The Shadowfell - Gloomwrought & Beyond


So, my current campaign is taking place in the previously released game supplement:  The Shadowfell - Gloomwrought and Beyond.

This campaign follows the Deva-Vampire, Camulus (played by Scott) and the Werewolf-Troll, Xanthus (played by Manny) who have both ended up in Gloomwrought unintentionally.

Xanthas, a former tribal Cleric to his clan in the Mortal World (Superna) ended up in the Shadowfell after fighting against a pack of werewolves and falling to a black ravine that transported him into the Shadowfell.  The werewolves were his tribe's enemy and after his fight with them, he was infected with the lycanthrope disease. Having essentially been turned into one his former tribe's enemy, he took the events that lead him to the Shadowfell as a sign that the Raven Queen desired a new path for him.  He ended up in Gloomwrought after being sold as a gladiatorial slave and released after winning the combat he was forced in to.

Camulus is unsure how he ended up in Gloomwrought, nor how exactly he became a vampire. Much of his past is shrouded from him.  It is obvious that something dark and treacherous has occurred in his past and he is on the brink of turning into a foul creature, known as a Rakshasa. His current mission is to find the person who turned him into a vampire and to try to leave the god he previously worshiped, to gain new support from the Raven Queen.

The two were joined together when an unknown noble in Gloomwrought hired them to procure a magical artifact for him, in exchange for his protection and alliance in the City of Midnight.
