Hi all, I'm steve! Recently started DMing a Homebrewed 5e Campaign using the Dark Sun setting for inspiration. And I'm looking for back ups as some of the players have indicated they my not be able to commit to the full campaign. The campaign is being run on Roll20 for maps, Discord for Voice Chat and dndbeyond (with beyond20 plugin) for character sheets and dice rolls. There is no set day. but it is being run on either mondays, tuesdays, thursdays or friday afternoons (sometimes evenings) whenever possible as often as we can, dates decided upon in a facebook group set up for the campaign. We currently have 6 players, but one or more may leave the campaign after a few sessions. The players have only just completed session 0 + 1 and are currently level 2. I am allowing Feats, Multiclassing and everything from all officially released wizards of the coast DnD5e material What is Dark Sun? Athas is a desert plane, commonly known as “Silt”. Athas is a devastated world, the result of magic run amok. Most of Athas is an empty desert, interrupted by a handful of corrupt city states controlled by power-mad sorcerer-kings and their spell-wielding lackeys. The brutal climate and the oppressive rule of the sorcerer-kings have created a corrupt, bloodthirsty, and desperate culture that leaves little room for chivalric virtues. Arcane magic is strictly prohibited and controlled. Slavery is commonplace, and death permeates the culture. One hope slaves have for freedom is through gladiatorial conquest, these duels provide entertainment for the elite, and releases for the slave, through winning freedom, or the freedom in death. Athas has no deities and no formal religions other than the cults created by the sorcerer-kings. The world of Athas is completely cut off from the rest of the DnD multiverse, in fact only vary few high level wizards and scholars are even aware of the multiverse concept. And none in living memory have ever gone to another realm of existence. Even the Shadow-fell and Feywild are nothing but myths and legends in this world.
