Blightfall
Overview
Blightfall
A Courtly 5e Campaign of Autumn, Intrigue, and Fading Magic
Autumn has come to Shadowmarch.
The leaves burn gold. The courts gather in splendour. The Skyborne Citadels drift above the forest like watchful stars. And at the heart of it all, the Twilight Bloom begins to rot.
A Campaign of Beauty and Decay
Blightfall is a three-act D&D 5e campaign of political tension, fae diplomacy, and slow-burn catastrophe.
This is not a story of armies marching. It is a story of alliances fracturing.
The Seelie Court insists the Bloom can be restored. The Unseelie whisper that something deeper has broken. The Skyborne speak of stewardship. Somewhere beneath the Autumn Crown, the truth waits.
