Wilderlands

I’m running a weekly online D&D B/X game focused on hexcrawling and dungeon delving in the Wilderlands of High Fantasy Barbarian Altanis—a hostile land filled with ancient riches and antediluvian evils.

We are using Discord for chat and voice, Owlbear Rodeo for mapping, and Google Slides for character sheets. You can find all other campaign resources, active characters, and session reports below.

See here if you’d like to join us. We welcome players of all skill.
