About the adventure
Crown of the Oathbreaker is a dark adventure campaign. The story is set in multi-layered sandbox realms, in which the players will uncover dark secrets from the past of a royal family after the fall of a blessed era and break a curse that plagues the kingdom. The players will have to explore lands ravaged by the curse and travel to the Feyrealm, the Shadowrealm, and even Hell, where they will face hard moral dilemmas before saving the crown from the dreadful effects of an otherwise inevitable pact. A sinister bargain has caused suffering for the people of the land and has created a mad witch-knight hungering for revenge. The adventure is partially set in Aglarion, a blossoming kingdom where all intelligent races are part of society and live in tolerance. This means that players can choose to play exotic monstrous races and still function effectively throughout the adventure. _______________________________________________________________________ Torrents of the Spellhoarder is a high-level adventure set across the storm-wracked ocean world of Xantharos and the mysterious depths of the Calhay Sea. Designed for characters level 16–20, this campaign sends players into a world of twisting currents, ancient magic, and rising doom. Blending intrigue with epic, high-stakes battles, Torrents of the Spellhoarder challenges players to navigate political tensions, unravel hidden truths, and face enemies of mythic scale. Though crafted as a sequel to Crown of the Oathbreaker, this adventure stands fully on its own.

About me
Welcome Adventurers! I have been playing and running TTRPG for 20 years. I try to make my games as immersive as possible by using a massive collection of ambient music, character voicing, and even some cosplay nights! I love learning new systems and games so nothing is off the table! If you have some obscure or niche game that you would like to play I am always down to try it out. I have run very complex games like EXALTED to very simple games like Goblin Quest and my preferred style is somewhere in the middle with a heavy focus on narrative and fun at the table.

What Jonny | Badger Den Games brings to the table
- I hope to bring you all a grand adventure that you remember forever! - VTT Fantasygrounds Ultimate for character sheets, tokens and more - A growing Discord community where you can find other players to share your hobby with - A large library of books, homebrew maps, soundscapes and dungeons that continually gets added to I enjoy using different voices to denote a variety of caricatures and making use of ambient sounds and music to help set the tone for the session. I don't expect players to use different character voices (but your welcome to) and the volume of background music/ambiance can be adjusted by the player to fit their comfort level. I am definitely a Rule of Cool GM but the rules are there for a reason and I will generally stay within reasonable bounds of them.
Homebrew rules
- Potion's Drinking a potion is a bonus action for yourself - Long Healing Instead of gaining all you HP back on a long rest you must spend your Hit Die to heal naturally, regaining half your HD back on a long rest. This does not effect magical healing. - Risk of Death Failed Death Saving throws persist until you complete a long rest. At the end of the encounter, your character gains +1 fatigue & strife for each failed Death Saving throw marked on their sheet. You can roll a Constitution Saving throw (DC 10 + half your character level) for each failed Death saving throw to negate your choice of 1 fatigue or strife for each success. After 3 failed Death Saving Throws you may choose to let your character die or choose from the following options - Blaze of Glory! Your character surges with temporary strength beyond their limitations, regaining 1/4 of your max HP and returning to the fight. You can act immediately with your full turn with every action you take being a critical success for the first round after choosing Blaze of Glory. If your character drops to 0 HP again for any reason they are dead. At the end of the encounter if your character is still alive they gain the Doomed condition. - Down, not out Your character is stabilized but remains unconscious. You immediately clear 1 failed Death Saving throw and after regaining consciousness develop a physical or mental injury based on the damage or effect that caused you to fall to 0 HP. These injuries can be healed over time by using magic or spending hit die directed at the injury for a cumulative total of 200 HP per injury. Magic and Hit Die spent in this way are still effective at healing your characters HP at the same time but you may spend more on the injury even if you are at full health. You may only choose this option once per long rest.
