‘The Herald is coming. Fear the night.’ 

Discover a living D&D 5E world of intrigue, deceit and accursed undeath. This Prologue introduces your character to the Red Isles, and the vampiric apocalypse ravaging it. As the Worldwound above begins to drain the world of all light, trapping those that succumb to it's influence in accursed stone. 

As part of this event you will receive your Hunter's Journal - allowing you to track experience, upgrade your equipment and level up across sessions. 

Playing this Prologue is required before joining any other Aeturnum games. 

Aeturnum II is an original D&D5E dark fantasy campaign. As a Hunter of the Wayfarer’s guild, you will be tasked with uniting the scattered remnants of the Isles - forging fragile alliances and confronting the curseblood plague that threatens to consume you from the inside.

    Genuinely didn't know what to expect from this event other than a night of dressing up as a vampire and drinking cocktails... But it was so much better than that! The community that The Arcanist's Tavern has built are so kind and accepting welcoming my craziness without a second thought. I'm usually terrified to dance, but the dance teachers were supportive and made all those worries go away - I even went back to dance another time! But one of the major highlights for me was the social deduction game we played. I was expecting we'd get in to groups and do some werewolf or coup or those types of board games about spotting people lying etc. but no, this was a full immersive experience. The organisers crafted a brilliant story and kept everyone's attention throughout. They told us there was a murder of an ancient vampire and even got 6 random people there to role play and act as one of the 6 suspects. Everyone else had to go around questioning them and trying to piece together the story with little dribbles of clues that the organisers left us. I was able to pretend I was a vampire detective and when the suspect was revealed and voted out I felt so validated for putting all the clues together. Genuinely how I want to spend every Halloween or spooky Holiday from now on!
