About the adventure
See our Trailer on Youtube! https://youtu.be/lNNg7qYpuKs?si=oMW62VUNvTO_pNR9 "I dreamt of a crystal vault. The light inside that crystal spoke to me. 'Listen,' it implored, '...to the fable of the star.'' The Last War is over. Four years ago, a magical apocalypse known as The Mourning destroyed the nation of Cyre and the vast majority of it's people. Two years later, the shock of this calamity set off a chain of negotiations in Thronehold, the ancient capital city of the now shattered kingdom of Galifar. The result was the Treaty of Thronehold, a document that has bought a kind of peace and, many hope, a true end to the horrors of the war that have plagued the continent of Khorvaire. In the theocracy of Thrane, the people have turned away from the political leaders they knew in the days of their fathers and have instead placed their trust, and faith, in the Church of the Silver Flame. It's current leader, 12 year old Jaela Daran, stands as The Keeper of the Flame, acting as both the political and spiritual leader of this nation of over 2 million. With guidance from the College of Cardinals, the young girl must bear the weight of a nation upon her fragile soldiers. Yet no one doubts that she is the true Keeper, chosen by the might of the Silver Flame to lead the nation of Thrane into its future. Yet....the brighter a flame burns, the deeper the shadows it casts.... **An Eberron Adaptation** Silvered Shadows is an Eberron adaptation of the Curse of the Crimson Throne adventure path. Set in the Thranish city of Flamekeep, seat of the Church of the Silver Flame, the campaign is an urban adventure where your characters will rise from levels 2-12 as they navigate the political intrigues, urban unrest and factional dangers within Thrane's greatest city. **Your destiny awaits** - The Order of the Empty Throne has stood watch over the seat of Galifar's True King for one hundred years, patiently waiting for a claimant to ascend to the throne of a united Kingdom of Galifar. As the war dragged on, so to did the purpose of the Order wane. Now, its legacy reduced to a haven for orphans and the unwanted, it is a shell of its former self. And yet, a new series of faces will rise from the ranks of the Acolytes of the Order, ready to step into the radiant light of destiny. Take on the role of a recent Ascendant of the Order of the Empty Throne as you and your fellow Brothers and Sisters of the Order are thrust into a world of murder, intrigue and urban adventure within the walls of Flamekeep.
Game style
Roleplay Heavy
“Roleplay Heavy” games place the focus on the story, the characters, and the world they live within, and tend to lean hard into the various roleplaying elements of the game. These games will frequently find the party talking with NPCs, exploring the personal elements of their backstories, or even having emotional moments around the camp fire.
Rule of Cool (RoC)
“Rule of Cool” emphasizes creative story beats over sticking to a system’s 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.
Combat Heavy
“Combat Heavy” games emphasize the combat mechanics within their systems over roleplay or puzzle solving. There are frequent and longer battles with enemies and a greater emphasis on tactical game play.

How to prepare
We use discord for voice chat. A headset is preferred to avoid echo back over your mics. You don't need a camera. No one is required/expected to put themselves on a camera.
What I provide
We will be using the Foundry VTT software. You don't need to provide anything on your end. Characters will be made and maintained on DnD Beyond. You'll have to make a free account, and that is it. I'll provide all the necessary supplements!
Gameplay details

How will character creation work
We will be handling all character creation in our Discord and handle any issues in our session 0. - We use standard point buy and options from the 2024 PHB. - Characters start at level 2. - All characters will begin play as being members of the Order of the Empty Throne, which I will detail once you are onboard. We will be using the 2024 ruleset, but if there is something in the 2014 ruleset you really want to use, we can discuss. I'm open to ideas, including homebrew if there is a specific desire that rules don't offer.
