The Final Day

About the adventure

The idea for this campaign came to me in a fever dream, and now I desperately need to share it with the world. The setting is the End of the World; the remaining dregs of a world that has been almost consumed in its entirety by the eldritch calamity known simply as the Void. This is by no means a cheerful setting, the few remaining survivors and remnants of civilisation reeking of despair and despondency. The architect of this apocalypse is the Lich; a mysterious mage with ambitions of annihilation. Their castle hangs over the once the remains of the once prosperous city of Luxenveld, once a centre of learning and trade, now little more than a rotting carcass teeming with Void-spawned abominations. One final day remains to confront the Lich, stop their ritual, and restore the world to what it once was. You and your friends have already journeyed together for some time, and have made a name for yourselves as heroes to the survivors who remain. You are their final hope. But as you climb the broken steps of the Lich's castle to face them, you can't shake this chilling sense of a deja vu. Hasn't this all happened before? In case it wasn't clear, this is a time-loop campaign; face the Lich, die, wake up, and do it all over again. But with every loop, you learn something new. Can you uncover the secrets of the Lich? Who are they, and why do they seem so intent on bringing an end to existence? What about your own past, the details of which seem hazier with each new death? And what of the stories of your fellow survivors, who grapple with their own mortality as they face the end of the world? This campaign is right for you if: - You're looking for a moody dark fantasy vibe that feels like a slow descent into madness. - Deep diving into a smaller setting where you get to explore its hidden depths in detail. - A small, eclectic cast of NPCs that you get to build deeper relationships with. Will you help them find hope in the face of annihilation? - Solving mysteries; each new day is a chance to obtain a piece of the wider puzzle. - Non-linear, sandbox adventures. Your time is precious, it's up to you to decide how you use it. - Tense, tactical combat where death matters. Just because you'll come back to life the next day doesn't mean their aren't consequences.
