About the adventure

Five years into an armistice that ended a decade of warfare, the threat of renewed conflict looms over the continent of Althas. Five nations in a delicate web of alliances and rivalries seek to exploit the opportunities granted by this period of rapid magical, political, and social change. All five nations deploy agents to strengthen alliances, sabotage foes, and tip the balance of power in their favor. In a Five Banners Burning campaign, you’ll play heroes caught up in the twisting and ever-escalating conflict between nations, contending with competing loyalties, generational grudges, and opportunistic villains. 🏛️ Political intrigue 🌟 Character-focused subplots 🧝‍♂️ Intriguing NPC interactions 🔥 Immersive action 🎙️ Voice acting

About me

Howdy, I'm Alan and I tend to allow shenanigans at my table! The first time I ever played a role-playing game, we used the manual for Icewind Dale 2, since actual rulebooks were not available in our quaint Polish town. Things have changed since then. I have a beard now! And actual rulebooks. My actual play inspirations are Dimension 20 and NADDPOD. I enjoy crafting stories with my players, designing surprising encounters, and doing silly voices. I strive to mix old-school charm with modern-day sensibilities.

How Alan creates a safe table

I make use of lines and veils and work to help my players feel safe and comfortable during play. Everything will be discussed during session 0. My games are neurodivergent and LGBTQ+ friendly, as I myself am both.
