About the adventure
Campaign Ten years ago, two gods' feud tore reality apart. Earth merged with the fantasy realm of Aenox in a cataclysm survivors call "The Merge," and the world never put itself back together the same way. Corroded highways wind past overgrown ruins, humans and fantasy races share the same crumbling infrastructure, and a strange dust from the wound between worlds still lingers in the corners of things. You'll play survivors in the transformed San Fernando Valley, where old landmarks have found new lives — a museum turned fortified home base, familiar buildings repurposed for entirely unfamiliar purposes. Small settlements are how people survive out here — found families patched together from whoever happened to end up in the same place, building something worth defending out of scavenged parts, farmed fields, and hard-won trust. This is a true sandbox: the world remembers what you do. NPCs you've helped remember it, factions you've met react to how you handled them, and the home you build is genuinely yours — shaped session by session by what the party chooses to care about. The tone is funny and a little absurd — magic hookahs, skeleton pets ridden by field mice, a crockpot that only does "high" — anchored by real stakes and real relationships. It rewards curiosity, creativity, and getting attached to people and places, because this world gives you plenty of both to lose and plenty worth protecting. Setting Welcome to LEVAIN, a world where two realities became one. When Earth merged with the fantasy realm of Aenox, it created a unique landscape where crumbling highways wind past enchanted forests, and abandoned shopping malls serve as fortresses against magical creatures. Small settlements are scattered across a world where both technology and magic coexist. Survivors from both worlds—humans and fantasy races now share the same transformed landscape. This is a world where the remnants of two civilizations blend into something entirely new.

About me
I'm Sov, full-time GM, system designer, and adventure writer. The first time I sat down at a TTRPG table, I went home and started writing. My own worlds, my own mechanics, my own stories. That creative drive never stopped and eventually became a career. I run exclusively original settings: entirely my own worlds, with their own lore, stories, creatures, and characters. I'm currently developing two original game systems alongside a D&D guildbook. I build worlds with weight: real history, powers with agendas, people with lives beyond what your characters need from them. Your characters live inside that world, and what they do genuinely matters. A story that couldn't have happened without the specific people sitting at that specific table.
