Mharoti Empire Campaign: Resources Index

In a recent Twitch stream, Mike Shea of Sly Flourish mentioned his plans to set his next campaign in Kobold Press’ Midgard setting in the Dragon Empire. I’ve been slowly combing the my Warlock and Worldbooks from Kobold Press, and I love his campaign concept so I figured I might as well throw together an index of material that would be helpful for such a campaign. Below is a list of relevant sources on the Dragon Empire and surrounding regions. In addition to the outstanding resources in Kobold Press’ Warlock Grimoires, definitely don’t sleep on the outstanding content from its blog—which regularly produces publication quality content and lore that you can access for free.

Elemental Planes

Although they are not necessary for a Mharoti campaign, the Elemental planes of Midgard are closely tied to the Dragon Empire due to the elemental cults and magic there. The article below specifically mentions the Dragon Empire connection, but the articles on the other planes might be helpful as well.
