before the t and not after it, right?

And this, folks, is what we call poetic justice. ;) (Stupid typo...)

We should probably get back to topic before the Board Police get upset.
