The Wall
Magic has faded into the tales of legend, and an unusually long winter has rumors of the return of beasts from the frozen north on the tongues of men. The ancient wall that tales say held the beasts at bay in centuries past has fallen into ruin, manned by thieves and vagabonds as punishment. Will spring return?
- Campaign Setting: Will be loosely set in the world of George RR Martin's Song of Fire and Ice book series.
- Alternate Rules: Spellcasters will be *rare* and inherently distrusted by the general populace.
The Hawk and Shield
The Coryani empire is fracturing under a touched Emperor and the never-seen Sorcerer-King of Ymandragore has started to feverishly hunt and capture more of the gifted arcane casters from his island prison. The Sanctorum of the Arcane fights back, but struggles internally between two major factions—the Hawk, a group that seeks to confront the Sorceror King directly; and the Shield, a group that seeks to hide the gifted and starve out the Sorceror King.
- Campaign Setting: Arcanis
- Alternate Rules: Per the setting.
The Return of Quetzalcoatl
High priests to the nearly forgotten feathered serpent god stand on top of the cliff, where giant faces have been carved out of the rock to stare eastward. The carvings, as well as the faithful, away the day that their god will return to them.
Meanwhile across the sea, Cordell and his Golden Legion have convinced the merchants of Amn that there is another world full of riches across the sea to the west. Soon the ships will be loaded, the crews finalized, and sails will be set.
- Campaign Setting: Forgotten Realms, with (almost) no relationship to the Lone Rock City mythos.
- The party could either be the invaders or the natives.
Lone Rock City: Undoing of the Rings
Valiant and not-so valiant heroes have put an end to BLANK's BLANK. Now that BLANK is finished, it is decided by BLANK that the best way to end the threat of BLANK is to begin the process of undoing the creation of the Rings of Power.
- Campaign Setting: In the current campaign, continuing the story arc.
- New PCs can be created or old ones may continue to be used.
