War in the Elsir Vale. For the most part, the Vale has rebuilt and
prospered, with leadership becoming more centralised under Brindol.
However, in recent decades, the power of House Jarmaath has waned, while
the other noble houses on the ruling council have steadily gained
influence. Rumors of corruption and infighting among the nobility
continue to spread.
The people of the Elsir Vale have grown increasingly uneasy. Threats
are on the rise, bandits and monsters roam the wilderness, orcs and
goblins raid outlying towns, and ever more disturbing rumors from the
west speak of orcs on the warpath.
In response to these dangers, the Vale has seen a rise in mercenary
activity. Hired blades take on whatever work they can find—caravan
protection, monster hunting, or guard duty—seeking coin where it's
offered. Meanwhile, the various town guards remain focused on
maintaining order within their own borders, leaving the roads and wilds
more vulnerable than ever.
With trade routes disrupted and the costs of rebuilding mounting,
House Jarmaath has lost much of its former wealth. Once a symbol of
prosperity, the house now looks outward, seeking new markets for the
goods the Vale produces in abundance. Our story begins abit later: Our story begins with our heroes, who have recently established
themselves as a mercenary company after successfully saving several
townsfolk of Brindol from the clutches of goblins. That was nearly six
weeks ago. Since their initial success, however, unseen forces have
spread vicious rumors about the party, so thoroughly that they haven’t
been able to secure any new work since.
Down on their luck, they begin hearing news from the far west: the
dwarven city of Overlook is calling for aid from adventurers and
sellswords. Orcs are on the warpath, and though Overlook is martial and
well-defended, a plea for reinforcements is not to be taken lightly.
As the heroes consider making the journey, they are approached by
Lady Cordelia, the current regent of Brindol while her father, Lord
Kerdan Jarmaath, is away on a diplomatic mission. She offers the heroes a
proposition: act as her escort to Overlook, and upon arrival become her
retained adventurers. In return, she promises a 10% bonus on top of any
pay earned while working in her name.
Desperate for work, the heroes accept the offer without hesitation
and set out toward Overlook, a journey of roughly two ten-days. In
Overlook our heroes are offered a job to head to the Monastery of the
Sundered Chain, a Dwarven monastery high in the mountains, their job is
three-fold, warn the dwarves of the Orcs on the warpath, command them to
seal their underground tunnels, and request any reinforcement that the
monastery might be able to offer the besieged fortress of Brodins Watch,
our heroes setout on their first job since Brindol. What Awaits You: Epic Encounters : Face Goblins, Orcs, Undead, Githyanki, Dragons and much much more, in an unforgiving world that demands bravery. Rich Storytelling :

About Your Dungeon Master Greetings, adventurers! I’m a 32-year-old Dane with a deep love of fantasy, inspired by Tolkien and the world of Critical Role .
My DM style is rooted in dynamic storytelling, grounded world-building,
taking influence from Matt Colville, and I love making epic moments
that players will remember for years. I prioritise player enjoyment, the
“rule of cool,” and creative problem-solving. I put great effort
into making a world that feels real for my players, and making the
experience feel like friends sitting around the dining room table
playing at home, with plenty of room for casual silliness and a focus on
the serious story elements, many of my players have gone on to form
real life friendships outside of the game as well, and with groups still
running with the same players after 6 years, I think this attests to
the quality of my games. I pride myself on my easy-going attitude
and consistency. I have run many paid groups over the past half-decade
and have had great success introducing completely new players to the
game and hobby. I would love to welcome anyone new to my table. How I Run the Game Tools & Immersion : Professional maps, custom handouts, in-world calendar, thematic music, and a visually engaging Roll20 setup. Combat & Pacing :
Fast and strategic combat that keeps everyone engaged, alongside
character-driven roleplay moments, I employ various API’s and macros to
enhance the Roll20 experience. Player Feedback :
I encourage open communication between sessions to ensure everyone’s
having fun and that the game evolves to meet player interests. The Players We’re Looking For We
value group chemistry and are seeking players who enjoy teamwork,
respect the narrative, and love to share the spotlight. A short
interview process helps us ensure that you’re a great fit for our group. Inclusivity : A welcoming, safe, and fun environment for all, everyone is welcome at my table. Commitment : Reliable attendance and active engagement. Character Collaboration : Bring a character that adds to the story and fits well with the party.
