Ashes of Erelthar

About the adventure

A Story-Driven Campaign for Roleplayers Who Crave Depth System: D&D 5e/2024 Setting: Grimdark Low-Magic Fantasy Style: Heavy Roleplay, Political Intrigue, Slow-Burn Mystery Spots Available: 2 (out of 4) Cost: 10$ per session Time: Bi-weekly Wednesdays 8-11pm EST --- What I'm Looking For This is a story-first campaign focused on character-driven arcs, moral complexity, and rich worldbuilding. If you're someone who: Thrives on in-character tension and dialogue Loves to weave backstories into the setting Wants to uncover secrets, not just loot Prefers clever solutions over combat dominance Then this is your seat at the table. This is not a good fit if you're focused on optimizing builds, chasing the biggest numbers, or skipping roleplay in favor of rolling dice. We're looking for players who want to shape the world, not just conquer it. --- The Hook It has been 140 years since the last king of Narymoor fell, and the royal line was swallowed by fire. In the years since, the Church of Solais and the Guild Compact have ruled in uneasy alliance, keeping the peace through fear, gold, and silence. But cracks are beginning to form. Whispers stir of dreams that do not belong to the dreamer. Old oaths are spoken again. The land remembers what the world tried to forget. As Caerthwyn prepares to celebrate the Phoenix Festival—a summer holiday born from the monarchy’s ashes—something moves beneath the surface. A single spark may light the fire that reshapes a nation. --- Tone & Themes Gothic and Political Tension between faith, tradition, and rebellion Characters will face moral ambiguity, difficult choices, and shifting allegiances --- The Players So Far We have: A knightly character from Narymoor’s forgotten oaths, hoping to restore honor in a broken land. A tabaxi druid from the Beastlands on a spiritual pilgrimage, navigating a world alien to her ways. We’re seeking 2 more deeply rooted characters to join them. --- Interested? Apply with a short intro about yourself and the kind of character you’d like to play. Serious storytellers only. Let’s build something unforgettable!
