The Mouth of Doom

Campaign in Gylidd

Saturdays 8 pm - 12 am

DM Benjamin

This game is invitation only.
This serial campaign is heavy on Roleplaying, Combat, and Exploration, and is designed for a team of 6-8 characters with a generally heroic alignment.
It has the following themes: Serious, Pathos, Arena, Horror, Politics, Intrigue, and Adventure.
It takes place in the Realm of Gylidd.

Advocate Amrith Hogaine, Chair of the Civic Synod of Gylidd Syn Aethri, has had horrible dreams of late. The peace of the city he’s watched over for hundreds of years has been as constant as his own stewardship, until now. Now he sees a shadow looming in the east, a creeping malevolence growing in power whose presence can be felt everywhere - even within the Heartswood.

The implications of such magic overpowering the sacred forest are dire indeed. However, none of the other Ministers of Gylidd have shared these omens, leaving Hogaine with only one recourse to ensure anxiety and fear do not spread from his nightmares.

Using a network of subtle contacts, Hogaine has tapped the leader of the Gylidd Wrenjers — a legendary Orc Hunter named Kobeck Huaru — to quietly petition the adventurers in the city with a quest. These intrepid souls would be sent to the eastern forests of Gylidd to uncover the truth of this darkness or dispel it, while Hogaine looks on and hopes against his instincts that his fears are unfounded.
