Across the world, whispers of ancient powers rise from crowded cities to forgotten ruins. A trail of secrets winds across continents, drawing you into a mystery where every clue reveals greater dangers. What begins as investigation will become a journey into the heart of darkness itself. Where the fate of more than just your lives hang in the balance.

This is a campaign set in 1925, where players answer the call of their good friend Jackson Elias, a true crime writer who specializes in uncovering cults. This globetrotting campaign starts in New York and is set to go all over the world (In game, exclusively).

For generations, the deadly mist known only as "The Veil" swallowed the lowlands, forcing civilization to retreat to scattered mountain peaks. Isolated from eachother, dwindling, and afraid. But now, the fog is finally receding. At last, the first brave souls are descending to reclaim, or rediscover, what was once lost.

Ancient ruins, forgotten artifacts, and untamed wildernesses are emerging from the shroud after thousands of years. Strange creatures stir. Old magic breathes again. 

The world is waking up. Will you answer the call?

Game

You are part of an adventurers guild based in Highgrasp, one of the isolated mountaintop cities. What will your party do this time? Pick a quest from the quest board? Go through the veil to fill out the map? Go for treasure to increase the wealth of the guild? You write the story! 

This game is part of a sandbox- or hop-on-hop-off style campaign, a sandbox game where every session is stand-alone, but continues with the progress of the sessions before, while creating the world during play. You don't have to have played before, and you can always join any time you like. Be a part of history!

System

This game will be in the Dungeon World system (Unlimited edition). A system similar to Dungeons & Dragons, but with rules based on epic narration, so it's more focused on action and a cool story! Easy to play for everyone, beginners or experienced players alike. No need to have any experience!

Character creation is a quick process which we will do as a group at the start of the game (but you can bring your own character if you have one)

Closed campaign for call of Cthulhu, session 26, Intrested in joining or do you have quesions?

Tonight we are going to play DISCWORLD RPG

You are all (male or disguised female) wizards at unseen university. The yearly round of allocating budgets has just started. But this time the Patrician is not sure of the worth of the university to the city of Ankh-Morpork. He wants to cut expenditures. *)

You must show him that your chair is indispensable.

No need to learn the rules. That will only interfere with the fun of playing this RPG.

But you do have to come up with a character:

• What is your name and race? (e.g. dwarf, human, troll, orang-outang, Nac-mac-feegle.)
• What is your background? (e.g. ‘too weak to work on the farmland, therefore sent to the big city to learn a trade that doesn’t require muscles’)
• What are 4 of your good and bad traits? (e.g. ‘can outstare a cat from 500 yards’, ‘can’t count up to 4’)
• What Wizard’s department at unseen university are you connected with? (e.g. the chair of ‘explainable mysteries’)
• What three spells did you actually learned by heart? (e.g. the spell of ‘returning foam to stale beer and other funny pub games’)
   
  P.s. You might die in this adventure. But rest assured: DEATH will show you how to get to the afterlife. No need to become a poltergeist.

*) Times are tough: inflation because printing money costs more than the value of the actual coins, the cost of tax collecting is ever increasing, hanging is sooo expensive nowadays, etc.

Acquisitions Incorperated

Acquisitions Incorporated is the multiplanar leader in licensed adventuring, heroic outsourcing, and high-risk/high-reward contract resolution.

Whether it's:

• Slaying a troll that's ruining the village aesthetic
• Recovering misplaced magical artifacts (don't ask)
• Negotiating with ancient evil (terms & conditions apply)

…we’ve got a team for that!

And we are looking for adventurers for a new Franchise out of Longsaddle.

Are you an ambitious group of would-be heroes?
Ready to trade fame for bureaucracy?
Want to make actual gold doing what you're already doing for free?

Joining the campaign

This is a hop-on hop-off campaign consisting of smaller stories. Everytime we play it can be a different party as you are an employee of a franchise of Acq Inc. It's on a first come, first serve basis. Therefore I cannot promise anyone a seat on the table.

Any information about the campaign so far can be found via https://acqinc.burnacid.com

You don't have to read all the session notes, but it would be usefull to read the details about the current franchise state. Please see the links on the home page reguarding "The Franchise"

Type of story

This is D&D mixed with the roll play of running a business in a cheesy way. You need to uphold the brands reputation, report to management for errors and get reviewed on a regular basis. Your backstory would benifit for a reason for joining Acq Inc.

Rules for making your character

• All official content is allowed
• I prefer D&D 5e 2014 rules. But 2024 rules are allowed for character creation if you inform me about that
• No Unearth Arcana
• For ability score use Standard Array, Point Buy OR my own customized relaxed Point Buy Calculator (https://burnacid.github.io/D-DStatsCalculator/)
• For HP use average
• If you are joining the campaign for the first time, you are considered to be an intern for be business. Please make your character 1 level below advertised. (can't go below level 1)
