The White Oak, the heart of human civilization, is lately starting to decay. No one knows the cause of this and the emperor of the Western Kingdom, Gerald Ingelrandus, demanded his advisor to assemble a group of brave heroes who will seek the cause of this horrendous event. The task itself is very simple, end it before there’s nothing left of the oak.
You have built up quite a reputation in Gloomhaven and it didn't get unnoticed by the emperor. He has demanded his advisor, Torok, to meet you in the Sleeping Lion, a tavern in Gloomhaven. You and your party are intrigued by the emperor's request and are willing to help.
“So you are the famous party that the emperor has requested for?” The Vallrath looks at you, squeezing his impenetrable black eyes. “I must say, I’m not impressed! But fair enough, the emperor has shown faith in your capabilities.” Torok takes out a small golden knife and starts cleaning his nails. He wears a long red robe with golden decorations on his shoulders. The clothing underneath is elegant and by the looks of it very expensive. His skin is light red and his horns are smaller than you’re used to by his kin, “Some reports came in that cultists are active in a crypt near Daggerforest.” He looks at his nails, who weren't dirty at all in the first place. The Valrath takes out a map of the area and marks the crypt with his knife. “I want you to start investigating that area and report your findings back to me. A fee of 10 gold pieces each will wait for you for compensation!"
You feel a certain tension in the room and saying no doesn't feel like an option.
What do you do?
Hi all!
This going to be a relaxed adventure, no pressure whatsoever. Ill try to post on a daily basis. The setting of the adventure is Gloomhaven. (For those unfamiliair with Gloomhaven, it is a dungeoncrawler boardgame with pre written adventures.)
For this campaign i'm looking for a group of 4 to 5 players that want to work as a party. The main plot line is written, enough sidequests to explore.
I made a v0.1 site with races (which are the default d&d races but with some differences. I will update this later on and notify the people who chosen that specific race.) If you have any suggestions, let me know!
Right now im looking for some character sheet(concepts) so we can start playing. Please make your backstory so you are part of this group. If you have any thoughts to hop in from another direction let me know.
Interested. What would you like to do for stat generation? Roll, Point buy, or standard array? Are we to use one of the listed races, or do we get to use other races besides those listed?
The harrower will be one the races that will get a full overhaul. I was thinking of the following:
Idea:
Hive mind: deal a 1D4 melee attack to all enemies in a 10ft radius Nightmarish nature: All melee attacks give the target a disadventage to the harrower Ever-breeding nature: At the end of every round, the harrower will heal 1hp ability score improv: +4 constitution Can only equip cloth armor Can not equip great weapons
Interested. What would you like to do for stat generation? Roll, Point buy, or standard array? Are we to use one of the listed races, or do we get to use other races besides those listed?
You can use point buy. You can only pick the new races
Updated the site with a brief overview of the locations.
Starting area will be Gloomhaven. Would be nice if we can form a party. The adventure begins at "The Sleeping Lion"
At work right now, so can't do that much. Would be nice if we can get a group of 4 or 5 characters. 4 people reacted so far, i will reserve a spot for them unless they don't want to participate, let me know then.
For the Harrower, rather than disadvantage maybe something to the effect of minus -1d4 damage from single target effect? I'm not seeing why a sword attack would have less chance if hitting than an arrow.
So 2 spots reserved for DragonDenn and Seldim, unless they dont respond with a yes in 48h. Then some time to create a character, i've you have any questions regarding the races or world, let me know
One spot left for a 5th player, or you can opt in for reserve list
I was thinking a Inox berserker druid? Maybe multiclassing into fighter down the line. If the party turns out too spellcaster heavy I'm happy to switch.

I took a quick look and the races seem interesting to play. Do you plan on using this site for the character sheets?
Is it played with the dungeons and dragons rules or does it use a different system?
For now i did it on the site. Was planning to put it in d&d beyond homebrew.
Maybe will rework some race skills.
Yes, d&d rules 5e are being used.
Interested. What would you like to do for stat generation? Roll, Point buy, or standard array? Are we to use one of the listed races, or do we get to use other races besides those listed?
Very interested! How would you like us to proceed from here? Do you want character concepts?

That Harrower seems very interesting.

Nightmarish nature: All melee attacks give the target a disadventage to the harrower
Ever-breeding nature: At the end of every round, the harrower will heal 1hp
ability score improv: +4 constitution
Can only equip cloth armor
Can not equip great weapons
You can use point buy.
You can only pick the new races
You can make a character concept, but like I said, the characters can get changed.
I'm planning to update later today/tomorrow with more info over the surrounding area's and cities.
Updated the site with a brief overview of the locations.

I just posted an introduction story in my main post. So, who wants to participate? Let get this adventure going!! We'll see where we end up :)
I'd be down.
Let's do it!

Awesome! I'm excited :)
So 2 spots reserved for DragonDenn and Seldim, unless they dont respond with a yes in 48h.

Sound great, I'll have a character ready by the end of the day :)
What is everyone thinking character wise?
I've been trying to play a storm sorcerer for a while, I just need to finish reading about all races to think of a name and a backstory.
I am still interested. Have to read up on those races and the location again, but can probably get a character done later today.
The area around Galehaven is related to air. Still needs some forming on my side, but open to suggestions through your backstory
Will we need to make the races is dnd beyond, just tried searching for the Harrower but could find one.
I was thinking a Inox berserker druid? Maybe multiclassing into fighter down the line. If the party turns out too spellcaster heavy I'm happy to switch.
