Update: We are a fun loving group of 5 regulars enjoying THOAV now 8 sessions in and looking for one more player. looking for one more player to join the crew. The Halls of Arden Vul is huge !
Looking to assemble a group of committed, old school style, players who are keen to take on an Arden Vul campaign in 2025. We will give it a long term run in this fantastic setting using Old School Essentials and with a few home brew rules. Starting this January 2025 in approx 2-3 weeks
Who hasn't heard of the Halls of Arden Vul? A once-grand city perched high atop a cliff face, laid to waste and abandoned during a civil war that broke an Empire's back; now home to untold riches, ancient power long buried and challenging mysteries.
The Halls of Arden Vul is a setting for a **megadungeon.** It's a place to explore, full of ancient mysteries to uncover, lost treasures to retrieve, and whole societies of intelligent monsters to bargain with - or scheme against. The main theme of the campaign is discovery: if you don't like exploring forgotten places and dungeons, recovering ancient lore, and figuring out mysteries, this is not the campaign for you.
The campaign we will play does have a great long term story too as some characters manage to survive through brutal old school play to uncover plots, history points, old secrets, unlock new items and power and a few big dark mysteries of the entire Arden Vul story.
**Weekly, or sometimes Fortnightly,Campaign Sessions and some in between Play By Post via discord:**
This campaign will be voice only **8PM to 11PM GMT+10 (3 -3.5 hour sessions)(AEST)** with a Discord server & for (Voice) either on Friday/Sat or Sunday depending on player availability.
We will be playing with the Old School Essentials rules including Advanced rules, carcass crawler rules and other house rules from their official content.
In between campaign sessions some relaxed PBP on discord play including admin, travel between locales , story, party development and maybe some play as the campaign progresses.
**About me:** I am a long time DM, over 20 years from Basic onwards and also DM a 5E group also. I enjoy running games for players that enjoy having fun through role playing.
**Looking for: 4-5 dedicated old school players** who want to form a longer term group and like role play of their characters. This setting is actually very deep. Where you also may (will likely) lose a few characters along the way but one will get through to true greatness (hopefully).
Those who are interested should **express interest below with a brief intro to their interest / experience with old school campaigning** or DM me with any questions re applying to join.
As above we will be starting later in January 2025.
