Eldridth
Wane Penthday of Formlum 1289 DE
An evil plot is unfolding on the continent of Aygess, and the ball is already rolling. This idyllic part of the world of Eldridith had been in relative peace for about a century with only local internal squabbles, with few clashes between kingdoms and nations.
Aygess is lush with a variety of life, and many different races and creatures inhabit the lands. Humans, long the holders of both power and poverty and once the primary race had to learn to share the title of most prevalent race, when the Dwarves were chased from there deep tunnels and under mountain empires by a ferocious new type of beast the found deep within the planet, Reavers.
The world on large is very much unaware of the coming danger, From the Goliath clans or the a Harengon farmer to the communal Gnomes or highest nobles, everyone is going about their lives. It is The Gods with vested interests in Eldridith that are beginning to move their pawns into place. The handful of Elven tribes left have found omens of a great darkness rising, and have sent some chosen to follow the sign.
The ancient and dark history of the world is coming to bear, will this peaceful society has what it needs to prevent its fall into chaos and evil? The only hope the world has is the actions of individuals, and it’s fate for good or bad will be determined by the choices made in Campaign.
This campaign is built on an open world concept, a multitude of events are taking place, where every choice has the potential to impact how events unfold, and gives you the opportunity to not only shape your own destiny but that of the world itself. There are a vast number of established NPC’s populating this vast world, as well as organizations, Factions and cults. The window is open for almost any kind of adventure your heart desires.
The Playable races in this campaign are; Dwarf, Elf, Gnome, Goliath, Half-Elf, Halfling, Harengon, Human and Satyr. Some minor modifications to the subspecies have been made. Other choices like Dragonborn, warforged Tieflings and half Orcs, maybe done but will require coordination with the DM, as there are some story based limitations.
You can choose as a Artificer, Barbarian, Bard, Cleric, Druid, Fighter, Paladin, Ranger, Rogue, Sorcerer, Warlock, Wizard or Monk for your Characters Class. Define your background, and role play your character into the world. Your character and it background will be woven into the story to create its own story as well. Remember that we are beginning at level 1, so you will not have an extensively heroic background. Think more along the lines of events that define a personalitly you wish to roleplay. You can use Atlas of Aygess to learn a bit more about world, though keep in mind that any lore you are creating for the world may need minor editing to fit into what is needed for the world, but the farther you get from The Queendom of Thena, the more freedom you are going to have, though be sure and have a reason why your traveling south from the Northern Frozen Wastes, called the Stonal Region.
This campaign will be open to newbies to experienced players, and is hoping to have 4-6 players. We hope to begin in March. Exact schedules will be based upon the availability of the party, but the goal would be twice a month, or at least once a month. All will take place online, the methods of which are yet to be fully determined.

Primary Sections of the World Handbook
Player Options
This section will go over choosing your Race, Class, background, Equipment and Spells. This helps build your character. Much of it may seem like quiet allot, but remember since we are starting at level 1, you will slowly gain all the abilities and spells described, though learning a bit about how your option will progress as the game goes on.
World Atlas
The Atlas has maps of each of the regions, as well as a summary of the geography and politics. This is a great reference when you are making your background.
Understanding the Rules
The Rules, and explanations of how the game of D&D is played. This is a great reference for new players, though will also explain the variant rules, and house rules that will apply to this session, though that will be gone over in Session 0, our first session.
World Encyclopedia
General knowledge about the World, organized into several different sections. Use this to dig deeper into established public lore. Keep in mind that just because something is not listed there doesn't mean it is not in the world, as it is a continuous work in progress, and also sometimes omitted because it is not common knowledge.
"Coming Soon" Pages
There are several pages listed as coming soon in the encyclopedia. This is mostly because the content needs to be indexed, or there is to little information discovered by the active party.
Session 0
We will have a Session Zero to finalize our characters, and provide an opportunity for everyone to get to know each other.
Game Style
There is an evil plot to bring chaos to Eldridth, and it is only a matter of time before this plan is completed. As things stand, the world will surely fall into chaos. The players decisions, successes, and failures can and likely will redefine how things turn will turn out.
Quests
There will be a multitude of quests and different methods and choices to play. Allot of events are occurring right now, though you characters will not really be aware of those events, and so much of the current events in the world are not available to be viewed.
The World Guide
This includes an introduction that helps explain a bit more about the world, a Rule book that helps go over how the game is played. This also has an Encyclopedia including all the information that is available at this time, more will be revealed as it is discovered or added. It also has a Atlas which goes over the geography and Political situations around the world, though currently it is focused on Aygess, the primary continent.
Accounts
You may find that some pages will require an account and subscription, this is because it is referencing specific information that comes from the Players Handbook. Once you have your Free Account set up with World Anvil, and accept the subscriber invite, you can toggle access to each page.
