The Fifth Crusade
Dungeons & Dragons 5e | Campaign
About the adventure
For decades, demons have ruled the Worldwound. Fearsome fiends of every stripe—their mottled skin harder than iron, teeth like serrated blades, and eyes burning with Abyssal flames—roam the ruined lands that were once known as Sarkoris, leaving their mark wherever they go. Four crusades have attempted to cleanse the land, but each seems to meet a worse fate than the last. Were it not for the line of magical wardstones along the eastern and southern borders, the demons would have long ago overrun northcentral Avistan and beyond. Something has changed, however, and the forces of good and evil are set for a greater conflict than ever before. Intelligent hands manipulate the war from the shadows and the gods themselves are no longer interested in just watching and waiting. Take up arms and join The Fifth Crusade where you will rise above your station as mere mortals to heroes of truly mythic proportions. Can you find the truth behind the Worldwound and save Golarion from a threat far more terrifying than mere demons?
This campaign is expected to run once per week for around 4 hours per session, from 4 pm PST to 8 pm PST (7 pm EST to 11 pm EST) Potential start time is adjustable at this point.

Additional details
How to prepare
Bring a mic and have access to discord and forge VTT ahead of time. You will need to make a character but you wont need much else beyond that. As the DM I will provide most/all content, including access to maps, artwork, books, etc.
What I provide
Outside of the players and their characters, I will provide most/all other resources from music and artwork to the campaign itself.
Gameplay details
Expect crunchy combat yet rules lite roleplay focused on story telling. Expect various homebrew rules or mechanics, including access to some alternative classes or races, as well as the powerful mythic system. The game itself takes place in a heavily modified published campaign from Pathfinder 1e called Wrath of the Righteous. Season 0 and various after-session discussions will be used to go over significant amounts of information.
