Two Craters: A D&D 2024 Sandboxish Adventure

About the adventure

Hello! This campaign is a redux of one I originally wrote and ran 4 separate times for 5e. It's now updated to run again for the new 2024 ruleset. If you're looking for a long-term, goofy party, sandbox romp through a dynamic world, this is the campaign for you! This is a semi-serious, semi-sandbox, semi-storytelling campaign that will take you on a wide variety of dungeon delving, politicking, world exploring, and sidequesting. While a main campaign with set locations is outlined, the party will be driving much of the action forward at their own pace. This is an entirely custom world and campaign, with fully lit custom-drawn maps (or purchased assets, where appropriate). Encounters use a mixture of stock creatures drawn from the compendium and custom-built creatures, all balanced to party level and ability. This campaign will consist of a mix of straight roleplay, straight encounters/dungeons, mixtures of both, politicking and diplomacy, courtroom drama, sea-born melodramas, stealthy hijinx, survival treks, and much much more. You, the party, will decide what to engage with, and how! This campaign starts at level 1, and will go to levels 12-14, using milestone levelling. ----- 👋Greetings Adventurer, If you have received this letter, that means your application to work for the Archival Archaeological and Anthropological Survey of the Southern Rings has been accepted. We offer a large variety of contract positions, but please make sure to bring your sword, armour, components bag, magical staff, alchemical kit, and/or related vestments, as the cratorial interior can be quite harsh. Depending on the timing, you may be asked to venture into the arid heat of the Driftstone Desert, the frozen forest of the World Glacier, or the depths of Gak's End. Please meet me at the docks of Ipotechia on the 5th of Murmety for your induction and first mission. Regards, Professor Lucius Whitebeak💀
