The Tempest's Wrath
Pirate Borg | Campaign
About the adventure
Set sail for a voyage into chaos, as you and your scallywag crew are shipwrecked on a cursed island where storms never sleep and shadows whisper from the jungle depths. Tempest’s Wrath is a fast-paced, grimdark adventure filled with deadly encounters, ancient secrets, and the promise of treasure for those brave—or foolish—enough to face the storm. You’ll awaken amidst shattered masts and swirling lightning, forced to navigate a maze of deadly ruins, twisted jungle paths, and spectral horrors. The jungle itself seems alive—watching, shifting, and testing your every step. At the heart of it all looms the Altar of Storms, where an undead Warlock Captain and his ghostly crew seek to wield power unimaginable. Will you rise to claim the Storm Gemstone, or be swallowed by the fury of the tempest? This adventure is designed for 3-8 players and is perfect for fans of dark fantasy, nautical horror, and high-stakes combat. Whether you're a seasoned Pirate Borg veteran or a new recruit looking for a swashbuckling challenge, Tempest’s Wrath promises unforgettable moments of peril, power, and victory—or devastating defeat. Expect brutal battles, intense roleplay, and a world that reacts to your choices and cunning. Gather your courage, sharpen your blades, and brace for the storm—only the worthy will survive. Who it’s for: Players who enjoy combat, exploration, and narrative-driven roleplay with high-stakes decisions. Ideal for new and experienced Pirate Borg players alike!
