Dark omens stir in the city of Varros. Whispers of strange occurrences, eerie lights in the sky, and the disappearance of once-reliable seers have begun to spread through the streets. Beneath the grand spires and bustling markets, an ancient force stirs—Calolurchh, The Unquenchable. If the signs are true, it seeks entry into the world, and its coming would mean ruin.
A desperate man named Hans claims to have seen the warnings and begs for aid. Whether by fate, duty, or simple misfortune, you have been drawn into a struggle far greater than you could have imagined. Within the walls of Varros and the lands that surround it, you will face deadly foes, uncover long-buried secrets, and make choices that will determine the fate of all who call this place home.
This campaign will take characters from levels 1 through 10! It blends heroic fantasy with creeping cosmic dread, challenging you with a mix of thrilling combat, immersive roleplay, and light dungeon-crawling exploration. All players—new and experienced—are welcome, and no prior knowledge of Shadow of the Weird Wizard is required. As the last light fades, will you stand against the darkness, or be consumed by it?
