About the adventure
Welcome to Everden: A Land in Flames, A Hope in the Shadows In the heart of Everden lies the mystical forest of Humblewood, a land once harmonious with the rhythm of nature. Protected for generations by the wise and industrious birdfolk of Alderheart, the Great Tree City, the forest has stood as a symbol of peace and prosperity. But now, that peace is shattered. The fires have come—scorching the land, razing villages, and turning the once serene woods into a battleground. The humblefolk, whose homes have been destroyed, are rising in anger, their hearts burning with hatred toward their birdfolk rulers. The flames have not only ravaged the land but ignited the spark of rebellion. Once peaceful citizens have turned to banditry, and the threat of war looms on the horizon. Yet, amid the chaos, a glimmer of hope remains. Brave heroes, whether born from the ashes of their lost homes or called by fate itself, have begun to rise. These champions alone can seek to uncover the truth behind the inferno, quell the flames, and restore balance to Humblewood before it is consumed by hatred and destruction. Do you have the courage to stand against the fire? Will you heal the rift between the people of Humblewood, or will the land fall to ruin? The fate of Alderheart, the humblefolk, and the forest itself rests in your hands.
Game style
Rules as Written (RaW)
Games that are ran “Rules as Written” emphasize realism and stick to the letter of the rules, allowing players to explore creative solutions while still operating under a consistent rule set. Players have the ability to utilize the rules in creative ways to create awesome characters and moments in the game.
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.
Theater of the Mind
“Theater of the Mind” uses little to no visuals for scene settings and combat. Instead, the narrative imagery comes from the Game Master’s descriptions and character action and movement comes from Players’ descriptions.
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.
