Throne of Thorns Announced For Ruins of Symbaroum 5E

Two new expansions are on the way for Free League‘s TTRPG Ruins of Symbaroum, and one is so big this isn’t even all of it. The new campaign book The Throme Of Thorns will be released in two halves — only Part 1 has been announced for release.

Let’s cover Throne of Thorns first. Part 1 is compatible with the 5E ruleset and the Ruins of Symbaroum core rulebooks (you’ll need one of them). The hardcover book will be over 200 pages long, pack lots of color illustrations, and contain the following:

• The two full-length adventures Wrath of the Warden and The Witch Hammer, for characters of levels 7–9.
• More than 20 color maps, detailing adventure locations in towns, forests, and ruins.
• Over 50 stat blocks, covering non-player characters of different types – monsters, potential allies or adversaries, as well as famous/notorious individuals.
• A dozen journey events that can be used to make the characters’ travels in the forest even more exciting.
• A dozen handouts to be used during play, offering important information for social challenges and problem-solving.

The World of Symbaroum, is an expansion of the lore found in the Gamemaster’s Guide and contains intricate details about seven adventure landscapes centered around ruins in the forest of Davokar, among other things.

• A player’s section, introducing the game world’s main settlements – Thistle Hold, Yndaros and Karvosti – in great detail.
• An in-depth look at the main settlements’ history, memorable events, factions, conflicts, and establishments.
• A Gamemaster’s section describing what hides beneath the surface, with 18 historical secrets and 34 plot hooks.
• Seven adventure landscapes for characters of 5th to 10th level, complete with conflicts, events, maps, and colorful NPCs.

Both The Throne Of Thorns Part 1 and The World of Symbaroum are open for pre-order at the Free League webshop. Those who put down cash will gain early access to digital advance PDFs of the books. They’re both scheduled for rele ase sometime this spring.
