EPIC League - The next chapter within the Shattered Storm



If you have frequented EPIC or enquired about Dungeons and Dragons, you’ve likely heard of EPIC League and if you haven’t then be informed on what you’re missing out on!

 

What is EPIC League?

EPIC League (EL) is a yet another form of organised play for Dungeons & Dragons… with a twist: Each table is a different town and adventuring party in the same world! This means actions and choices you make affect other tables around you!

The story and adventures take place in the Demi Plane of Thoroz – outside the Forgotten Realms, Eberron, Tal’Dorei or any other established D&D universe, though adventurers may originate from any of these universes.

Adventurers and other brave souls are dragged through the veil by some unknown power and now must struggle to survive the harsh unforgiving landscape that is Thoroz. The world is inspired by prehistoric Australia, dark fantasy, and the Dread Domains of Dungeons and Dragons (featured in ‘Curse of Strahd’ and ‘Van Richten’s Guide to Ravenloft’). One of the main storytelling elements employed in this season of EPIC League is the mystery of the unknown, so it would be a major spoiler to reveal any more details here

What has happened in the campaign so far?

That’s a lot to cover, each table is a different town and the towns so far have been focusing on rebuilding after each one was obliterated by a dragon attack. The towns have spent the last couple of months rebuilding society and thwarting different dragon-worshipping cults.

There are also seemingly paranormal shades, ghost-like entities that naturally inhabit the plane and observe the goings-on. Shades have been discovered to be able to pose as normal humanoids and have been known to attack individuals and copy their abilities.

The last but pivotal point that has been central to the story so far, is the Everstorm. An ever-present storm that encompasses the entire world and reacts violently to goings-on in the world.

When is EPIC League?

EPIC League takes place EVERY Wednesday night with games starting at 6. I can promise as a Dungeon Master (DM) that runs a table, the DMs put so much time and effort into establishing world lore and interacting with each other’s tables behind the scenes to give the most enjoyable experience to all of the Leagues players. 


Your Friend and Ally,

Lachy

Fblthp has a new hospitality job?

  The Lost Adventures of Fblthp - entry 3 See previous entry here Fblthp has a new hospitality job? Lisa Cooke had finished her training and rushed off to her work at the local Hotel, she had only arrived when she went to grab her ID from her bag when she found a stowaway in her bag! Fblthp was busted, here is a photo Lisa sent me to report the out-of-control plushie. Now remember, I had thought Fblthp dead after I last saw him being carried away by a pelican, so to say I was surprised that he had gotten so incredibly lost and moreover harassing EPIC Ipswich's patrons, I did the only thing I could think. Like any homunculus who found himself without a job and indebted to someone or something (looking at you Azorious Senate), he was put to work. It began menial, helped Lisa and her lovely boss set up, placing cutlery and decorating tables. The menial task ran dry as both individuals realised a homunculus probably couldn't carry trays or walk around the floor when it was busy.  ...

Phyrexia All Will Be One - A summary of Mechanics and Archetypes

  Once again I find myself in the position of watching everyone else have fun at Prerelease for the new set and this time I cannot put into words how disappointed I am to be unable to partake. Everyone who plays against me in MTG jokes that I'm "a Phyrexian Simp". To help you wrap your head around it and help with deck building for prerelease I have compiled the Mechanics and Archetypes into a single blog post you may scroll through to help. Mechanics Toxic Toxic is the new infect- applying Poison counters to an opponent when a creature with Toxic deals combat damage. The damage applied to an opponent’s life total is reduced with the combat damage and the number of Poison counters applied is determined by the number next to Toxic in that creature’s text box. Corrupted Corrupted is a new MTG mechanic in Phyrexia All Will Be One that adds value to Poison counters. Upon an opponent having 10 Poison counters, the game is ended. The Corrupted mechanic allows permanents to have...
