Setting: Standard Points of Light D&D setting.
Plot:
The plot draws heavily on old and obscure D&D mythos as well as new. And will focus upon on the attempts of an old Devil referred to as the Veil of the Eternal, that was betrayed by Asmodeus after the failed rebellion against He Who Was and this Devil's attempts to free himself from the Abyss where he is trapped and the various factions directly and indirectly involved. Heroic tier will be mostly run in the Shadowfell. Though might not start there depending on party make-up.
Characters:
Must be Free on Mondays and Thursdays. Monday will be date for the main game, Thursday will be a backup date if a Monday cannot be made. Eastern Time, evening, between 5 and 8 PM start time.
Level 2, please discuss with the other players before making your character to work on your character creations. I am very skilled at strategy and tactics so it would be a good idea to get synergy between the characters. When you are done, type in your character sheets into the built in character sheet interface on Roll20.
No character changes will be allowed after the second session.
Tying your character's background to the story will make things easier but is not a requirement. To help with that I will list the following factions your character could be tied to.
The Ashen Covenant.
Same as from the Dragon Magazines. They are one of Asmodeus's strongest cults and as such are leading Asmodeuss' mortal efforts against the return of the Veil. Other then that they normally have the goal of creating powerful undead, and trying to subvert the Raven Queen so as to have Asmodeus replace her. And character that follows the Raven Queen or a deity with a strong stance against undead could use them as a tie in point.
They Who Were
This is an Astral Faction, made of of angels who used to follow He Who Was, Devas, other old astral beings, a very few number of lesser devils and a small number of recent mortal recruits who have formed a small cult around them. They are the strongest force trying to Free the Veil, believing he will replace He Who Was.
The Unveiled
This is less a faction and more a broad category of various creatures and beings who have come under the sway of the veil. An extremely large number of demons and other creatures of the chaos realm make up this faction as well as smaller numbers of mortals either mercenary types and thieves guilds hired directly or promised various things by the veil such as wealth, love, power, ect.
The Nine Hells
Due to the nature of this Plot, most of the devils in the nine hells have taken an interest in what is happening for their own various agendas. Spies from them are very common.
The Gods
The Gods for the most part want nothing to do with this situation and will actively try to steer their followers away. Although a few of the elder Gods might have directed some of their followers to keep tabs on the situation, but for the most part anything other then the status quo worries the Gods.
Themes are recommended.
