Chronicles of Runeheim
I'm opening a new campaign on my homebrew world inspired by Gilenor (rs3)!
Summary
For over a millennia, the Empire of Runeheim has enjoyed a fragile peace under the World Council. The Great God Wars are a distant memory, the gods themselves have been sealed away by the Edict of Guthix, and magic is now into the very skin of mortals through runic tattoos.
But the silence of the gods is being broken. On the prehistoric island of Anachronia, archaeologists have unearthed inscriptions of "Ancient Gods" that predate creation itself. What will happen to the world in case all those inscriptions are really true?
The Game: This is a long-term, high-fantasy campaign set in Runeheim, a homebrew world inspired by the lore and atmosphere of RuneScape (RS3/OSRS). You don't need to have played the games to be part of this campaign (and I honestly kinda prefer you didn't play, since there's a lot of changes xD)
We will begin at Level 1 in the humble town of Catherby, eventually scaling to Level 20 as you navigate the main areas of the world in search of hidden artifacts alongside the archeologists.
System: D&D 5e (2014 Rules with some 2024 additions)
Time: Wednesdays at 7:00 PM EST
Platform: Foundry + Discord
Tone: The setting is very political, so it's serious but with room for humor. Think 70% Roleplay / 15% Exploration / 15% Combat.
Pacing: Slow-burn. Your choices will matter later on the campaign, and background is necessary since it'll be implemented on the story.
Who I am looking for:
The Storytellers: Players who love to rp, develop their character’s goals, fears, and relationships.
The Lore-Hounds: You don't need to know RuneScape lore (this is a homebrew spin), but you should enjoy uncovering world history and political secrets.
Consistency: Since this is a long-term epic, I am looking for players who can commit to a weekly schedule.
World Features:
Runic Magic: A unique take on spellcasting where magic is tied to runic tattoos and "Pure Essence".
Deep Factions: From the White Knights of Falador to the mysterious Prophets of Zaros.
Meaningful Choices: No true scripted paths. Will you uphold the Empire’s order, or side with the chaos of the seas?
Send me a DM if you want to take part of this story!
