Book Hero Magic formatted this description to make it easier to read. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! Description

The islands of the Ghost Archipelago are covered in the ruins of ancient civilisations, but there is one group whose culture still thrives and whose power still grows – the Dricheans. Divided into many small kingdoms and city-states that wage near-constant war with snake-men, native tribes, and each other, the Dricheans are renowned for the gleaming bronze of their weapons and armour, and their martial prowess. Organised and militaristic, these formidable warriors pose a new threat to adventurers exploring the Lost Isles.

This supplement for Frostgrave: Ghost Archipelago examines the scattered realms of the Dricheans, presenting players with three new mini-campaigns featuring these bronze-armed warriors. Also included are additional rules for using Drichean Crew and Soldiers, as well as guidelines for creating your own Drichean kingdoms.
