🧭 The Undiscovered Country 🗺️ | Open World Game |🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️
Dungeons & Dragons 5e | Campaign
About the adventure
It's easy to drop in and out of this West Marches-inspired game! 500 years ago, a storm of sorcery arose and cut off the continent of Talminain from the rest of the world. For centuries the world wondered what was happening behind the wall of arcane magic, until recently when the barrier mysteriously fell. Now a group of explorers have gone to the continent and reclaimed an abandoned city by the shore. They've named it Bastion, and from here they plan to map the continent of Talminain and discover what has happened to it. You have arrived at Bastion to join the effort. Whether it be for prestige, money, or a love of exploration, you're ready to face dangers untold. 🌲 Discover a lost world as you traverse lush forests, ancient ruins, and mysterious dungeons. 🛡️ Forge your own path, deciding which direction to take the story. ⚔️ Battle mythical creatures guarding forgotten secrets. 🏆 Gather rare artifacts and powerful equipment to aid you on your journey. Join “The Undiscovered Country” and chart your own path through a world of adventure. Artwork ©️ Dean Spencer, used with permission
Game style
Roleplay Heavy
“Roleplay Heavy” games place the focus on the story, the characters, and the world they live within, and tend to lean hard into the various roleplaying elements of the game. These games will frequently find the party talking with NPCs, exploring the personal elements of their backstories, or even having emotional moments around the camp fire.
Rule of Cool (RoC)
“Rule of Cool” emphasizes creative story beats over sticking to a system’s rules as written. Players have the ability to push the limits of the rules or even break core rule mechanics at times if the Game Master thinks it is interesting, fun, or cool enough.
