About the adventure
"Welcome to Quickstone, my new friend—the edge of the world as we know it. Let’s see if I can guess your trade. You’re no quickstone miner; you don’t have the build of someone who spends their days scooping stone out of the mountain. And you don’t strike me as a tradesman who’s looking to set up shop in our lovely town. With that blade at your side, you might be guarding one of the Graywall caravans. But something tells me you’re the kind of person who would appreciate an interesting opportunity…" Take a trip the western frontier of Eberron where the war-torn and history-filled human nation of Breland touches the contested region known as Droaam... the nation of monsters. Come enjoy a western-style pulp-action arcanapunk campaign like none you've ever experienced as you make the frontier town of Quickstone your own! Face off against eldritch horrors below, human headhunters to the east and monsterous threats to the west in an epic wand-slinging, rip-roaring, action-packed campaign that you won't find anywhere else! In this campaign, not only will you experience D&D like you've never experienced it before, with monsterous character options including playing as a medusa, harpy, gargoyle, gnoll, or worg, you'll also have the chance to take on the role of classic Eberron species such as warforged, shifters, changelings and kalashtar as you explore a world with deep, rich lore just waiting to be discovered. Utlizing the 2014 ruleset along with character options from setting creator Keith Baker's newest book, 'Frontiers of Eberron: Quickstone', I will also be implementing a series of house rules to give the campaign a grittier, more dramatic feel including lingering injuries and death saves, crunchy crits, slow natural healing, and Matt Mercer's rules for ressurection. We will start the campaign with a level 1-4 adventure titled 'Heart of Stone' written in part by Keith Baker and from there, we will venture into a homebrew campaign focused on the town of Quickstone and the broader western frontier. This campaign is expected to go at least to level 12 and possibly beyond, but the story doesn't stop there. Quickstone will be the first in a series of Eberron campaigns I call 'Tales of Eberron', each focusing on a different region of the setting and each contributing to a shared world. Come take part in an overarching narrative where your decisions will shape the setting, both on a micro and macro scale as we venture into Tales of Eberron!

At the end of the game, I will ask each player what things they really enjoyed and what they would like to see in future sessions. ✔️ OPEN DOOR. You may leave the table at any time for your mental health without any judgement. ✔️ LINES AND VEILS. Lines and veils are things that players may be uncomfortable with during play.

How will character creation work
✔️ Characters will be created (starting at 1st level) in D&D Beyond. 🚨 Make sure to select 'Legacy' class/species options in D&D Beyond 🚨 ✔️ Ability Scores are determined by either Standard Array (15, 14, 13, 12, 10, 8) or the Point Buy System ✔️ Allowed references include the 2014 Player's Handbook, Xanathar's Guide to Everything, Tasha's Cauldron of Everything, Eberron: Rising from the Last War and Frontiers of Eberron: Quickstone. Use of other reference material must be approved by the DM. ✔️ Frontiers of Eberron character options (monsterous species, frontier subclasses, etc.) are so far not available on D&D Beyond. I will be working in the coming days to build these options as homebrew on D&D Beyond and Foundry. When you join up, I'll be happy to send you an outline of all options as I work to get the options streamlined. ✔️ When leveling up your character, take the 'average' hit dice value + CON modifier (as automatically provided by D&D Beyond).
