The Fey portal is cold stone. The vibrant songs of the Elves have been choked out by the rhythmic, grinding march of the dead. Following the catastrophic "Shattering of the Green," a power vacuum was left in the wake of the Fey’s retreat—a void that Lord Vexius and his undead legions were all too eager to fill.
Douxel Vale has been forcibly reshaped into a suffocating, evergreen tomb. A living ceiling of magically woven branches—thick as a fortress wall—now strangles the sky, plunging the forest into a perpetual, bone-chilling twilight. In this new era, life is no longer a right; it is a trespass.
Vexius’s fury is currently fixed on a singular target. For the crime of defying his rule, a large bounty has been placed on Welldone and his companions. There will be no negotiations. There will be no ransoms. There is only the hunt.
The Shadow’s Mandate
- The Choking Gloom: The very atmosphere resists the light. Torches flicker like dying embers and magical glows fail to pierce the mist. All light sources and Darkvision ranges are reduced by 50%. Only those with Devil’s Sight or similar otherworldly senses can see clearly through the gloom.
- The Veiled Warrens: From the root-choked surface to the jagged, subterranean depths, the Vale is a labyrinth of rot. Roving bands of undead—cold, calculating, and tireless—scour every shadow for the heat of a pulse.
- No Quarter Given: This is a war of attrition. The undead do not take prisoners. If a warrior falls to 0 HP, the shadows close in immediately to finish the job, dragging the fallen into the dark to be raised as fresh recruits for Vexius’s undying legion.
A Call to the Grave
- Survival is the Only Victory: Resources are non-existent, and the environment itself is a predator. Every step through the moss-covered rot of the Warrens is a gamble against a foe that never sleeps.
- The Traitor’s Path (PVP): Vexius values efficiency above all. Players wishing to play Undead characters must be cleared by the DM. Be warned: your objective may be to hunt, harrying your former allies from the darkness.
The hunt is up, the bounty is set, and the shadows are hungry.
