Just when I thought I had a good grasp on the arcane history of the 'DragonLance' mythology... (after 30+ years of playing D&D within the DL campaign world and reading many, many DL books)... you go and show me how little I actually know. For that, you owe me a beer or two...

Very well done. The orbs can do a lot that is so rarely talked about.

We never played directly in Dragonlance but our DMs were usually cool and let us play with these properties in whatever campaign. We usually played a generic Faerun but you could be a kender or whatever

People like to say that the "Dragonlance Chronicles" was DND's "Lord of the Rings." The Orbs are pretty close to not only the Palantari Seeing Stones, but also the Rings of Power themselves: they offer great power, but can screw you over if your will is too weak. Still, at least someone can master the Orbs without being mastered by them and reduced to a Wraith. The Orbs are a pretty cool idea. I was confused at first but then I realized the beauty of them. Being able to summon your enemy to a battlefield/death trap of your choice is a pretty handy tool. And the fact that they can also through other dragonkin for a loop is pretty handy, especially during the War of the Lance when Draconians became a thing.

Pretty sure Raistlin could have not won without the orb - but he didn't get that orb by chance. He is a very calculated person and has been searching for specific items such as Fistandantilus' spellbooks, the orb, the bloodstone etc. Raistlin's true power lies not in his phenomonal understanding of magic but in his intelligence and willpower.

Raistlin had his dragon orb on him when he went back in time to battle Fistandantalis? I didn't remember that. So two of the same orbs were in close proximity during the cataclysm? One on Raistlin the other being saved by Lorac. . . interesting.
@DLSaga3 жыл бұрын
Yea, it wasn't destroyed until the Drawrfgate Wars when Raistlin tried to use it in Zhaman.

the orb of dragonkind could be made into a super weapon a device built into a building that powers it up when ready to fire it causes all draconic life forms in the area to go into a blind rage attacking everything in sight even draconians and good and evil dragons also go into a blind rage

love your content!!! question: traps their souls?? like, what…you take it near any number of dragons whose color corresponds to the stone, say a magic word or something…and it kills all those dragons, like, within a certain radius or something?
@DLSaga2 жыл бұрын
Not exactly. It is portrayed as almost hypnotizing them so the orb wielder can kill or control them.

@@DLSaga alright my bad, had to check myself They're actually very vague about it, it's full color is never mentioned but its said to have a faint red mist among a myriad of other colors one single time so my bad. I guess I've just thought it was blue for almost 20 years, there was a lot of blue in the second book so I must've put it on the orb when they only vaguely describe it beyond its name 'Dragonorb'. It doesn't help that the revamped 2000s cover art has it be greenish white which also wasn't right; with the reader repeatedly being told Lorac's orb was green
