About the adventure
Within the rolling green fields of Oriast a blight has begun to spread, destroying every crop it touches. The druids to whom people would normally turn to in such dire times have disappeared. Beasts now run amok across the land, twisted by dark magic almost beyond recognition. Bounties have been placed on the worst of these foul creatures and rewards given to anyone who can find any druids powerful enough to cleanse the earth before the people starve. 🟣 Hunt ferocious beasts twisted by dark magic 🟣 Search abandoned Druid Groves for clues 🟣 Research a cure to the Blight before the people starve 🟣 Define the future of the world with your choices

View Profile →Character creation
Creating your character
Characters will be created during Session Zero together as a group. Any player that joins afterwards will have to attend a Session Zero with me by themselves that will last about an hour, going over the current campaign and character creation. Characters that join later into a campaign will be at the same level and XP as the rest of the group. Any player that joins can freely change anything they wish about their character for their first 4 sessions of the campaign. After that 4th session any changes made to their heritage, class, subclass etc will be told through the narrative of the campaign.
The Group so far is: A Revenant Shadow A Dwarf Tactician A Dwarf Fury A Polder Summoner

Safety
How Sphinx creates a safe table
During Session Zero you will be given a lines and veils document to fill out. I also provide Stars and Wishes channels within the Discord and have Table Safety modules installed on Foundry. You can always message me whenever you need to! Also during Session Zero we will as a group set the tone of the campaign and the expectations of the group as a whole. For those that join afterwards they will be told what the consensus is during their Session Zero with me and it will be advertised in the party details section of the listing.
