🌊 The Maelstrom War ⚔️| Lvl 5+
Dungeons & Dragons 5e | Campaign
About the adventure
The seas churn. The skies burn. War is coming. Across the shattered isles, tensions rise as rival factions clash for control over the storm-wracked seas. The Maelstrom, an ancient and chaotic force, surges with unnatural power, disrupting magic, twisting reality, and reshaping the tides of war. Kingdoms crumble, pirates grow bolder, and whispers of something far older and darker stirring beneath the waves spread like wildfire. Whether by fate or folly, you and your crew find yourselves caught in the storm. Your choices will shape the fate of the war. ⚔️ Ally with warring factions or carve your own path to power. 🌊 Battle through treacherous waters, cursed ruins, and storm-forged monsters. 🔮 Unravel the secrets of the Maelstrom before it consumes everything. 🛡 Fight, betray, plunder, or unite—whatever it takes to survive. The storm does not care for kings or heroes. Will you rise with the tide… or drown in the chaos? 🌩️ Set sail. The war awaits. Campaign Teaser: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=toi8G0MfNIQ&t=3s
