Summary

It should be noted that the participants in this campaign were teenagers.

This campaign followed the human, Isaac, and his allies in several adventures. Isaac's class was a home-grown creation called an "avatar". This was an abusively over-powered class that represented mortal souls sponsored by a powerful outer-planar species. These mortals grew more powerful until eventually they ascended to the ranks of the plane that sponsored them. Isaac was specifically an avatar of the angelic Aasimar.

Throughout the campaign, Isaac fought against a demon avatar named "Ortus". The achievements of Isaac include uniting the tribes and city-states of Acrolon into a single Empire, becoming its first Emperor. He also defeated of Ortus' repeated attempts to corrupt, infiltrate, and destroy the new Empire of Acrolon. Eventually Isaac ascended to join the ranks of the Solari.

Canon

Isaac is canonized as the first emperor of the Empire of Acrolon, which was a unification of realms in the wake of The Realm War. His ascension is canonized as becoming the Exarch of Eir, the Shard God of Day. After The First Godswar, he would become the new Primarch of Day in Acrolon, known as Lucidus.
