Eberron: Thrilling Tales on the Western Frontier

Eberron: Thrilling Tales on the Western Frontier

Dungeons & Dragons 5e | Campaign

About the adventure

You came to the town at the edge of the world to escape the horror and tragedy of the Last War. A fresh start, a quiet place, or so you thought. The moment you stepped off the lightning rail, you realized you were wrong... A blood-thirsty army of Reavers prowls the countryside gathering souls to lay the town to siege. Drawn into a conflict that will decide the fate of the Western Frontier, the people look to you to stand in opposition of the Horned King and cast down the brutal tyrant! Meanwhile, the Queen of the Lost watches with great interest for any opportunity to fill her warband’s coffers. Perhaps you can forge an alliance with her forces to ward off the Reavers? Elsewhere, the warlord marshals his forces—fiendish hobggoblins, cunning gnolls, savage ogres, vicious trolls, and countless other monstrous foes—for the coming bloodshed. One witness claims they saw a dragon circling above the gloom emanating from the tyrant’s citadel of evil!... So much for any thoughts you had of peace and quiet. A new war has begun, and whether you like it or not, you're the best hope the people got! *** This custom level 6 to 10 Wild West-inspired campaign will highlight options from the new Player's Handbook (2024) and will be a fantastic opportunity to explore an amazing corner of the Eberron setting--The Wild Western Frontier! These are contested lands between an old kingdom and a new nation of monsters ruled by a cabal of mysterious hags. It is a forgotten, shattered realm, littered with the ruins of ancient civilizations. Numerous factions and warlords vie for control of the land, each looking to lay their stake to precious magical resources. The people who come here are either looking for a fresh start or are running away from something. In short, it's the perfect backdrop for a fantastic campaign of action, adventure, and intrigue. Join today for the adventure of a lifetime!

Additional details

How to prepare

You'll need a desktop or laptop computer with a dedicated microphone for Discord voice chat. You'll also need a Discord account and a Roll20 account (both are free). Please note, Roll20 works best on a computer and doesn't work very well on a phone or tablet. You don't need to know how to play D&D, use Roll20, or Discord to join this game. I will guide you through onboarding and make it easy to join this campaign. While it will be helpful if you already have rulebooks and/or know how to play--you don't need to. This is a perfect campaign for complete beginners!

What I provide

Roll20 Pro access, high resolution game maps, dynamic lighting, customized character tokens, amazing visual aids and handouts, full access to my Roll20 D&D rulebook library, automated character sheets and quality of life scripts for easy play, immersive background music, a Discord channel for Voice Chat, Five Word Session Reports of your character's exploits, and everything else required for you to have an amazing experience!

Gameplay details

I will provide a Consent in Gaming checklist to establish our Lines & Veils. We'll discuss this during Session 0. We'll use digital X, N, and O cards to ensure player safety during game sessions. We'll take a 10-minute bio break at the session's halfway point. I actively encourage player feedback and will use that information to provide exceptional player experience.

How will character creation work

I will work with you to create your unique characters after you have joined our Discord and Roll20 channels. We'll also spend some time during Session 0 going over character creation and other details. I will also have pregenerated characters available for those who want them. Your characters will begin play at 6th level and will be built using Standard Array (15, 14, 13, 12, 10, 8) or Point Cost (27 points) for Ability Scores. You may use the Player's Handbook (2024), Chronicles of Eberron, Eberron: Rising from the Last War, Exploring Eberron, Frontiers of Eberron, Mordenkainen Presents: Monsters of the Multiverse, Tasha's Cauldron of Everything, and Xanathar's Guide to Everything to create your character, all of which I will share with you on Roll20. We'll use Roll20's character sheet in this game and I will work with you to make the process of bringing your character to the VTT as easy as possible.
