From the Core Book:

"The Drylands were a place that put the old stories aside. While superstitious miners have long said that the crystals growing wild in this desert are made from the very life-essence of Forgotten Gods, the folk around here had real work to do, and actual deities were left for campfire stories. That is, until a massive colossus answered the call of something ancient and apocalyptic, rising from the earth and devastating the lands. The bold prospectors, tired laborers, and born-again worshippers in the dusty town of Wyllin’s Gulch were thrown from their routine of industry and exploitation, forced to raise scattered armies and watch them die to the behemoth’s strength. And this is only the first of many titanic beasts poised to terrorize the land. In a Colossus of the Drylands campaign, you’ll play a heroic posse of mavericks who must save their home from a legion of colossi and a primordial god seeking vengeance."

A homebrewed Talespire encounter based on location on the Drylands map

My players are getting ready to scout/potentially fight Ikeri next session, so this is the map I've built for the fight! Even built the Colossus out of map assets to give him a sense of scale.

They play on Friday, wish them luck \o/

The map is on Talestaverns if you'd like to use/edit for your own game: https://talestavern.com/slab/wyllins-quarry-colossus-of-the-drylands-arena-map/?cred_referrer_form_id=100
