Whispers of the Dead God

Launch Page for new campaign created mostly on ChatGPT.

To understand this campaign better, one has to understand the history from before the time of the Gods - it's Proto-History if you will. You will also need to understand more about Durmstang and his Cabal of the Unseen Hand .

The Master Plan: Tearing the Weave

Durnstang’s master plan revolves around destabilizing the Weave by attacking it from multiple fronts. Each member of the Cabal has a critical role, contributing to the unraveling in different ways:

• Maltherion disrupts the balance between life and undeath, creating rifts in the natural cycle.
• Kyros “The Shadowed Fang” (Living, Drow): leads the *Web of Knives*, a mercenary company and assassins’ guild to weaken the structures that bind the Weave and start wars.
• The Viridescent One unleashes natural plagues and corruption, targeting regions tied to nature and life.
• Ivelka recruits mortal armies to cause widespread death and destruction, breaking the societal pillars that uphold the natural order.
• Orralax searches for primordial artifacts, which, once activated, will open cracks in the Weave.
• Sarkathus expands demonic influence on the material plane, further weakening the barriers between planes.

As these forces act in concert, Durnstang quietly manipulates the unfolding chaos, ensuring the Weave becomes unstable enough that he can perform a final ritual to sever the link between life and death, freeing souls from the gods' control. If successful, this will not only break the cycle of reincarnation but also dissolve the barriers between planes, bringing the universe one step closer to Oblivion.

Each member of the Cabal believes they are working towards their own goals—immortality, dominance, control, revenge—but in truth, they are pawns in Durnstang’s greater plan to destroy the Weave and the natural cycle of existence.
