Campaign Details
The Shattered Crown
Objectives
- Retrieve the three shattered pieces of the Crown of Azure Skies
- Stop the dark sorcerer Gorthok from claiming its power
- Save the imprisoned princess of the Silver Kingdom
Setting
The campaign begins in the bustling city of Varenfall, the largest and most prosperous city in the Silver Kingdom. The Silver Kingdom is a peaceful and wealthy land, known for its skilled artisans and powerful mages. However, a dark shadow has fallen over the kingdom with the rise of Gorthok, a powerful dark sorcerer who seeks to claim the Crown of Azure Skies for his own nefarious purposes.
The Crown of Azure Skies is a powerful artifact that was shattered into three pieces by the ancient mages of the Silver Kingdom. It is said that when the crown is whole, it grants the wearer the power to control the very skies themselves. Gorthok has already claimed one piece of the crown and has imprisoned the princess of the Silver Kingdom in his fortress. It is up to the adventurers to retrieve the remaining two pieces of the crown and stop Gorthok before it's too late.
The adventurers will travel through the picturesque Silverwood Forest, the treacherous Frostbite Mountains, and the mysterious Ruins of the Ancients. Along the way, they will encounter various creatures, from friendly and helpful to hostile and dangerous.
Challenges and Encounters
- Gorthok's minions, such as dark elves, orcs, and undead creatures
- A band of brigands who have taken over a fortress in the Frostbite Mountains
- A group of druids who are trying to protect the Silverwood Forest from loggers
- A pack of worgs that have taken over the Ruins of the Ancients

Rewards and Consequences
If the adventurers succeed in stopping Gorthok and retrieving the Crown of Azure Skies, they will be hailed as heroes and rewarded with gold, magical items, and land. They will have saved the Silver Kingdom from certain doom and will have prevented the dark sorcerer from becoming too powerful.
