so let’s escape into a world of fantasy! I will be DMing anything from t1-4 depending on my table : )
Will be there to play T4, hopefully. Otherwise would join Bufobufo, if she DMs the Red Hand again. This time I might bring the Professor in to provide long-range teleporting.
This Episode 9: The Deep Alliance
In which we will play dwarf politics.
Explanation
This is a small mini-campaign for V.A.L.U.E. that is open to new and recurring players. This small campaign will lead from T2 to T4 and is about a peaceful community facing a coming enemy. The setting is the Forgotten Realms.
Background
Elsir vale is a rather thinly populated 250 mile long vale. This frontier region has few large towns, the largest one being Brindol, which is also the capital of the region. This subtropical region is peaceful most of the time. However this is changing. Dark times are coming to Elsir Vale and enemy forces are amassing on the borders.
You are a special military unit from Brindol sent to investigate strange happenings in the border regions of the land. Are you prepared to face what is to come?
History
Elsir Vale lies along the Dawn Way, an important trade route. The first settlers of this land were dwarves that built a great kingdom in Wyrmsmoke and Giantshield mountains. Even now aqueducts and cisterns are present in the land. After this kingdom passed into the annals of history, humans began to settle the land, first druidic communities, later founding the kingdom of Rhaestilor. Two hundred years ago the kingdom was destroyed by a horde of goblins. Now the land is less centralized with the biggest powers being the cities of Dennovar and Brindol. There are also other communities such as Drellin’s Ferry, the Hammerfist Holds, Elsircross, Marthon, Nimon’s Gap and Red Rock
Downtime activities: Please do only one, with the exception of Decoding
Pulling Teeth (5 Downtime Days)
You take apart the corpse of Regiarix, the Ebon death to farm him for ingredients. Maybe you can craft something out of him.
Brothers of Stone (5 Downtime Days)
You decide to research the culture and history of the dwarves of the Hammerfist Holds, but hopefully this time you get the right sources.
Draconic History (5 Downtime Days)
You attempt to find out more about the dragons who are the companions of the Wyrmlords. Maybe you find out something about their strengths and even weaknesses.
The Past is Skindeep (5 Downtime Days, 300gp or 600gp, and a good story)
You go to Kaseide Inkweaver and tell her a good epic story about your previous adventures. She will tattoo this story on your back with magical tattoo ink, so that stories might empower you in the future.
Researching the Dragonspawn (5 Downtime days)
You talk to the scouts and hunters about the Dragonspawn to find out more about their strengths and weaknesses.
Important Notes
Still under contract with Meepo
Harvesting draconic raw materials and crafting sounds reasonable!
Otherwise I’d run a T1-3 Adventure or join a game depending on what everyone else is up to
Looking forward to join RHoD again with Eskel, for Dawntime activity it’s already decided to be “Raise Dead”. Goliaths are fond of Dwarves according to the lore, so hopefully it’s gonna be helpful.
Fluffyfoot still has a contract to fulfill, if he loses his trail now, who knows how long it will take to track him down again.
I’d like to join RHoD if possible.
New player here. I’d love to join a T1 game if anyone’s up for it
I’ll take another shot at DMing and will run an adventure called “Water” as a high T1/low T2 (LVL 4/5)
The adventure is about survival in difficult environmental conditions (including a new mechanic to track how these affect the characters). Choices and actions will matter and determine your chances of survival. Players that want to join can prepare by thinking about why their character would want to cross the ever-stormy ocean to participate in yearly wondrous event of the Silent Carnival.
Edit: If there are not enough players I can play any Tier
Sounds great!
I work till 7pm so I would be there at around 8, if anyone would not mind me joining at that hour (preferable a T1-low T2 table because I still don’t have any level 5 characters) then I would be up to joining this Friday too </3

Garas will be there and will be able to provide the teleportation services- also he has knowledge of the area so it probably will be safer than from some new strangers Also I like to study Draconic History

Count me in. After a long hiatus I’m back (for now)
Would prefer Cat’s table and Tier 2 or 3, but can do any table and any tier
