About the adventure
For centuries, the legend of Ashvanyr, the Storm of Scales, has been nothing more than whispers in the dark—an ancient dragon whose wrath was sealed away by forgotten magic. But now, something stirs. A ruthless sorceress has emerged from the shadows, stealing powerful relics and leaving a trail of chaos in her wake. The Phoenix Aegis, a key to Ashvanyr’s eternal prison, has vanished, and with it, hope of keeping the beast contained. As ominous storms gather and ancient omens resurface, the world teeters on the brink of devastation. Heroes are needed—bold souls willing to delve into forgotten ruins, face horrors of fire and shadow, and uncover the truth before it’s too late. Will you stand against the coming storm, or be consumed by the flames of a dragon’s rebirth? In this high-stakes campaign of intrigue, danger, and epic adventure, your choices will shape the fate of the world. The storm is rising. Will you be the ones to stop it?

About me
Greetings! I'm David, and I've been playing TTRPGs for over 20 years, and been running them as a DM/Storyteller for over fifteen years, mainly in D&D and Vampire: The Masquerade. My goal in hosting any game is to give the players the best experience possible, including ambient music and soundtracks, heavily modified and customized FoundryVTT tabletops with web-based hosting, help in learning the game's system and rules (yes, even if you are new!) and a *collaborative* storytelling experience that immerses you in the world we're exploring. What do I mean by collaborative storytelling? I strive to make every player feel included in both the group of players and in the telling of the actual story, whether it be high fantasy or modern day. My favorite and most memorable campaigns as a player have always brought the group of players together in telling a great story with input from everyone, not just the GM. That being said, the games I run tend to be more role-play than roll-play, so if that's something you're looking for, I hope to see you in a game sometime soon!
