Chronicles of Devilport! | D&D 5E | Dark Epic Sandbox Campaign
Dungeons & Dragons 5e | Campaign
About the adventure
Welcome to Devilport, a nasty, violent and lucrative city on the shore of the Devil Sea. Devilport is a medieval dark fantasy sandbox with pirates, were-sharks, gangs, duelists, and brutal and nightmarish magic. π₯ PLOT π₯ From urchin to overlord. You'll start as newcomers to the city of Devilport, but soon opportunities will present themselves (paired with risks and danger). This sandbox-style campaign will allow you to rise in the city's power-hungry hierarchy. Your guile, boldness, and creativity will project you to the top, and you will eventually be able to influence the city's destiny: Crime and piracy, or legal trade and justice? π SYSTEM π With my innovative custom take on D&D, I offer a game that combines a deep narrative experience with a crime gang sandbox setting. The sophisticated narratology involves dramatic realism and character depth, while valuing role-play over crunchiness.
This game works best with... π₯ Proactive players who don't fear taking the spotlight. π Passion for complex plots and deep, touching stories. π§ Attention to detail and creative problem-solving. π» Webcam encouraged. π€ Speaking in character encouraged. No experience in D&D or any ttrpg is required for this game. No books or any material are required either.
