Lights of the Shadow Empire
Dungeons & Dragons 5e | Campaign
About the adventure
The Six Coffers Caravan Company is trying to reopen an old Zhentarim trade route between the Sword Coast and the Moonsea. You have been hired on as inexpensive security for the journey, with a few weeks of safer travel along the Delimbiyr Route to gain your footing, before entering the dangerous Anauroch desert, home of the last remnants of the Empire of Shadow. Of course your caravan will not be reaching the Moonsea on schedule... You'll have to navigate your way through the unforgiving sands of the Anauroch to find new allies against the threat that interfered with your travels I like starting games at level 1, but we'll be getting through the early levels pretty quickly.

Gameplay details
Gosh, that's a lot of Content Warnings, most of those should be pretty minor. Feel free to reach out if you want more details on any of them! In session 0 we're going to build characters together and discuss the safety tools. I maintain a line between light gore and heavy gore. Nothing is going to get gross, violence will happen and weapons will be handled seriously, but specific descriptions of violence will not be detailed. I also keep a veil around sexual content, we will never discuss details of any private romantic adventures player characters may choose to engage in.
