I have an idea for a campaign centered around demons, tell me what you guys
Years ago, a demon lord created a massive rift to his layer of the abyss on the material plane with a powerful ritual. Demons poured out of the rift devastating the kingdoms around it and the corruption of the abyss began to spread out from the abyss. A great wizard sacrificed his life to cast a spell to halt the corruption and the surrounding kingdoms worked together to hold back the demons, halting the devastation caused by the rift and the demons. Today, however, the spell the wizard cast is fading and will soon fail altogether and a new offensive by the demons from the rift threatens to overwhelm the forces holding it back.
The characters are tasked with helping to deal with the demonic cults bent on undermining the efforts to hold back the demonic invaders and, later on, helping to construct an artifact capable of closing the rift forever. If they fail, the corruption of the abyss will spread across the world and demons will overwhelm its defenders and slaughter its inhabitants.
If this seems similar to the worldwound in Pathfinder, it served as an inspiration for this plot. I might even make a 5e version of Deskari the final boss.
