The Mist has taken its toll on the civilizations that dot Than'dyr's countryside. Vast, unyielding, mysterious; words used to deify a collective mass of waste and destruction, leaving behind a perpetually perplexing scene of ancient debris in its tireless wake. One day bustles a kingdom, hoping to stand against time itself in defiance to its very clockwork face. The next, ruins no more discernible from another mountain of crumbled stone and abandoned king-castles.
Were it not enough to worry the lawman's discerning future, so should the plethora of varying issues that plague any land of Eida. Rumors of necromancers taking an unholy inhabitance within local caverns. Great beasts roaming the trade routes, hunting the least defended caravans for unnatural feasts. Brigands and banditry that grows in alarming power of the tenuous nobles' lands. A dragon cult that wields the power of the unrivaled tempest. Discreet families within the capital city, Markand, that partake in every manner of unscrupulous activity known to sapience and waging their own secret war.

The Age of Heroes is Nigh.
Time and again have we all read the stories of the legends of yore. Wizened spellcasters who could part the skies, frenzied berserkers whose righteous rage will see every mean to an end, even the skulking assassin that can end a war with a single precise strike. They do not exist. At least, not yet. With the eventual rise of every hero comes an equal rival, dragging them down into the void of distant memory. Hope is drowning, and even the most valiant organizations of good are only faint embers in the cold of oppressive darkness.
Become the light, or the mirror that reflects it. Aspiring adventurers. Humble heroes. The people need you. Your beginning might have been mild, it may have been treacherous. Perhaps you seek glory, fame, or fortune. However you heed the call, beware the coming days. Creatures of indeterminate might, prophesied events of the cults, dirty rotten scoundrels will reveal themselves by way of fear, awe, unmatched emotion, and underhanded tactics. Take up arms, heroes. Do what you can to bring determination back to the people. Bring hope to the down-trodden. Bring a golden era of heroes to...

... The Eiden Lands
Hello, and welcome to my written homebrew campaign of The Eiden Lands! If you're familiar with those particular words in D&D context, then you'd have a right feeling! I am currently running this campaign for my group of friends, and I'm in the process of revamping the whole world, storyline, and everything. Literally, every detail is to be expanded, adjusted, or changed altogether. What I'm looking for here is something similar, and it will have inspiration from other sources of RP and media to make this as smooth as I can run it.
For now, this is an Interest Check. I do have world details that I will absolutely love to explain, as typing it all out will be rather tedious for me to write and perhaps not-so enthusiastic. Here are a few things I'd like to cover OOC, should you want to express your interest. Excuse the coming wall of "rules."
And finally
Some quick details about The Eiden Lands.I'm excited to see if this sparks any interest! If it does gain any traction, I'll start up a discord along with working on an OOC.
For the time being, all are welcome to join my campaign for purposes of using all available official content. ddb.ac/campaigns/join/30965392249821039
