System: DND 5e 2014 Date(s)/Time(s): Sundays 8:30PM EST (4 Hours weekly)
Context: This is a campaign that has been running for more than a year and the players are currently level 10. They are about to enter Level 11 soon. The party needs one new player to come in. The campaign was built around the player characters as the focus of the story.
Player Requirements: Mircrophone for Discord, Roll20 for Battlemap
Player Role Needed: A female vampire whom is the daughter of the Vampire King. She will come in as Level 10. She can be any class.
Storytelling Style: The campaign I run is usually about 70 percent role play, story, narrative building, developement building, political building, investigation, discovery, exploration and the other 30 percent is combat based.
The Plot/ TLDR is at the bottom In the material plane, in the realm of Nirman, In the Age of the Mother Soulweaver, she had successfully subdued the gods, powerful entities like Death himself, and weaved the hearts of mortals against each other. The Mother Soulweaver admired the mortals as toys for her entertainment. Drunk in power and in her lust. In a desparate moment, the entity known as Life and the other known as Death created the first chaos magic. An unstable energy of magic itself, that could rupture through the Mother Soulweaver’s threads. For decades, Life would seek out righteous heroes capable of wielding such power, freeing the gods and destroying the Mother Soulweaver. Death looked through the hordes of creatures of the night, of the hells and the abyss. Scouring those capable of wielding such power and to aid heroes chosen by Life. Overtime many stood out yet only six mortals could make the cut and survive the struggle until the bitter end. A dragon knight, a human vampire, a tabaxi druid, a yuan ti warlock, a human cleric and a dark elf hunter. These Six were chosen to go up against the Mother Soulweaver. The battle was furious. Both sides had exhausted their armies. This was the end and neither side was going to be able recover if they fell this time. The party and the Mother Soulweaver fought like demons. By the end of the cataclysmic battle, the dragon knight’s armour was lodged into his body. The vampire was slowly disintegrating in the rising sun with no where to hide for cover. The warlock desperately trying to keep the vampire out of the sunlight. The cleric trying to stabliize their unconscious druid. The hunter trying to keep the dragon knight awake until help came. Whilst the corpse of the Witch Queen that tormented the cosmos for 5000 years lay there dead. This felt more like a defeat than a victory. With the party being filled with despair, Death himself came and used his own body to shield the vampire from the sun by casting a great shadow.
Life commanded the dragonborn to live and he got up as if nothing happened. Life commanded the druid to awaken and so their druid awoke from his deep slumber. Though the cosmic war was over, there needed to be a rebuilding. A restoration of not just people’s lives but hope. Lady Life, offered godhood to the dragon knight for his righteous and blameless character. A role he accepted becoming the god of peace. Death offered the vampire to become an official house and be the first of his name by becoming the King of the Night creatures, bringing the first Vampire King into existence. A role he accepted by defeating all Eight Vampire Noble houses in single ritual combat under Death’s favour, effectively forcing peace between the living and the night. Life offered the druid to become the ArchGuardian of the Meadows, a role he accepted to honour his ancestors and nature. Death offered the warlock the mysteries of the cosmos and to be its protector from the horrors beyond mortal comprehension. A role he accepted giving him the title of the Black King. Despite ruling nothing, he stood at the top as the strongest mortal. Lady Life offered the cleric her own Citadel. A place to become the Grand Commander of everything that was sacred and holy and in pursuit of the preservation of life. A role she accepted to serve the recovering world. Death offered the hunter dominion over the afterlife. Being able to walk on rivers of the afterlife itself. A role she accepted to destroy the things that walk between life and death. They became known as the Legendary Six - revered like gods, treated like royalty, they stand at the top protecting Nirman. All these things happened thirty years ago.
Three big world events took place since the campaign started. The first one happened in the Druidic Meadows. About four months ago, Limber Stoneskin, and the druids were attacked by an army of Drow. A drider for the first time in 30 years was seen. Accompanying the drider, was a powerful undead with a greatsword. He fought Limber Stoneskin directly and unfortunately got the upper hand on Limber Stoneskin because Limber had to hold back to protect his Meadows, an advantage the undead took, killing him in the process. He declared war on the Legendary Six after killing Limber Stoneskin. It was the first time in 30 years a member of the Legendary Six was defeated and it broke the hearts of many.
The second big event in the world was about one month and a half ago, when the Great Red Fire Dragon, Lord Valgore was in the Dou Xia'n (a Chinese-fantasy themed nation) for his overdue 5000 year old trial. It was a huge and popular case. Many made their way to the Dou Xia'n to learn the outcome of the trial. There present was the goddess of war (Aspect of wisdom) Lady Freya, god of war(Aspect of justice and peace) Lord Cinder Basilisk as well other ancient dragons such as the Jade Dragon Emperor.
Present at the trial was also Ne Zha and Wu Kong, two powerful celestial beings that made their home in the Dou Xia'n. During the trial, Salabana himself, god of the Shadowfell, first born and elder god of Manna attacked the trial with his crew made of an abyssal champion called Morgoth, a demi-goddess Morrigan, a chimeric monk called Guan, a powerful lich that kept his name hidden and a creature like a angel, covered in feathers whom called himself The Sage. During the fight in the capital of the Dou Xia'n city, Lord Dimitri turned up and fought against Salabana directly. He nearly died in the process against the elder god but he also delivered just as much punishment on Salabana and that is when the party discovered he was suppose to be on Salabana's side. Dimitri had been playing Salabana's group for a very long time and never intended to join their side of the conflict. The gods were triumphant against Salabana's group as the attackers decided to retreat as they could not fight both Lord Cinder and Lord Dimitri on the same side.
The third and latest big event which happened about two weeks and ago was when the gods finally decided to launch a divine assault on the demon principality Molag Bal. A demon principality that ruled outside of the layers of the hells and had his own special domain called ColdHarbour. A sadistic demon that preys on women whom had arisen to power about 2000 years ago. With the party having managed to snag his leg in an initial conflict, the demon could no longer escape in his hidden domain due to a tracking enchantment cast over his leg. It was a glorious assault, one that would be recorded in history itself. Your character would've been present for this assault with your order of the Knights of Unum. It was the second time in your life you witnessed the Lord Cinder Basilisk lead the charge from the Heavens itself with an army of warriors that served the light.
The army was made of Lord Dralnas, god of fire, Lady Freya, goddess of war, Lord Cinder Basilisk, Lady Evergreen (cleric of the Legendary Six like Cinder), angels from the Heavens, Knights of Unum, vampire soldiers from the Dark Domain, dragons on the side of mortals, druids from the Meadows, elves from the Elven nations, paladins and clerics from the White Citadel, even the Black Marsh (the mafia of the campaign) joined the assault on ColdHarbour. When Lord Cinder Basilisk called for war and justice, many swarmed in droves to answer the call.
As you were present with the army that had come to bring deliverance for the souls trapped, you entered a domain of utter cruelty and fought brutally against demons, monsters, abominations in swarms of Molag Bal's forces. The gods cleared most of the path for the army to advance however Molag Bal had a trick up his sleeve. He had made a bargain with the The Serpent, one of the three rulers of the Abyss. The three gods and Lady Evergreen had to engage The Serpent, a gargantuan creature that devoured the light or all would've been lost in vain.
The fighting was brutal. Death came at every corner. All you know is a party that had the daughter of the Black King Jormungandr and an Archdruidess brought down Molag Bal, causing the realm to begin to collapse. In an act of desperate madness to buy time for the soldiers to rescue the victims and get the army out, Lord Cinder held off The Serpent by himself kicking out Lady Freya, Lord Dralnas and Lady Evergreen in the process to save them.
A near death Lady Freya, Lord Dralnas and Lady Evergreen were simultaneously and craftily captured by Salabana's forces.
A remnant splinter of the army stayed behind in the collapsing domain to hold the line against the ravaging horde of the demons from attacking those carrying victims. They wished to stand as the rearguard with their Lord Cinder Basilisk against The Serpent's forces in Coldharbour. You would've gladly stayed holding the rearguard but you were given orders to get the women out. And as as you looked behind as the portal collapsed upon itself, you saw former comrades and the last light of the great dragon knight Cinder Basilisk shine one last time amidst the dark realm before being snuffed out vanishing completely.
A week ago, you heard a very special party formed by a certain vampire Lord apparently managed to rescue Lady Evergreen (cleric of the six) from the demi-goddess Morrigan. It was the first goodnews since the war on Coldharbour. And you've been considering joining this party in hopes you may return your uncle and Lord to his rightful place.
**TLDR** In the material plane, your homeworld, Six Heroes thirty years ago defeated the Mother Soulweaver. The goddess of fate itself that tried to take free will from everything in the created cosmos. These Six became known as the Legendary Six, the dragon knight ascended to godhood, the vampire became the first Vampire King, the druid became the Archdruid of the Meadows, the gentle cleric became the Grand Commander of every Paladin and Clerical Order, the drow became a Fleet Admiral now holding the line between the Astral Realm and the material plane whilst their sorcerer became the Black King, singlehandedly putting himself in between the Void and creation to prevent abominations from coming in. You will be coming in to fill a plot critical position for the party. The party just learnt the truth from the gorgon Medusa, that the Mother Soulweaver reincarnated as Athena the new Demon Principality of the Plane of Lust in the Hells after she was slain!
