Earthdawn: Exodus | A Fantasy Apocalyptic Horror Campaign (18+)

Savage Worlds | Campaign

About the adventure

You've lived in this town your entire life. Your parents lived here. And their parents. And generations before them. Throughout that time, things have been peaceful and prosperous. Crops were plentiful. Magic flourished. The population grew tenfold. But something has changed. You can't quite put your finger on it, but something isn't right. There's a foul hint of sinister. It's not visible to the naked eye, but you know that it's watching you--watching everyone. All you can do is wait. Wait for this evil to show itself so that you can, hopefully, find a way to destroy it before there's nothing left of your home except bones and dust.

Recruiting notes

šŸŒ¼ This game is for new players. And veteran players. And all players in between. šŸ”„ The campaign is a deliciously-macabre mixture of childhood innocence and demonic possession. Think "Dungeons & Dragons meets The Goonies meets Hellraiser". šŸ“‹ There are two acts in this campaign. The first is a "race against the clock". The second is a "rescue mission". Both acts heavily involve world exploration and hidden mysteries just beneath the surface of what the players can see. šŸ•‘ Meeting once, every-other-week, this campaign will last approximately 6 months.

All other Ancestries prohibited. šŸ” Custom Rule #2: I'm removing "heart attack/death" from fear checks because...well, I don't think it's very fun at all to kill off a character from being scared. šŸ“‹ Everything else is as per the rulebooks! ------------------------------------------------------
