Here's your first good look at DnD game Neverwinter's Dragonbone Vale

Neverwinter's next module is nearly here. Dragonborn Vale comes to the DnD MMORPG's PC version tomorrow, signalling Valindra Shadowmantle and the Cult of the Dragon's move to bring "undeath" to dragons across Faerûn and beyond using an ancient artefact that's come into their possession. The module ushers in the new Adventure Zone, as well as Heroic Encounters, and even a grappling-hook mechanic that lets you traverse around the game's world in a whole new way - and we've now got our first good look at Dragonborn Vale up close.

To fend off the Cult and protect the Sword Coast from its plans, players will need to gather with the allied factions of Protector's Enclave under the leadership of esteemed wizard Elminster Aumar. A voiceover introduces us to the story's setting - a mysterious, mountainous region "nestled in plain sight yet high enough to discourage prying eyes". There are bridges that divide the zone into the Sword Mountains' four distinctive areas, starting with Wyrmbone Marrows in the south, reaching up through Quellwater Tarn, Scaleblight Summit, and Whetstone Thicket.

Leader Etrion has taken the Emerald Enclave - which players might remember from days of Neverwinter past - to Whetstone Thicket, which lies roughly to the northeast of the region revealed in the clip below. As its name suggests, this is a wooded region home to looming pine trees, stone cliffs, and mist. Think of Skyrim's yawning, rocky vales and you'll be close.

We're giving away 100 special edition cloaks for Neverwinter!

Now that Neverwinter has its The Heart of Fire expansion we thought we'd help you out as you hunt for treasure across the Sword Coast as part of the storyline. Not by any useful means. Nah, we're not here to play the game for you - you're going to have to grant the wishes of that giant yourself, and no way are we getting involved in the Manycoins Bank heist. Nuh-uh. Sorry.

So look, this is what we can do for you, listen up. You're trying to be the best hero you can be, right? Living your best heroic life? And what do all good heroes need? Not a sidekick, no - we're not helping you out, stop it. You know what heroes need, don't you? That's right - a cloak. We have 100 of them to give away right here.

Oh, and ignore all that nonsense you sometimes hear people saying about cloaks. Sure, they can get caught in propellers and lead to a very quick (and messy) death, but how many planes are you planning on being near in Neverwinter? Exactly - there are no aeroplanes. So, yes, cloaks are good. You'll look great. And these are special edition ones, too, so not many people will have them. Fancy.
