Dungeons & Dragons 5e | One-Shot

About the adventure

In an old primordial forest, creatures dwelling inside its complex eco-system find themselves at odds with a newly arrived predator - the Neanderthal (Homo neanderthal). As a player, choose your character between Humblewood's diverse cast of creatures: Be it one of the birdfolk or a ground dweller(humblefolk) and fight against this oppressive and ambitious newcomer. Our story will focus on a small guerrilla unit of forest creatures (the players) as they set up defences(similar to a tower defence game) & fend off a massive Neanderthal wave or launch a counter-strike. Details: Played solely through discord, you need only a mic. Player level: 5 Race: Pick one of Humblewood's 10 races Class: Any D&D accepted class Music: occasionally ambiental Any questions before signing up will be answered. Best regards, Ivan
