The first Savage Tide has already touched the mortal world, yet none who live today recall this time or red ruin. Unleashed from the cruel heart of a fall seed known as a shadow pearl, this savage tide swept over an ancient city perched atop the crown of a remote island. The tide transformed beggar and noble, merchant and thief, resident and visitor into feral, ravenous fiends. The fruits if centuries of labour came crumbling down in a matter of days, and when the survivors tried to stem the tide by destroying the pearl, the resulting blast of power sunk their city into a boiling lake of death. Through it all, the Abyssal architect of the savage tide watched, taking pride in the ruin. When the tide's final ripples had faded, what was left became known as the Isle of Dread.
Now, after a thousand years, the true masters of the Isle of Dread look upon new targets, new cities beyond the horizon, compelled by the hatred will of their demonic lord Demogorgon to prepare for the coming glory. This time, the doom will not be limited to one hapless city. This time, all of civilisation waits unknowing on the shore, blissfully ignorant of what the incoming tide brings in.
This is the tale of 5 ordinary humanoids upon the world of Faerun, and their adventures for the bustle of the Chult Peninsula port capital of Tashluta to the depths of the Abyssal layer of Gaping Maw, home to the Demon Prince. During this time, they encounter pirates, dinosaurs and deformations created by the Savage Tide. Throughout all this, they will make a name for themselves as adventurers of history - For good, or for ill...
This is their story.

The Second Party: I will make a campaign thread for you all once you reach a further point in the adventure.
