Welcome to Sands of Doom, a dark fantasy desert campaign where the last great city of the wasteland, Al-Kirat, stands as a fragile bastion against the ruthlessness of the desert. Traders, mercenaries, scholars, and fortune-seekers gather within its walls, all chasing wealth, power, or forgotten knowledge buried beneath the dunes.
As newcomers you will explore ruined temples, uncover long-buried secrets, navigate dangerous factions, and confront horrors left behind by a civilization that should have remained forgotten.
This campaign focuses on immersive storytelling, exploration, and meaningful choices, with a tone that blends harsh survival with epic adventure.
Campaign Features • A vast desert setting filled with ancient ruins and dangerous mysteries • Political intrigue and factions within the last surviving city of Al-Kirat • Exploration of cursed tombs and forgotten temples • A slowly unfolding threat that grows into a region-spanning conflict • Challenging but fair combat with strong narrative focus
Game Details System: D&D 5e Platform: Roll20 + Discord Starting Level: 1 Session Length: 3–4 hours Cost: $15 per session (session 0+1 is free) Spots: 1/5 Time: Saturdays 2pm EST
I have been Dming in 5e for 5+ years and enjoy running dark and somewhat serious campaigns. I focus on engaging players, atmosphere, and a compelling narrative, while keeping the game approachable for newer players. Session 0 will cover expectations, character creation, and making sure the group fits together well. If you enjoy desert survival, ancient mysteries, dark fantasy worlds, and long-form storytelling, this campaign might be exactly what you’re looking for.

The desert is not empty.
It is waiting.
