🌴 Tomb of Annihilation | Gritty Jungle Campaign!

👑 | Premise:

Something evil has begun to appear around the realm. A malady of unknown origin targeting those who have died and been revived by magical means. They seem to be afflicted with strange rashes and describe an uncertain feeling of doom. Nobody knows exactly what this might be, or where it originates, but powerful divinations have shown the visage of Chult's jungles and ruins, and whispers speak of a dark presence brewing way deep within...
Many have travelled to Chult in search for answers, but only time may tell what awaits those daring or foolish enough to tread this dangerous and beautiful land filled with history and culture.

🔸| What is this?:

Tomb of Annihilation is a gritty and dangerous campaign that'll take you from levels 1-11~
The adventure will take you through Chult's jungles, beaches, mountains and swamps. Along the way, you will uncover ancient ruins and cultures lost to time or occupied by unexpected inhabitants with various agendas and motives driving them. Outsiders involving themselves in the matters of this land hailing from lands both close and far away, complicate matters even further, as everyone has something to gain from Chult's fate.

🌴 | Gameplay:

Tomb of Annihilation involves a lot of exploration through dangerous, dinosaur and undead infested lands. As such, a good portion of the adventure will include travelling through the hexes that make up this peninsula by land, air or sea. In doing so, you will encounter all the various denizens of this magical land, and will be faced with a variety of difficult situations that might be too much to face head-on in battle and will require careful negotiations, smart play or silent steps to avoid altogether.
While dangerous and highly lethal, this adventure will not be a meat-grinder. It will test your abilities and planning on the fly, as well as your morals and when to compromise them in favor of keeping you and your companions safe or gaining information.
In addition, through the use of various variant rules and modified mechanics both created by me and inspired by various sources, the feel of lethality and the ability to best death will be palpable, and every day you survive the jungles of Chult will make you sigh with relief.
The adventure will also include lots of delving through various ruins and the dangerous traps within. Historian or Archeologist characters, as well as other various types of sages and studiers of lore will be able to uncover the history of this land, learn the customs of Chult, and engage in Port Nyanzaru's various politics, as well as those from cultures outside the city port's walls.
