Introduction
I began working on this hybrid campaign over 3 years ago, and since then, it has grown beyond what it was originally. Initially based on Tolkien's Middle-Earth, the playable races were initially restricted to those associated with the trilogy, but this has since grown to include those associated with Greyhawk, including Dragonborne and Tiefling; for some species, your origin will be unconventional and provided to you. Note: In my homestyle world, not all areas are free from discrimination.
Once upon a time, only the basic races were present in Greyhawk; now there are more. See p. 17 of the Greyhawk Campaign Guide for information on the races present in Greyhawk (2024 edition). For those wishing to delve into past versions of the setting, it can be viewed here. This document dates back to 1983 (42 years ago). There have been a lot of changes since then.

About the Campaign
The campaign is a brief railroad that leads to a sandbox-based campaign. In the game, there is an initial storyline that leads to Voldrun in the Principality of Ulek, but from there, players could go in any direction. All of you will need to decide together what is best.
In my campaign, you will need to determine friend from foe and act accordingly. I tend to ignore CR and will not “balance” the game for the sake of any player; the world is what it is, and can be dangerous in some areas. As not all battles are winnable, characters should be smart enough to run away at times.
Gameplay will involve delving into dungeons, chasing or being chased, doing investigations as well as dealing with magic items now and then. Connected by a storyline, combat and ongoing roleplay will be involved; danger could be lurking just around the corner. “It's a dangerous business going out your door. You step onto the road, and if you don't keep your feet, there's no knowing where you might be swept off to.” Though not always free from danger, in Voldrun, things will start off rather peacefully.
Festival at Voldrun
Each year, thousands travel to Voldrun to celebrate the Festival of the Red Dragon, commemorating those who defeated the beast that once terrorized the town. The event is held during Brewfest and features strong ale, great food, and lively carnival games. This year marks the 25th anniversary — and with record attendance expected, it promises to be a celebration to remember.

Gameplay Overview
Tentatively, each session is 3-4 hours from 9am to 12pm / 1pm PST each Wednesday. If someone is late, I will only wait 10 minutes before starting gameplay. Try not to be late. Note that a session will be cancelled if I can't make it, or if more than half the players will be absent as indicated on Discord. Gameplay will be sandbox-based and start in Greyhawk.
Besides using Google Meet each game session, we will be making use of D&D Beyond, Beyond20 and Foundry VTT. Note that you will need to finalize your character prior to the start of session 3.
