Ruins of Symbaroum – The Throne of Thorns II

Within The Throne of Thorns II The capital city of Yndaros is descending into chaos amid preparations for a royal wedding; deadly conspiracies that threaten to plunge the Davokar region into all-out war; the most perilous and decisive wilderness expedition in Ambrian history – experience all this and more as the epic quest for the legendary Throne of Thorns continues!

Ruins of Symbaroum for 5E

Ruins of Symbaroum invites you to join in the adventure! Explore the vast Forest of Davokar in the hunt for treasure, lost wisdom and fame. Visit the barbarian clans to trade or to plunder their treasuries. Establish a base of power among princes, guilds or rebellious refugees in the capital city of Yndaros. Or survive encounters with arch trolls, dark-minded blight beasts and undead warlords. But whatever you do, never ignore the warnings spoken by the wardens of the forest: tread carefully and do not disturb the ruins of old, for the darkness of Davokar is about to awaken…

With the Ruins of Symbaroum game line, the acclaimed setting of Symbaroum comes to the world’s most popular roleplaying game. Symbaroum emphasizes survival, tough choices, and the inherent dangers of a forest said to stir ancient evil.

A significant addition to the 5E system is a corruption system where characters can accumulate corruption points, leading to permanent marks on their character and introducing a new layer of risk, particularly when using magic.
