Dragon 375
Keepers of the Celestian Order
A Primal Power Organization

By Matthew Sernett

The Celestian Order guards the world against the threats of the Far Realms. Founded by a primal order years ago, its membership now includes heroes of every race and class. They stand firm against its unfathomable depths.

Some secrets you should learn only when you're ready, and some exist that none should know. Surely the world and the planes hold such hidden and dangerous truths, but no place holds so many as the mysterious Far Realm, and no creatures bear so much perilous knowledge as its denizens. Many who learn of the Far Realm go mad. Others taste its foulness and hunger for more, no doubt due to a madness already within them. Yet some who wade into a shallow understanding of the place beyond space stand firm at the shores of its unfathomable depths. The greatest among them would halt the tide of wrongness from that place, though all its evils might crash against them in endless waves. These are the members of the Celestian Order, and they are the light of the world.

Discuss it here.

I really liked this article and am planning on inserting the campaign arc into my FR storyline. It's based in the Moonshae Isles which I've flavored with primal goodness, npc classes and races are about 60% PHB 1 to 40% PHB 2.

They seem very similar to the Keepers of the Cerulean Sign, which is what I will be using them as in my FR campaign.

This was great, and useful.

I would like to see a lot more articles like this with well developed campaign arcs that DMs (especially relatively new DMs like me) can use for inspiration and guidance like a coach while still getting to create our own filler

This would be especially useful with Eberron (or other settings) flavored ones since I'm new to the setting and don't really know what kind of things can transpire in that world.

Seems like the 7th level wizard spell was misprinted as a daily when it should be an encounter.

This gets my thumbs up simply for "sudden and inevitable betrayal".

Mine is an evil laugh! Now DIE!!!
