Wizard War
Drakarion Starbane arrives from beyond the stars, drawn by the power to create a plane and bind it. He marks four individuals across the world and compels them to converge on the ruins of Starfall village. There, they are given the tools to build a kingdom and tasked with recruiting — or defeating — seventeen other champions, each attuned to a relic of power. The end state is a unified or fractured world shaped by the choices the party makes about who to trust, who to destroy, and what kind of power they want.
A kingdom-building campaign in which four heroes are marked by the cosmic entity Drakarion Starbane as his champions. From the ruins of a burned farming village, they build the kingdom of Drakarnia, navigate a web of seventeen champion NPCs each holding a relic of power, and fight to consolidate the region before larger forces — the Gallund River Empire, the Hesh gods, and a growing undead power — consume everything.
