About the adventure
In the secluded town of Riverbend, hidden deep within a mist-covered valley, an ancient prophecy whispers of heroes destined to rise in a time of great peril. For generations, the townsfolk have lived in the shadow of this prophecy, its whispers lying dormant in the stories of the town elders. But now, strange omens have begun to appear—signs that the time foretold may finally be at hand. Rumors spread of shadowy figures glimpsed in the woods at night, of ancient powers stirring in secret, and of a creeping darkness slowly overtaking distant lands. Crops wither without explanation, strange beasts are sighted at the edge of the wilds, and the town’s once-quiet forests now seem alive with unseen eyes. The air is thick with tension, and fear hangs over Riverbend like a shroud. You and your fellow adventurers are drawn into the heart of this prophecy, tasked with unraveling its meaning while navigating dangerous foes, ancient relics, and secrets that have been buried for centuries. With the fate of the region and, possibly the world, hanging in the balance, you must decide how far you're willing to go to fulfill the prophecy—or discover what it truly demands. Will you embrace your destiny, or will the shadows of Riverbend consume you? This campaign will take place in my homebrew world of Aedrill. It is most likely that we will be playing using 2024 rules but this will be discussed further in session 0.

About me
Hello! I'd like to share with you my deep and profound love of roleplay! I've been playing D&D and other tabletop roll playing games for over 20 years and have been running games almost as long. I am a deep believer in the philosophy of "play to find out what happens". No outcome is predetermined, the players of my games are fully in the driver seat.

Creating your character
Character creation will happen during session 0. We'll start at level one and will use a modified point buy system for determining stats.
Campaign is well underway and group is approaching level 5. New players certainly welcome! It is an open-ended campaign with no set stopping point. We will go for as long as the story is interesting to us, potentially to Level 20+.
What to expect
Preparing for the session
Players should have Roll20, Discord and D&D Beyond if they wish, and if you plan to use D&D Beyond for rolls, have the Beyond 20 plugin installed. Headphones a must.
What Seb brings to the table
We'll be using Roll20 with a plethora of maps and tokens for combat as well a exploration at times. Generally I stick to rules as written but if someone has a cool idea I like to roll with it.
