Patrons of the Fall π³οΈβπ (Lv. 8)
Dungeons & Dragons 5e | Campaign
About the adventure
Great evil stirs across the multiverse. Each plane will experience these ripple effects. Now they have reached Oerth. Beings of immense power and foresight have long seen the coming tide and begun preparations. One of these plans requires the formation of a new Adventurer's Guild. Its first members recently received a summons from the planner, known to them as an anonymous patron. These members were chosen for their willingness to protect the common folk above all else. Now they meet a half day's ride northeast of Greyhawk at a guildhall the patron prepared for them. Calls for aid from people across the continent have been collected and posted on a quest board for the new guild. Their patron knows these jobs to each be driven by the ripple effects spreading across the multiverse. The patron hope the true hearts of the guild will lead them to discover the looming threat and protect the people of Oerth. __________________________ This campaign begins at level 5 and will continue to level 20. Players will control what missions are chosen and which threats they focus on. Many threats exist, making these choices have great impact on the end of the campaign.
Game style
Rule of Cool (RoC)
βRule of Coolβ emphasizes creative story beats over sticking to a systemβs 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.
Cults of Vecna and Acererak are active around the ruins of Tokhel Castle. Centuries ago, a great power was sealed within a nearby dungeon. The light of the next full moon will break this seal. Both cults are prepared to kill anything standing in their way. A confrontation between them is inevitable. Neither cult is aware of the greatest threat to their plans- our band of heroes. Will our heroes stop forces of evil from obtaining this lost source of power? Another hero among their ranks could certainly help. Are you this hero? ___________________________________________________ π² Party includes a Dwarf Life Cleric, Tiefling Moon Druid/Assassin, Human Champion and a Dragonborn Wild Heart Barbarian. A build focusing on crowd control or area of effect damage would be useful. Any builds are welcome.
