Jotunheim is a world where giants still rule over smaller peoples, as Annam intended. The Thousand-Year War was won by giants, and now dragon-kind is extinct. The All-Father never turned his back on his children and rather remains active in Jotunheim. The six Scion of giants' gods hold the sky in place, keeping the Elemental Chaos away. Humanoids live in the realms of giants as valued citizens.
Except in Bjarmaland, here Jötnar (frost giants) hold regular contests in the great Holmgang, an arena where humanoids fight creatures and each other for survival. Winners get wealth, and losers die.
The campaign is mainly combat-focused with either team-based combat or one-on-one combat. All will mostly be accepted except for Homebrew races or feats (Shall need review). Characters applications shall adhere to the following.
All characters shall start at level 1 and stats will only be by Standard Array. Characters shall only start with a single choice of weapon, armour, and spellcasting focus(if needed). Backstory is optional, it would be used to help the announcer introduce your character. Character progression will be XP-based, as to motivate more aggressive behavior. Winning rounds and killing other PCs shall be rewarded in XP. There is no permanent Character Death unless the player wishes for it, any killed character shall be revived outside the colosseum and taken out of combat. To clarify rewards, it shall follow a tier system.
Levels 1-4: Uncommon magic items, spell scrolls for spell level 1-2, 100-200 GP Levels 5-10: Rare magic items, spell scrolls for spell level 3-5, 500-1000 GP, May grant feat of player's choice Levels 11-16: Very Rare magic items, spell scrolls for spell level 6-8, 1000+ GP, May grant feat of player's choice, May grant a boon to player (DM's choice) Levels 17-19: Legendary magic items, spell scrolls for spell level 9, May grant feat or boon of the player's choice Level 20: Audience with Thrym
