Fogbound

Welcome, adventurers, to the world of Fogbound. This campaign is set in The Plane of Creation, a large expanse containing a multitude of villages, cities and ruins. However, those are not your main focus (though you may explore them at will) for the plane is beset on all sides by great walls of Fog that stretch into the sky far beyond the limits of human sight. Historically they have been regarded as barrier of sorts - something put in place by the Painter, the mysterious creator of the world, and which should not be tampered with. This stigma has however faded over time and so, two years ago, an Adventurer's Guild was formed with the purpose of mapping out The Fogbound Lands, the strange world which lies beyond the walls. Creation itself is divided into three continents. One is the Eastern Landmass, which is mainly comprised of pine forests and grasslands. It contains many highly populated villages. The gigantic Western Landmass is made up mostly of a single swampland, hostile and uninhabitable. However, in its northernmost reaches, a plains leads to a mountainous, arctic region. While not nonexistent, civilisation is very sparse, existing only in the plains area and its peninsulas. Finally, the ocean dividing the two landmasses contains many small islands. Aside from few port-towns which act as stop-overs for ships, the Tempyre Isles remain almost completely unexplored due to the dangerous nature of the jungle that covers them. They are rumoured to hold the ruins of an ancient, long-dead civilisation that holds many secrets. The five of you will begin your adventure having just signed up as members of the Fogbound Exploration Guild. Bear this in mind when creating your characters and give them a reason to be curious about the secrets the Fog holds.
