The Broken Kingdom

update: Tuesday 5pm (EST) we have 2 out of 5, but only 1 more needed to start up!

Campaign summary: The people of Assara do not have much information about their past, all they know is that over a thousand years ago the people lived in a near paradise. They had power, tech, and knowledge beyond modern comprehension. They built the roads still used today, their weaponry seems to last eternally and is highly valued.

Somewhere in the south a dark power has raised an army, now more than ever the nations of Assara must come together to defeat this threat, but most choose to remain ignorant to the truth of it all.

Play as a forlorn adventurer that will be thrust into the worst of it all, but be tasked with the quest to bring everyone together while helping defend against this growing evil.

Character creation: Characters will be built at level 1. Starting abilities are pulled from this custom array

18-16-14-13-11-10. No flying races, no variant human or custom lineage but everyone will be starting with a feat at level 1. No artificer or any gun wielding subclasses. There are two new forms of human races to pick from in the species homebrew section in my beyond account.

The Nordic people: In addition to some skills and other proficiencies you start with a Mastiff pet that scales with you.

The Northman people: In addition to some skills and other proficiencies you gain Advantage on Initiative.

Both get the standard 2/ 1 ability mods.

Platforms: Discord for communications, beyond to build characters and Foundry as our VTT.

Combat will be tactical and difficult, as you will be level 1, and game will end a bit after level 5.

Additionally we will be using advanced rest mechanics where a short rest is 8 hours in a day, and long rest is 7 consecutive days of rest.
