Our Valelands Campaign Nentir Vale Map
"An entire century has passed since the great human Empire of Nerath fell, leaving the Nentir Vale a desolate borderland region populated by "points of light"—isolated towns and villages surrounded by a monster infested wilderness. The mighty empires of the dragonborn and tieflings that existed long before Nerath also lie in ruins, their legacies lost beneath the untamed land.

The roads are dangerous, overgrown, and plagued by marauding bandits, evil humanoids, foul beasts and much worse. Traveling between civilized areas like the trading town of Fallcrest and the dwarven citadel of Hammerfast is a peril-filled journey in itself.

Ruined keeps and abandoned manors, remnants of a forgotten age, litter the countryside, ripe for adventurers to explore and claim as their own. This land does not have a powerful kingdom to enforce its laws or fend off the growing evils.

It needs heroes who are brave enough to venture into the darkness and face the lurking monsters and evil cults that await them."

« Old-School Essentials »

Old-School Essentials is a tabletop role-playing game that builds upon the core rules of the B/X Essentials, B/X and BECMI game systems.

It incorporates elements and options from Advanced Dungeons & Dragons "1st Edition", such as additional classes, races, spells, and monsters, while maintaining the simpler, more streamlined rules of Basic/Expert "B/X" D&D.

Key features:
Old-School Essentials is a retroclone, meaning it's designed to emulate the feel and mechanics of older versions of Dungeons & Dragons.

• B/X Foundation: It retains the core mechanics and feel of the original B/X D&D, which was popular in the 1980s and is still widely played to this day.
• AD&D Integration: It includes optional rules, classes, races, and spells from AD&D 1st Edition, allowing players to experience a wider range of character options and game elements.
• Character Variety: Players can choose from a broader array of character classes and races, including options like drow, duergar, gnome, and half-elf, among many others.
• Expanded Content: It includes additional magical items, spells, and monsters, adding more depth and complexity to the game.
• Flexible Gameplay: The game offers optional rules for character creation, combat, and spell acquisition, allowing for a more tailored experience.
• Modern Layout: Necrotic Gnome uses a modern layout and clear presentation, making it very easy to learn and even reference during play.
• House Ruling: With it being completely compatible with systems like AD&D 1st edition, BECMI, BX and "to an extent" AD&D 2nd edition it is easy to include house rules, mechanics and outside rules from these systems.

« About Our Adventures »

All of our campaigns will consist of adventures loosely tied together to create our long lasting campaigns. These adventures will work together to create "our own" Valelands campaign setting set within the world of Nerath.

We are always looking for more people that would like to join us that will be "dedicated" players & DMs.

We are very rusty to online play and have been away from the game for a long time so, if you can tolerate some mistakes being made while we learn then please give us a shout out.

If you would like to join us in our adventures, you can leave us a comment in our comment section located here.
