Summary
It should be noted that the participants in this campaign were teenagers.
This campaign followed the human monk named "Bard" and his companions through many adventures. His companions included a human romantic interest, an elven wizard named "Teppan", a half-elf named "Shilari" (daughter of Umbrus), and elven wizard named "Drax", a priest of Ptah, and several others.
Early achievements included becoming a party of undead adventurers. Bard was a vampire, his romantic interest was a ghost, and Teppan was a lich. Later achievements included finding the Spelljammer, and gaining control of it, with the help of Shilari and the priest of Ptah. Shilari was slain by a servant of the a succubus "Darkrora", named "Cresthaven Ralhain". Bard went on to use the Spelljammer to defeat the Dark Empire, whose emperor was his own father, possessed by a demon known both as "The Child" and "Demogorgon". The Spelljammer was lost in the final battle, but the priest of Ptah secured the smalljammer that would become the next Spelljammer.
Bard was a recurring character, appearing in multiple campaigns.
There was a side quest centered around a human wizard named "The Wanderer". This character was the father of Shilari, and his adventurers often involved an artifact called the Realmblade, that he would have to defend, recover, or use to travel the realms.
