Tower of Karthax
Dungeons & Dragons 5e | Campaign
About the adventure
๐ฅ Do you feel that official modules are too linear? ๐ Are you bored by GMs who read aloud text and follow a script? ๐บ๏ธ Do you want to explore unpredictable dungeons? โ๏ธ Are you a fan of homebrew player options and balance? ๐ฒ Does the triumph over actual risk of losing pump your adrenaline? If yes, you're in the right place! A warlord has called for the bravest and most ambitious to enter the tower and emerge with the Staff of Omniscience, a relic that can change the tide of war. But bewareโthe tower was built by a mad deity, and some say the deity has become the tower itself. "How hard can it be? It's just a tower with ten floors. The rest are simply cowards!" Thoughts like these cross your mind as you assemble your group and steel yourself for the challenges ahead. This campaign focuses on the exploration and combat of a god-tower that offers a prize capable of winning the war between two eternally rival continents. Themes: Dungeon Crawling, Riddles, Puzzles, Tactical Combat, Teamwork
โ We'll start once we have 5 players, but the game can continue with 4 players. Maximum player number is 6. Characters will be created on session 0. If the campaign has already started, and you're joining on the same day of the next session, you're advised to skip the first session, to give yourself time to get to know the group/game/setting before committing. ๐ฑ Medium-term campaign, levels 2-8. ๐ฑ Be prepared to use some new Homebrew content/lore. โ FILL ME FIRST: https://forms.gle/8gnCVVgKaShH5zpU9 The above form is a compilation of questions I would ask a joining player to determine their preferences, game style etc. Please have it filled as you apply. UPDATE: For individuals joining the campaign during its progression, the process of character creation is scheduled for Mondays or at a mutually convenient time. This step is undertaken to ensure your seamless integration into the ongoing narrative. We kindly request that you partake in a session as an observer (complimentary of charge) prior to your enrollment. Your cooperation in this matter is greatly appreciated.
