Wizards of the Coast
Dark Sun
No law rules the blasted wastes of Athas, except the laws carved by blades or shaped by magic. Civilized realms suffer under the oppressive rule of sorcerer-kings. Will you rise up, with allies to guard your back and your water? Or will the scorched lands under the dying sun claim yet another band of fools?

The Dark Sun campaign setting will be available in 2010.

The Crimson Legion
