Designed for Game Masters and players, the new TTRPG campaigns are set in the world of Arisea and draw directly from the events of the “Chronicles.” These immersive adventures are offered as a free resource on https://www.thechroniclesofhadur.com/, giving fans a new way to experience the saga and step into its richly imagined realm.

The first campaign, “The Staff of Amdren: Part 1 – The Iron Box,” is a standalone adventure designed to be played in a single session lasting approximately 6 to 9 hours. Additional installments – Parts 2 and 3 – are scheduled for release in summer 2026.
