Dragonlance is an old setting. It is traditionally considered a Fantasy world. One of the fathers of what we all consider the universal standard in fantasy gaming.
There are a few lands of importance to note and a few eras of note within Krynn.
There are a few eras of play that are important to note which are divided into Ages. Each Era will be covered in detail in it's relevant thread and section. The Story of Krynn is primarily set in Ansalon, which is a small continent.
The Age of Starbirth An era known only in myth and song and scripture, this is the time when Krynn and the stars were created.
The Age of Dreams A time of myth and legend, where the forces of good and evil clashed. Lessons were learned that were some times forgotten throughout the other later Ages.
The Age of Might The forces of good were dominate in this period, when civilization reached it's peak and evil was subjugated and or driven back. This era was also filled with tragic ignorance which had far reaching consequences which spelled the end of this Golden Era.
The Age of Despair Plague war and famine ruled this era. Peace could be one at the most terrible of costs, and yet this is an age of rediscovery where the people of the shattered land of Krynn reconnected with their gods.
