Dune: Fate of the Imperium | Weekly | Wednesday
Dune: Adventures in the Imperium | Campaign
About the adventure
šļø After enduring for millennia, the time of the Imperium is ending. The Emperor is about to overplay his hand, pitting House Atreides and House Harkonnen against each other, using an old feud to dispose of his rivals. But he has critically miscalculated, and though House Atreides will fall, its young scion Paul Atreides will survive and rise to take the throne. From there, the fire and flame of a terrifying new religious crusade will surge across the galaxy, like the Butlerian Jihad of old, changing everything. In this four-month campaign, your House can take part in these momentous events as the timeline of the eras shifts from The Imperium to The Ascension of MuadāDib. Your player characters must pick sides and make careful alliances to survive the oncoming storm. Even if your group is already familiar with the chain of events, survival will not be as simple as picking the winning side. In this time of chaos, the enemies you cannot see are the most dangerous. šļø Inspired by Frank Herbertās Dune, this campaign is a dangerous journey through a world of intergalactic intrigue and the fate of all at stake. šļø Fall of the Imperium uses the Dune: RPG system by Mophidius to traverse the wide world of Frank Herbertās Dune, as well as its film adaptations (Dune [1987], Dune Part One, Dune Part Two). Play through the events of the original Dune trilogy as the Imperium spirals toward the rise of Voice From the Other World MuadāDib and determine the fate of the entire galaxy, whether by the spider-like movements of the Bene Gesserit from the shadows or the guerilla warfare of the Fremen. This campaign will play out in four acts over the course of 4 months: Act I: The Gathering Storm Act II: MuadāDib Act III: Fall of the Imperium Act IV: War Across a Million Worlds The campaign will feature an āRā rating and require a completed safety session with the Wild Reverend Mother (Game Mistress) and a completed Lines/Veils document in order to engage in subsequent play. š¼Looking to start streaming your tabletop play, but nervous about jumping into it/unsure of where to start? For a little extra game has a toggleable opt-in to have your game sessions recorded on video, why not get some practice in while you play in the sandbox of Arrakis?
