About the adventure
Tired of just running modules week to week? Bored with limited ability to bring your characters to life? If so then this campaign is for you! The group will be able to use any and every option for crafting and development allowed. Explore the Bastion system and build a fortress, an arcane tower, a keep or a dungeon of your own! Craft powerful magical items. Own a skyship. Fight off enemies who want to steal what you have amassed. This campaign will mix in 'salvage missions' similar to the Oracle of war series as well as the Bastion system introduced in 2024 edition and Eberron Forge of the Artificer.

What John DM/Player brings to the table
"The more you put into the game, the more you will get out" is how I approach DMing. Expect to really make your character come to life as I will be asking what your character does in their downtime. I will bring people from your character's background or family into the story. I want this campaign to be about your amazing characters and who they are, not just the treasure and accomplishments they have gained. I am a 'rule of cool' DM but I also add in a bit of realism when needed. I'm not opposed to rules discussions as long as they don't disrupt gameplay.
