Wildemount - Unwelcome Spirits

About the adventure

When an elder seer of the swamp village of Urzin is kidnapped by soldiers of the Dwendalian Empire, the village's leadership look to a group of rookie adventurers to rescue her before it's too late. This adventure introduces players to the Xhorhas region of Wildemount, as seen on Critical Role, and takes characters from 1st to 3rd level. It's a race against time to traverse the wild Brokenveil Marsh and rescue the seer from the imperial garrison at Fort Venture. Player characters should be prepared to get their boots muddy! An overview of the setting will be given in session 0, so no prior experience or knowledge is required. New players are welcome. This setting features a diverse cast of NPCs representing a variety of backgrounds and identities. This game is DMed by a queer person, who welcomes members of the LGBTQIA community, and allies, to the virtual table. Each session includes a 10 minute break around halfway through. Discord will be used for voice chat, and video for those who wish to be seen. Roll20 will be used for maps. Drop me a message on Discord (The Galosheen#1897) if you have any further questions or accessibility needs.
