Tomb of Annihilation - STARTS MAY 5th!
Dungeons & Dragons 5e | Campaign
About the adventure
A shadow looms over the world. The Death Curse—an insidious blight—ravages the land, dooming all who have ever cheated death to waste away, their bodies withering with each passing day. No magic can bring them back. No power can defy the final embrace of the grave. In the heart of the untamed jungles of Chult, the source of this dark affliction festers. Only those brave enough to face the wild, the unknown, and the horrors lurking within can hope to uncover the truth. Time is running out. The dead are dying again, and soon, death will come for all. Gather your party, sharpen your steel, and steel your mind—for this adventure may be your last. Will you break the curse… or succumb to the Tomb of Annihilation? Tomb of Annihilation is a throwback to old hexcrawl exploration adventures from the early days of D&D. Expect to track things like food & water, harvest things from animals and plants, and hope you brought enough bug repellent to keep the mosquitos away.
Game style
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.

How will character creation work
This will be done session zero. We will decide to use either 2014 rules (and the races/subclasses designed for those rules) or 2024 rules (and the subclasses and playable races released with those rules). There will be some character restrictions (ex. no one is teaching strixhaven spells in the jungle, races from other planes of existance, etc.) so as to keep with the theme of the campaign. Certain spells and backgrounds (goodberry/Wanderer/etc) will have modifications to not totally negate the survival aspect of the adventure.
