The Evils of Illmire campaign prepper-D&D Campaign Assistant

Example

Integrating a player's backstory with a local NPC, like connecting a player's lost family member to a cult's recent kidnappings.

Scenario

A player creates a character with a backstory involving a missing sibling. The Campaign Prepper suggests that this sibling was last seen near Illmire and may have fallen victim to or been brainwashed by the Nightmare Cult, creating a personal quest that ties into the main storyline.

Example

Designing an encounter where players must negotiate with a group of corrupted town guards without blowing their cover, leading to potential alliances or new enemies.

Scenario

Players are investigating the cult's influence in Illmire and stumble upon a group of town guards who are secretly cult sympathizers. The Campaign Prepper provides a detailed setup for a tense negotiation, where players must choose their words carefully to avoid combat, potentially gaining valuable information or even an inside ally.

Example

Creating a magical item that can reveal hidden cult symbols, offering both a tool for investigation and a means to engage with the world's deeper lore.

Scenario

As a reward for helping a local hermit, players receive a 'Lens of Truth' that reveals hidden symbols and messages left by the cult. This item not only aids their investigation but also uncovers secret paths or messages in dungeons, adding layers of discovery and intrigue.
