The Firegates (formally "The Dread Titan's Firegates") is the title of a fictional training dungeon invented by the Wold Order
About
The Dread Titan’s Firegates are a mysterious piece of magic and architecture that open infrequently, but almost always when a dragon has taken up a lair (and hoard) in the caverns that lie behind the gates.
The gates have just opened again, and we are certain something lurks beyond them, likely another draconic beast hoarding away the goods and needs of communities all over Isonhound.
We need a team brave enough to sneak in and steal back the hoards. But beware the sleeping dragon, for when she awakes, the realm will shake.
Presented as a rare opportunity (to entice adventurers), the Firegates were described as the most incredible and potent of dragon lairs.
However, in reality, the dungeon was furnished with treasure by the Wold Order, who also used their own captured Pearl dragon to guard the treasure and test the heroes abilities when it came to dungeon delving and dragon slaying.
History
Used for roughly a decade, the Firegates had their first and most notable shuttering when the greatwyrm Sro, who had ALSO been training potential heroes of the realm, discovered its existence and infiltrated the dungeon, helping heroes release the Pearl Dragon within.
