SCARRED LANDS: DEAD MAN'S RUST - A 5e Campaign For Levels 1-10!
The Scarred Lands need heroes! Investigate a mysterious plague in the Hornsaw Forest, fight among the Hollow Legionnaires and face evil necromancers!
About the adventure
At the Night of Chronicles in the city of Leoni, the adventurers enjoy a wild revel. Opportunity arises when the aging bard Dradoki Bronzeleaf hires the party to escort him to the Broadreach Horizon. The perilous voyage takes the group through titanspawn infested lands, but should they survive, they arrive at the last bastion of uncorrupted wood in the Hornsaw Forest. There they meet the clans of the Broadreach elves and a century of hollow legionnaires dispatched to the Forest of Blood to offer aid and friendship. But a dark shadow looms over the accursed wood. The necromancers of Glivid-Autel sew corruption and death throughout the Hornsaw Forest. Legionnaires, elves, and dwarves go missing. A horrific infection appears, seeming to target the legionnaires. The people of Broadreach call upon the adventurers to stand against these foul machinations that threaten peace, prosperity, and life itself across central Ghelspad. The party may find allies in the Broadreach Horizon, the Gleaming Valley, and perhaps even the bloody canopies of the Hornsaw Forest, if they are brave enough to answer the call to adventure!

Character creation
Creating your character
We will meet to create characters during session zero. While characters from any OGL 5e setting are possible, Scarred Lands characters using the peoples and subclasses from Scarred Lands Players Guide, Yugmans Guide to Ghelspad, or Dead Man's Rust are encouraged. Should players wish to join after the campaign is underway, I will meet individually with the new player before the next scheduled session to create the new player's character.
What to expect
Preparing for the session
Mic is needed, camera optional. We will use Roll 20 for character management, as this makes it a bit easier to handle 3rd Party content such as new peoples, classes, and subclasses.
What Travis Legge brings to the table
I'll provide access to all necessary digital materials in order to create and maintain the party's characters.
Homebrew rules
All Scarred Lands material will be used.

Safety
How Travis Legge creates a safe table
We will meet during session zero to discuss the themes and moods we wish to explore, as well as discuss our Yes Gos (things we would like to see in the campaign) and our No Gos (things we'd prefer to avoid) I'll send out discord, D&D Beyond, and Roll20 links when players register.
