Beneath a crimson sun lie wastelands of majestic desolation and cities of cruel splendor, where sandal clad heroes battle ancient sorcery and terrible monsters. This is Athas, the world of the DARK SUN campaign setting, a dying planet of savagery and desolation. Life hangs by a thread in this barren land. It is unforgiving to the weak, and now it is up to you to write your own story in blood and glory. One ticket secures your spot at the table for all four sessions of the campaign.
This adventure contains mature themes and is intended for adults (18+).
Event Dates: 8/4, 8/11, 8/18 & 8/25
Event Time: 6:00PM - 9:00PM
Plot Summary: Enter the ancient and corrupt city of Tyr, whose tyrannical Sorcerer-King has ruled for a millennium. As you wander the city, from the wreck of the elven warrens to the supreme splendor of the arena, you realize that the citizens of Tyr thirst less for water than they do for freedom.
Now, after a century of slave labor, Sorcerer King Kalak's great ziggurat nears completion. He has promised the city a grand celebration when the monument is done, complete with the most brutal arena match in Tyr's long history. Rumors abound as to the nature of the spectacle. Some believe it will bring with it the longed-for manumission of countless slaves. Others fear the annihilation of Tyr and her people as a sacrifice to Kalak's hunger for power. Only a secret few believe it will be a day of revolution - a day for freedom!
Please be advised that while not the focus, this fantasy campaign includes themes of environmental collapse, slavery, racism, and torture.
About the Dungeon Master: Your professor is Andrew Smith. Not only is he a skilled game master, he's a former educator, a computer programmer, and a father. He's a friend of the Academy, and we know he will be your friend as well.
What to Bring: No need to create a character beforehand, but come ready with a few character concepts appropriate to the harsh world of Athas. At the start of our first adventure, we’ll create a party of third level characters together using a combination of the Player’s Handbook, Xanathar’s Guide to Everything, and the unofficial 5e Dark Sun Campaign Guide. Bring dice, paper, and a pencil. If you have a miniature to represent your character that would be great! Have a question? Please find your DM on the Adventurers' Academy Discord as rew #4943 or e-mail him at andrew@lordsofhack.com and he'll be in touch. As the campaign develops, please find hype and updates at this website.
