About the adventure
*The art by: Eric Belisle* Journey into the Realm of the Lost, Hidden, and Forsaken: The Shadow Realm. The Shadow Realm: A realm crafted by the Moon Goddess Hecate, a land the river Styx flows ominously across. The majority that isn't untamed wilderness is run by the Fey Court of Night and Magic and The Undead Empire of Twilight. It is a harsh place: while some natives have come to adapt, others suffer Shadow Corruption, an ever-present threat to outsiders. As harsh as the realm is, it offers many mysteries yet to be unraveled: Legends of Lost Kingdoms, Knowledge, Treasures, and Magic beyond your Wildest Dreams. Some of the most well-known and whispered are: The Court of Wine and Roses was a minor fey court whose rulers were ardent devotees of Baccho, the elven god of poetry, wine, and revelry. In its time, the court was renowned for its amazing wines, beautiful musical compositions, and outrageous parties. Little remains to remind the Shadow Realm of their existence, save for the occasional rare bottle of wine vinted by the court, and the still-popular songs of its bards, whose names have escaped history … Over a thousand years ago, an elf lord known as The Sun King and a shadow fey known as The Dusk Queen fell in love. They were happy, until The Dusk Queen’s ambition tore them apart. To stop her escalating acts of evil, The Sun King used his unique magic to imprison her in a hidden and unknown prison, and in his grief sequestered himself in a palace built in the Shadow Realm. The Sun King and his palace disappeared, and the story faded into obscurity … Throughout the land, legends of the Dusk Queen persist. They speak of a sometimes kind, other times cruel, but persistently mysterious Fey Queen who ruled from her Dusk Tower: a tall spire of smooth, dark stone in the heart of a great, shadowy forest. Perhaps the most gripping legend, however, is the whisper of the Dusk Queen’s reemergence since adventurers began looking for her fabled Grimoire … 🛡️-Starting Quest-🛡️ A frazzled Scholar Lyrio Felanthos from Wormwood has sent ahead a member of The Night Messengers, a loose organization of daring couriers, to deliver a package to his most trusted ally a scholar of the shadow fey named Alluna, and only her. He repeatedly emphasized that the package must only reach Alluna and her hands alone! He Worries people may try to stop the Night Messenger and take his Package he is Hiring a group of adventurers to make sure it gets delivered safely or at the very least the package doesn't end up in the wrong hands. *I hold no affiliation to Kolbold Press or Open Design LLC the owners of the art and Module.

How will character creation work
We are starting at level 1 we are doing point buy, standard array, or rolling on dnd beyond you may roll two groups and pick the best. Standard equipment. 2014 or 2024 are fine to be mixed when it comes to characters depending on player preference. (Critical role, Kobold press, Grim hollow are Approved ) we will be doing a 0.5 session we will do a little intro and talk about characters and what we may encounter in the adventure, then see if we can make any connections between fellow players and npc based on what concepts you come in with.
