About the adventure
💨 The Storm Giants are betrayed 🏹 Hill and Frost Giants are raiding settlements 🌋 Fire Giants are collecting slaves 🔥 The ancient feud between Giant and Dragon is reborn 💀 A hidden evil is fomenting war and must be stopped Ages ago, giants and dragons waged war across the Savage Frontier. These battles are long forgotten by the human civilizations of today, but ancient relics remain. And now, the land shudders once more with the thunder of giant footsteps. Puny adventurers must rise to the challenge, gather their strength, unlock the power of the ancient runes, and take the fight to the giant’s doorsteps. Only then can they discover a hidden evil fomenting a war between giants and small folk. Only they can they forge an alliance to end the war before it begins.

Players have the ability to utilize the rules in creative ways to create awesome characters and moments in the game. ⚔️ Combat Heavy “Combat Heavy” games emphasize the combat mechanics within their systems over roleplay or puzzle solving. There are frequent and longer battles with enemies and a greater emphasis on tactical game play.

What Brody | Admiral Adventures brings to the table
✅ Challenging combat (I do have a military background) ✅ Unique and amazing battlemaps ✅ Ambient music ✅ Sound effects ✅ Voice modification for major NPCs
Homebrew rules
✅ Enemy Initiative. Vice making "one roll for an entire group of identical creatures," initiative will be rolled for each individual creature or in some cases, for "a formation" of enemy combatants. ✅ Hit Dice Vice rolling the dice after a short rest (page 186 PHB page 67 of the Basic Rules), you can apply the "average" hit dice value + constitution modifier (same rule used for adding HPs when leveling up). ✅ Break Out. Some monster effects that remove a player's ability to take an action by causing them to be paralyzed, charmed, stunned, etc. can be "broken" by suffering psychic damage instead. The damage taken is based on the monster's CR
