Heroes of Humblewood

Dungeons & Dragons 5e | Campaign

About the adventure

In the vibrant and perilous world of Humblewood, players embark on a heroic journey amidst ancient forests teeming with magic and mystery. Set on the eastern coast of a vast continent, the Humblewood is a place where towering trees hold cities aloft in their canopies, and where birdfolk and humblefolk, humanoid races resembling animals, coexist amidst the Great Rhythm of life and death. As a citizen of the Wood, you'll navigate through a tapestry of rich lore and ever-present danger. The setting is infused with themes of unity and conflict, where alliances are tested by raging forest fires and the resurgence of the Bandit Coalition threatens the fragile peace. Whether you choose to soar as a birdfolk glider, harnessing the wind and the sky, or tread the forest floor as a humblefolk, relying on your wits and connection to the land, your choices will shape the fate of Humblewood. Ideal for both seasoned adventurers and newcomers alike, Humblewood offers a blend of exploration, strategic combat, and deep storytelling. Discover ancient secrets hidden within the Wood, forge alliances across diverse communities, and confront the challenges that threaten to engulf the forest in flames. Embrace your role as a guardian of nature or a seeker of justice, and weave your own tale of heroism in a world where every action resonates with consequences. Prepare to immerse yourself in a fantastical realm where courage and camaraderie are the keys to survival, and where the future of Humblewood rests in your hands.

Additional details

How to prepare

Players will need a Webcam/Mic to play. Game will be hosted weekly on Discord. Players will need to know at least the basic D&D rules beforehand. I'm 100% fine explaining rules and concepts for new players, but please do a base level of game rules research!

What I provide

Players will be invited to a discord server where links to Owlbear Rodeo will be provided. Players will have the opportunity to set up their own custom tokens once in owlbear rodeo. I utilize Tabletop Audio and KenkuFm for music/sound effects. Players will be invited to a campaign on D&D Beyond if they do not have access to source materials.

Gameplay details

I keep an open door policy. If a player is ever uncomfortable for any reason I encourage them to reach out to me on the side and let me handle the issue accordingly.
