About the adventure
Beyond the world we know lies a land of high adventure: Yavana! A realm of steaming jungles, barren deserts, and ancient mountains! Yavana! Where primordial beasts from the dawn of our world still roam! Yavana! Where men pray to gods thought long dead and treat with the demons of outer space! Yavana! Where a cool head and a strong arm could win a king’s ransom in treasure! Be the first to see the strange Temple of Abzu where sharks swim through the air! Plunder the tomb of the First Man, a saurian monstrocity from ancient days! Defy the nefarious necromancer whose curse threatens a city with death! This is a sandbox campaign inspired by Sword & Sorcery fiction and adventure films of the mid 20th century. Players will take the role of warriors, freebooters, and sorcerers attempting to win fame, fortune, and glory. Game rules are Old School Essentials but only human characters are available. Challenge the savage world of swords & sorcery!

How to prepare
You will need a mic and a discord account. We may need to meet up on discord before hand and make sure you can log into the foundry server I use through the forge vtt, but I thusfar have not had an issue with that.
What I provide
I have a Foundry VTT license and pay a monthly subscription to the Forge vtt to host the game. I will be using Dungeondraft maps I created as well as custom tokens, overland maps, and other assets to make the experience as aesthetically pleasing as possible.
Gameplay details
This game is a sandbox game where players will typically have a number of hooks to chose from for a given session. Most adventures will involve overland travel and exploring a dungeon or other ruin, though city and social adventures will not be completely absent. Yavana takes inspiration from mid century adventure film and swords & sorcery fiction so issues of violence, war, slavery, and certain occult themes are likely to be present.

How will character creation work
Characters are simple enough in OSE to be made in session. I will be using a life path system that influence the dice you roll for stats as well as your starting equipment. All characters will be human.
