Godshome
The Cataclysm & The War of the Lance
The current year for our Dragonlance campaign is set during 351 AC "After Cataclysm".
Inspired By Trampas Whiteman
In ages past, Godshome referred to two locations. First, there was the widely known City of Godshome, a place with temples devoted to most of Krynn’s major gods. Second, there was a beautiful hidden valley that only those chosen by the gods could find.

Located within the Khalkist Mountains near the heart of the Dark Knight-controlled lands of Neraka, both Godshomes are mystic sites all but forgotten by the peoples of modern-day Ansalon. At the center of the valley was a depression in the shape of a perfect circle. It was surrounded by 21 shapeless boulders which represented the major gods. The bottom of the depression consisted of such polished black rock that it appeared to be a pool of water at first glance.

Regardless of the time of day or weather conditions, the constellations and moons of Krynn’s sky would be present in the black surface. An avatar of the god would appear on the constellation that represented him or her, and provide the petitioner with guidance. Invariably, the god’s message would be short and cryptic, and once it had been delivered, another pass would open elsewhere in the steep cliffs, allowing departure from the valley.
