In the increasingly sandy reaches between Old Town and the Badlands, the crumbling remains of a dozen lost empires dot the land. One such ruin is known to be the lair of the gorgon Dreadhorn, a minor villain of little influence in the region. Intelligence intercepted by agents of the Senate of Old Town indicate a phalanx of hobgoblins assemble near the World's Scar to set out on an urgent mission to the lair of Dreadhorn. The Senate will know the reason why before committing its hoplites to forcing the monsters back into the scorched wastes of the Badlands. The long picked-over heap of an abandoned city, once the jewel of a mighty orcish empire crumbles in an emerald valley. Every protagonist from Lionguard worth mentioning has delved this corrupt place before and it is said that little, if any, glory or gold remains. So why are the Sultans of Rajashi sending a phalanx of hobgoblin sellswords here to this distant and forlorn ruin? What possible business could they have with the gorgon - a minor villain with few long-reaching schemes and even less influence - who lairs somewhere in the depths? Sign-up below for a D&D 5e one-shot taking place on Wednesday, Jan. 31, at 7 pm Eastern . The game will end around 11 pm. We currently have 3 players and can take up to 2 more, plus a couple alternates in case anyone has to drop. Characters are 3rd level and can reach 4th level during the session if you really get after it. Character creation details are in the campaign forum. Preference is given to players with both D&D 5e and Roll20 experience, so please tell us if you have this when you express interest in your post in addition to telling us a little about yourself. This is also a Mature 18+ game; the content is appropriate for standard D&D, but I expect adult language and off-color jokes to be the norm. If you have any questions, ask away. I look forward to meeting you and playing some D&D together this week!
