The abyss pushes the barrier between the realms of Endora. The undead rise from their cold graves. Will you save them or build a guild worthy of remembrance? Or will mortal pawns and their feelings not interest you at all? The choice is yours. Hook: Well adventurer, I've been told you have been looking for mercenary work. The life you are about to embrace is hardly a noble one and it's definitely not easy, but it can be rewarding in its own way. You are a hired blade, not some wandering hero on some righteous quest. The enemies you encounter don't believe in playing nice and neither should you. Just remember you're paid to get results. And results are what these folk need.

I was privileged to run a D&D 5e game to level 20 with a completion to the main campaign storyline. I have half a decade of experience with running table top rooms at large conventions. I have run multiple groups at one time with perfect attendance for more than half a year. I’m experienced with D&D 3.5, Xcral, Pathfinder, Dresden Files RPG, and D&D 5e. World history: I have been working on this homebrew adventure and homebrew world setting for over 3 years and now that it's done I’m very excited to share it. This world setting was created by me by hand with many different resources. The Pantheon used is the same used in Critical Roll with 8 other homebrew gods and deities. Many gods use dreams to respond to players. You will find them in large supply when playing a holy character or when you have a patreon. Some historical events like the calamity you will find in this game as well. There are also historical events from a plethora of different resources. If you wish to know more about the history of the world I would suggest rolling in-game or asking me during character creation.
