The Journey So Far...

Embark on an epic journey with “Malt and Magic,” a Dungeons & Dragons campaign set in the mystical world of Ardahlia. This saga unfolds in the wake of a momentous event—the miraculous return of the Kingdom of Nialin. Lost to the annals of history, its reappearance unleashed a surge of magical energy across the land, reshaping Ardahlia’s destiny. Ancient ley lines buckled under the strain, opening rifts to other planes and inviting both wondrous and malevolent beings into our realm. As natural and supernatural forces collided, the once-dominant voice of the divine dwindled, leaving only their chosen few to bear their whispers.

In the midst of this new era, our tale follows a diverse group of adventurers, each drawn into the unfolding drama by fate, curiosity, or the search for personal redemption. From the enigmatic streets of Thaelyssa to the vast, uncharted territories of Enoeth, they journey together, bound by a shared destiny and a common cause.

Among them is Jewel, whose agility and keen sense of survival have steered the group through many perils, and Kavan, a Wild Magic Barbarian whose untamed power is matched only by his unwavering loyalty. Together with Lex, whose past intertwines mysteriously with the mechanical realm of Mechanus, and Edgious, a bard marked by transformation and seeking vengeance, they form an unlikely fellowship.

The campaign has seen them confront challenges that test the very fabric of their being. They’ve battled ancient spirits seeking to corrupt the essence of nature, discovered forgotten magics, and faced down personal demons—both literal and metaphorical. Each victory and loss has been a step towards understanding the delicate balance between chaos and order, magic and mundanity.

“Malt and Magic” is not just a campaign but a celebration of storytelling, where each twist of fate is guided by the roll of the dice. It’s a tale of how ordinary individuals, when thrown into extraordinary circumstances, can emerge as heroes. It’s a narrative shaped as much by the camaraderie around the table as by the adventures within the game.

Join us in this grand tale for a glimpse into a world reborn through magic, a testament to the enduring spirit of adventure, and the unbreakable bonds forged along the way. Here, in Ardahlia, every hero has a story, and every story matters.

Meet The Heroes

Jewel of Shadows

Tabaxi Phantom Rogue (she/her)
Portrayed by Dave Ricks

An enigmatic rogue with a once-fiery distrust of magic, Jewel's journey has taken her to the precipice of death and back. Graced with newfound powers from the Astral Plane, her brush with the afterlife has transformed her, softening her scepticism towards magic, thanks to her continued exposure to Lex's sorcery. A Phantom Rogue reborn, Jewel navigates the world with a unique blend of stealth, skill, and spectral abilities, ever on the quest for truth and vindication.

Lex Ordo

Yuan-Ti Pureblood Clockwork Soul Sorcerer (he/him)
Portrayed by Danny Hodge

Raised in the meticulous Plane of Mechanus, Lex is a fusion of emotion and cold logic, tempered by daily meditation. Dressed distinctively with cues from both worlds and always accompanied by his Monodrone, Cog, he seeks to unravel Ardahlia's planar mysteries while clearing his name from a wrongful accusation. With a protective streak towards Jewel and a methodical approach to conflicts, Lex is a force of reason and precision in a chaotic world.
