About the adventure

Something is dragging your city into the depths of hell. You felt it the moment the ground began to shake. Buildings crumbled. Flames rained from a blood-red sky. Priests offered prayers that went unanswered. Whatever's happening, it's not natural, and it’s not stopping. They say an ancient pact has been broken. That devils now walk among the people, collecting old debts. As the city is slowly pulled into a war-torn wasteland of fire and steel, you’re left with a choice: run from the apocalypse, or ride straight into it. This campaign is about sacrifice, corruption, and the cost of power. If you want to test your character’s soul as much as their sword, this descent is for you. Welcome to Avernus. 🔥Drive and battle in Mad Max-style war machines across a hellscape of flame and metal. 🔥Make soul-shaking choices that challenge your character’s morals, loyalties, and limits. 🔥Raid soul batteries, duel demonic warlords, and crash a devil's parade. 🔥Explore a playground of high-octane chaos where every bargain could make-or break-you. This isn’t just survival, it’s damnation or defiance. Every mile through the ash is a chance to reclaim your soul… or trade it away. Stand your ground, and you might drag a city back from the edge. Fall, and you’ll become just another name whispered in the flames. Will you burn, or will you ride?

About me

Hey, I’m Avelaitixa, but everyone calls me Avel (we all need a nickname, right?). I run story-driven games three nights a week where your choices matter, your bad decisions have names, and not everything gets tied up neatly. I like messy, morally gray stories. The kind where alliances shift, plans go sideways, and sometimes the smartest strategy is stunning, pantsing, and immediately running away from Arkhan the Cruel. I’m here for whispered deals, reckless plans, and the kind of character moments that hit harder than anyone expected. The best sessions usually involve someone saying “this is a terrible idea” or "what could possibly go wrong?" right before committing to it completely. If that sounds like your kind of trouble, there’s a seat for you here.
