About the adventure
🕷️ Beneath the earth, the drow are rising. 🌑 While a festival of light dazzles the surface, a drow matron seals a pact in blood — a deal that demands sacrifices beyond imagination. When a sacred artifact vanishes and hundreds are taken as slaves, all trails lead downward… In the shadows of Embla and the halls of Holoth, a dark war brews. Drow houses vie for control. Allies turn. Secrets rot. And something ancient stirs in the deep. Your choices shape the fate of both worlds — if you can survive the descent. This campaign is designed with a higher-than-usual difficulty level and is best suited for players with an intermediate to advanced understanding of D&D. Building an effective and well-balanced character is essential, as success will depend on your ability to wisely manage the resources provided—such as magical items, consumables, and limited rests. ✅ What You’ll Get: Deep narrative and immersive roleplay Strategic combat with layered challenges A living world that reacts to your actions Support from an experienced DM who rewards clever thinking

Creating your character
We'll use the dungeon dudes standart array (17, 15, 13, 12, 10, 8). All options of classes, subclasses and races are available. To start you need to decide where your Ability Scores go, your background and your race.
Players need to infiltrate Holloth to try and get info and disrupt the plans of house Gullion, before they unleash their final attack.
