The campaign of The Rot  You survive a nautiloid crash. You wash ashore in Seabrooke – a coastal village literally sinking into the sea. Homes half-submerged, docks rotting, people disappearing. The poor are being “relocated” by Lord Darius Therin for “their own safety.” They aren’t. Something called the Rot is spreading. No one agrees if it’s plague, curse, or something far older. It’s changing people. And Lord Therin knows more than he’s saying. This is a story-driven eldritch horror campaign set in the Forgotten Realms. Heavy on creeping dread, cosmic mystery, political tension, and moral grey areas. No obvious heroes. No simple answers. What You Can Expect Deep narrative focus and meaningful character choices Roleplay-heavy sessions with real consequences Slow-building cosmic horror and unsettling mystery Moral complexity – no black-and-white “good guys” Milestone leveling (no XP grind) Rule of Cool is welcome – if it’s dramatic and fits, we’ll make it work I prioritize immersion and momentum. I’m far more interested in telling a compelling story together than pausing for edge-case rules debates.
