Welcome to the Realm of Astron. Glory Awaits—If You Survive It.
You've just made a life-altering choice: to join the infamous Black Dragon Syndicate, leaving behind your old life to carve a new legacy. Whether you were once a humble farmer, a disgraced knight, or a cunning rogue, you've pledged your steel to the Syndicate and its mission—defending the realm of Astron from the chaos that festers in its shadows. Start your journey at level 3, and rise through the ranks as one of Astron’s deadliest mercenaries, hopefully achieving level 20.
This is a high-fantasy, mission-based campaign built for players who love the thrill of bounty hunting, dungeon crawling, and shaping a story that’s just as full of grit and gold as it is of tragedy and triumph. Every week, you'll vote on fresh missions from the Syndicate’s Bounty Board—from rooting out bandit lords in cursed ruins to uncovering ancient horrors hidden beneath quiet villages. Or, forge your own path with full sandbox freedom if your party wants to go off-book and find trouble on your terms.
Think of it like a Saturday morning adventure show: "Next week, on Adventures in Astron...!" Bring your character. Bring your ambition. Bring your favorite weapon. Whether you want to save the world or burn it for coin, the Syndicate has room for you—just don’t expect it to be easy. Justice is messy. Glory is optional. Gold is guaranteed.
This is a West Marches style campaign on StartPlaying. West Marches games are typically ran as “drop-in / drop-out” campaigns, where a pool of players hop into sessions as they are available or as sessions align with their schedules. These games focus on a player-led story and exploration, with each session acting as a self contained adventure, allowing for players to experience a variety of stories within an overarching campaign.
