Knights of the Daystorm - custom 5-dungeon campaign

Posted March 25th, 2010 at 04:17 PM by Velenne

________________________________________________
INTRODUCTION

Welcome! This is the final, completed version of the Knights of the Daystorm campaign. This campaign includes:

5 complete scenarios
15 new Treasure Glyphs
4 new Ancient Artifact cards
Player's Campaign Status Tracker
Rules for both the DM and player(s).

In “Knights of the Daystorm”, one side plays the role of the Knights of the Daystorm, a group of heroes who begin on Earth but eventually hail from various worlds. The other side will play the role of the Dungeon Master, and it’s your job to stop the Knights using the plethora of creatures, traps, and puzzles at your disposal.

There are four element-themed dungeons and one final dungeon called “Sanctuary”. The Knights choose the order in which to complete the elemental dungeons, striving to acquire the Elemental Artifact Key protected by each dungeon’s final Guardian. If the Knights do so, they travel to Icaria for the final dungeon and final victory: the very source of the wellsprings!

Make sure you understand the drafting rules for the Knights, take a look over the scenarios (taking care not to read Runa’s Riddles!) and determine which dungeon the Knights delve into first.
