    About the adventure

    📖 The Stone of Erat, a magical sphere called Golem Maker, is being held by an organizational collective of mages known as the Elemental Protectorate. The party is asked to infiltrate their magical tower, the Scripting Bastion, in the capital city of Rak'Golin and return the stone to it's rightful owner. 🐲 D&D 5e open-world homebrew! Erethor is a place where powerful celestial deities once walked the Plane, since departed after a cataclysmic event called The Shattering. Mechanical birds from Tal'Hraat serve as messengers between cities; Illithid pilgrimage for safe refuge in the Gloam; Elves in Orkystra convert music to energy; and tensions run high in the bifurcated city of Courin'Dos amid an uneasy truce between Empires. Cities in Erethor host unique settings - whether you find yourself in the City of Language at Rak'Golin, the City of Birds in Tal'Hraat, the Elven Isle of Lanthaius the Unseen, or somewhere new, Erethor provides much to explore! 🌄🎭 Empasis is on exploration and role-play, with some combat. We start with introductions, review house rules, behavior guidelines, and safety tools. Multiple short breaks are built-in to the session for restroom and hydration. I encourage you to ask questions, use "I" statements, call other players by their character name, mute your mic during background noise, shout-out when you need a break, stay present during the game. I follow the Rule of Cool (bending rules if it makes the players look cool). ⚔️ This is a D&D 5e one-shot adventure for 2-5 players ­­­» Bring a Level 5 character + 1 free common healing potion » Create on D&D Beyond, a paper character sheet, or message me on Discord for a pre-made » Send me a small image you'd like to use as your character token on Discord » Share your character's name, ethnicity, and class with me before the game » Use Point Buy or Standard Array for stats.
