Welcome everyone! I am Blank, 33M and looking to set sail on a new adventure! I'm an experienced D&D 5e DM, and looking for three- four players to start a game within the setting of Plane Shift: Ixalan (based on MTG setting). Please note: you do not need any prior knowledge of Ixalan to join the game - I will not be adhering strictly to the MTG lore. I am looking for players who wish to develop a fun collective story together, know that they can be engaged, with more of a focus on Roleplay.

Setting
The Ixalan setting is an analogue of the Age Of Discovery; with the Ixalan natives being attacked and slowly conquered by zealous vampires who take the form of conquistadors. The continent is home to deadly animals and dinosaurs (wild and domesticated), warriors, pirate groups, treasure hunters and all manner of interesting characters. The land is home to uncharted jungles, dangerous beasts, lost treasures and magnificent ruins.

I have titled the adventure “Ixalan: Traitors & Tyrants” - this adventure will start with characters in a city named Fortress Leor that has been taken and controlled by Vampires from the Legion Of Dusk. The characters begin by joining an underground resistance movement in an attempt to incite a rebellion and overthrow the conquering overlords through intrigue, sabotage, espionage, assassination - really whatever the characters can think of to further the goal of freedom. However, the Vampires have brought a sense of stability, investment in infrastructure, protection, and removed the corruption of the ruling class, allowing their form of justice available to the common citizen. Many have grown comfortable with this arrangement, and do not wish to see their city fall into the chaos of guerrilla warfare in the name of liberation, only to be beaten down by corrupt rich merchants once again.

*Three Years Ago
The city of Fort Leor, a once-prosperous hub, now lies in a state of decay. The streets are filled with the destitute, their hollow eyes reflecting the crumbling buildings around them. A lone messenger, his sandals bloodied from his frantic run, weaves through the narrow alleys and bustling crowds. His destination: the opulent palace at the heart of the city.

Inside the palace, a stark contrast to the squalor outside, wealth and excess abound. The ruler of Fort Leor, an immensely fat man draped in jewels and silks, lounges among piles of gold and lavish furnishings. Slaves attend to his every whim while courtiers flatter him. The messenger bursts into the throne room, gasping for breath.
"Intruder!" the ruler bellows, ordering the messenger's death without a second thought.

Before the guards can seize him, the messenger shouts his urgent message:
"The vampires have reached the shore!"*
