The Flooded Barrows of Han'Mei

A Dungeons & Dragons 5e game In the world of Aspiritus
| Looking for Players
The party awakens in a dimly lit room smelling of mildew and ash to a lone dwarf in dusty chainmail tending their wounds. They learn that a freak storm on the surface decimated the town above and that they were accidentally placed among the bodies sent down to be hastily cremated. Instead the dwarf before them figured they were still alive and tended to them until the barrow started flooding and communication was lost with the surface. Rescue is unlikely for a long time, and supplies are low-- the party must escape from the barrows by scavenging for food and water while dealing with whatever enemies that may be found lurking in the dark.

Supporting Cast
  • Sir Mortimer Grimbeard
    A quiet old dwarf with a graying red beard, dusty laminar armor, and a metalic pendant in the shape of an open gauntlet. He is one of the few clergy stationed in this site that is still alive, as far as he knows, but nevertheless nonchalantly attends his duties. He is the one who discovered the party members amongst the bodies of the dead, and is nursing them to health in spite of his own injuries and lack of supplies.
