wowhead.com:

In an exclusive interview, Wowhead had the chance to sit together with Chris Metzen, once Senior Vice President of Story and Franchise Development and now Creative Advisor of the Warcraft Leadership Team at Blizzard Entertainment, to talk about his current projects! After Chris had left Blizzard in 2016 he founded Warchief Gaming, a company focused on creating tabletop roleplaying games. Last year, Warchief Gaming released its first game, Auroboros: Coils of the Serpent, a Dungeons and Dragons 5E campaign setting inspired by Metzen's very first adventurer group.

He also wrote the sourcebook called Worldbook: Lawbrand which leads both game masters and players through the wondrous world of Lawbrand. Additionally, Metzen worked together with Micky Neilson, one of the leading writers at Blizzard who worked on multiple franchises, to create Under the Sun, a novel telling the crazy story of Metzen's teenage roleplaying group set in the Lawbrand universe.

This novel is also available as an audiobook on Audible, narrated by Chris Metzen himself! Back in December last year, Chris Metzen returned to Blizzard Entertainment as a Creative Advisor. According to John Hight, General Manager of the Warcraft franchise, Metzen's work focuses on World of Warcraft for now but will expand to other franchises in the future.
