Avatar Starter Campaign | Aang Era | Pirates of Crimson Sails
Avatar Legends: The RPG | Campaign
About the adventure
The Hundred Years War is over, but the wounds remain. The former colonies of Yu Dao and Cranefish Town have only recently avoided destruction during the struggles of the Harmony Restoration Movement. The peace created by the Treaty of Yu Dao between the Fire Lord and the Earth King barely holds on by a string. Now the pirates of Crimson Sails are threatening to tear any chance at peace apart. Your party won the trust of Fire Lord Zuko with your quick actions and bravery during the Harmony Restoration Movement. With Fire Nation authorities spread thin trying to maintain order, Zuko calls upon you to take on a secret mission to a hidden island to protect the terms of the Treaty. An adventure jam packed with NPCs to meet as you explore Crimson Sails island and decide a solution to the pirate attacks.
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.
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.

How to prepare
Please make sure to have: - a free Discord account to join the voice chat on computer or mobile (no webcam required!) - a free Roll20 account to access character playbooks and other play materials. Optional: - You don't have to be an expert in the Avatar universe to play this game, but it helps to have some familiarity with the series! - Rule books, cheat sheets, and character playbooks will be available for review on Discord and Roll20 before the game.
What I provide
I have set up a discord server for chat, character playbooks on Roll20 (including optional premade characters with artwork), and references and cheat sheets for anyone learning the system. Avatar Legends is a roleplay heavy game and we will be using mostly theater of the mind both in and out of combat.
Gameplay details
We'll have time to discuss any limits/boundaries at a short Session 0 at the beginning of the game. During the game, X/N/O card procedures will be available, and of course, players are free to message me privately at any time too. I like to schedule short mid-session breaks- for refills and snacks at the very least! Then there's an optional post game debriefing if we feel it's necessary.

How will character creation work
There are five premade characters that you can choose from for this adventure if you want to make your character creation extra easy! They can be viewed on Roll20 or in the discord server and claimed on a first come first served basis. Otherwise I will have character creation tips and hooks posted to help guide your own design. Character creation will be finalized in Roll20 during a short session 0 at the beginning of the game. There are no restrictions of how many benders of each type at the table, but I do ask that everyone choose a different playbook.
