Ranger’s Odyssey in particular is deeply connected to Dungeons & Dragons. Mara plays on Earth. Mara plays in Ambergrove. Her love of the game proved she was meant for that life. She used her experiences from the game as she learned to live in Ambergrove. Additionally, the adventures Mara has through her trials in Ranger’s Odyssey are reminiscent of D&D adventures.
Dawn of the Dragonwolf
The first companion book of Ambergrove is a D&D core book and adventure combo. All character creation and play information needed to make an Ambergrovian character and go on an Ambergrovian adventure is included, along with three playable adventures from Ranger’s Odyssey.

Adventurer’s Guide
First edition published March 2025!
Now that Ambergrove has entered its Fourth Age, there are so many new and fantastical elements to the world that would apply to a D&D game. As much of these rules in the Fourth Age remain the same throughout, this book is a full core book for Ambergrovian gameplay.
This book includes:
- foundational information about the world
- the 7 current playable races
- the 9 classes and their subclasses
- equipment and special items
- spells
- companion creatures, NPCs, and other beings
- a dozen playable characters from the first two series
A second edition of this full core book is planned after a few more novels are published and the other foundational elements are established canon. A QR code in the first edition will allow players to download free updates as supplements to their book once the second edition has been published (expected by 2030), after the Hammer and Flame trilogy and the first standalone novel are available (after three more novels).
Additional premade player characters and adventures will be available for download from the Playable Characters and Adventures tab.

As these formats are being purchased, we're noticing some minor printing and formatting errors with the triskele image behind chapter titles and section headers. In the paperback version, sometimes the triskele is lower than it's supposed to be. In the ebook version, the triskeles are usually removed, but they have been retained for this ebook. They just aren't behind the headers. Sometimes they are before the header and sometimes after. None of this affects readability, but it can be jarring. Apologies for the formatting oddities. They will remain through the first edition of the book, but we hope to be able to correct them in the second edition in a few years.
Additionally, some of the retailer listings eliminated paragraphing. We're working on getting the listings corrected; they should match the text on the back cover of the book.
