Yeah well, you know, nobody wants to save the world ... that's just something that happens to you. First you just want to get some loot and then unexpected stuff happens and at one point you just try to get home and more unexpected stuff happens, and tada, you have saved the world ... and hopefully got a lot of loot on the way there 😁

My OC is from Eberron but I've never played a session set in it😅. My low level campaign is set on the Radiant Citadel which is floating through the Ethereal Plane; it's meant to act as a hub for Multiversal travel, allowing lore friendly access to other adventure modules😄

TheBard

Thank you very much 😊Yeah, the avatar of Lolth was not very pleased, that we sabotaged her efforts to unite a bunch a demon lords. 😅

Ooooooh nice one TheBard😉👌. You went with an evil avatar face off too?! Mine was the Lord of Blades corrupted by Hadar.

You make saving the world sound like you accidentally stepped on your next-door neighbour's petunias when you're out walking your dog🤣

Ah, a scene ib the Underdark, your Drows facing an Avatar! Yes, this is a great scene - memorable! Good one, my friend!

TheBard

Also sounds cool ... I think I have not yet played a campaign in Eberon ... I'm more a Faerun guy 😅
