Twilight Dawn


PBeM DM: JP Hazelhoff (Mumadar Ibn Huzal)

DM's Email address: jphazelhoff@yahoo.com (replace ~ with @)

Twilight Dawn is currently on hold


Yahoo groups distribution (http://games.groups.yahoo.com/group/TwilightDawn/)

PBeM Overview:
A Forgotten Realms Campaign, which started in and around Berdusk, but has since moved South to Eshpurta in Amn.

Berdusk, Eleint 1372, an average late summer in the Sword Coast.

Or is it...?

Some of the merchants have seen disruptions in trade; a few caravans have not made it across from Amn. One of the daughters of the First Folk was attacked by undead not far from the city and within the city walls, a brutal murder and kidnapping of they body took place. Right under the noses of the Harpers and the city guards.

Not such an average late summer after all...

A mismatched group of people drawn into the turmoil by chance has been asked to covertly investigate the recent events. After uncovering a secret Cult of the Dragon hide-out in Berdusk, the group was relieved of its mission by the local authorities...

After a dangerous journey south across the Greenfields they found themselves in the Snakewood. After being visited by a senior Harper, the group split; one part returning to Berdusk with the Harper and the others continuing their journey south - now on a mission to harass the Cult of the Dragon...

After arriving in Eshpurta, Amn, the group crystallizes around the Rashemi witch and becomes 'The Company of the Wolf'.

Expected Duration:
Unknown - started in 2001. Currently on hold

Character Positions Available:
Currently none, openings will be announced on Candlekeep
(though submitting a good character concept is a way to convince the DM an opening should be created)


Lurkers:

The Night Below Redux


PBeM DM: Gary Dallison (Dazzlerdal)
DM's Email Address: Dazzlerdal_googlemail.com (replace _ with @)

PBeM Overview:
A complete rewrite of the classic super adventure The Night Below.
Characters are currently level 3, rules are loosely based on pathfinder but heavily customised.
Set in the Savage Frontier.
Rumours of a gold rush caused treasure seekers to flock to the county of Haranshire.
The town of Freidburg's population doubled in a month. Then the orcs attacked, all river traffic in and out of the county was raided.
The people were trapped, waiting for the orcs to close in around them.
Then came 4 heroes, they bravely searched for allies in the land and when the orcs finally arrived the town was ready.
Wave upon wave of orcs, maybe a thousand or more crashed against the walled town.
Finally at the end the enemy generals Scar and Ranchefus appeared with a wyvern to break down the gates.
The heroes blocked their way and with bravery and fortitude the day was won.

Now the heroes and their new found friends are sent to investigate who orchestrated the rumours, the orcs, and why.

Their investigations lead them to the orc's home, a cavern complex in the spine of the world mountains.

At the bottom the heroes find a door that leads into the underdark and the lost dwarven city of Underholme.

Now the party are trapped and lost in the vastness of the Underdark in an abandoned, ancient dwarven city filled with monsters.

Expected Duration:
From 2009 until I die or the internet ceases to exist or I can find no one else to play. Once The Night Below is finished I intend to open the realms as a sandbox for the players to roam.

Character Positions:
At the moment we have 7 players and one former player turned lurker. I reckon I could fit one more player at the maximum and any character role is allowed. If you are interested then email me. First come first serve.

Current Party
Chadwick: Paladin and bastard son of the count of Haranshire.
Crag: Outcast barbarian of the blue bear tribe, infected werebear, talks to a voice in his head called brain.
Tallyn: Conjuror of Silverymoon that mysteriously appeared in Haranshire the day the heroes arrived. Travels with his unicorn familiar.
Eriel: Druid of the north, travels with his animal companion and wolf brother (by adoption) called Wolfie
Amber: Ranger, was in a magical accident as a child and outcast by the people of Haranshire.
Aytros Hawkwind: Semi retired (through injury) member of the cormyrian military. Now contracted as an errand runner by Silverymoon sent to investigate the troubles in Haranshire.

Former Members
Wystan Frauka: Cleric of Helm, now the acting high abbot of the mountain monastery of Haranshire
Kaern: Fighter. Former heir to the Axebiter clan of orcs. Now ruler of the Axebiter and Bloodskull clans of orcs.

Lurkers: Lurkers welcome, if you contact me I can add you to the journal and log on google drive and the emails.

The War on Dragonkind

http://rpol.net/game.cgi?gi=64281&date=1442441046

PBeM Overview:
A Forgotten Realms Campaign, starting in Furthinghome, North of Yuirwood. Other locations which will be possible visited:

The players awaken on a dock with no memory of how they arrived there. There is forest to their back, and a lake in front of them. It is evening; the sun is setting turning the sky various shades of purple, red and orange. Further above, it goes from dark blue to black. No stars are visible, making it difficult to judge where they are.

In the middle of the lake on a small tree-covered island they see red and blue light emanating from the trees.
What they do from there, is entirely up to them.


Expected Duration:
5-6 months


Character Positions Available:
Currently none, openings will be announced on Candlekeep
(though submitting a good character concept is a way to convince the DM an opening should be created)
