[QUOTE="dreaded_beast, post: 1772624, member: 11185"] I may just be in one of my moods, but I have the itching to bring destruction and chaos to the campaign I am running. The campaign doesn't seem to have any direction and the PCs seem to be just going with the flow. In addition, this campaign is one I actually took over. I really didn't set any ground rules, so the campaign is not really being run the way I want. The players already made some assumptions on how things work, etc. I want a chance for a fresh start, but don't want to just up and tell the players we are playing a new campaign. I figure doing some Realms Shattering Events for a few sessions (probably a good couple of months in real time) and shaking up the campaign world would be a good way to make FR my own as well as leading to a fun and enjoyable end to a campaign. Then I can go back to scratch and start of the type of FR campaign I really wanted instead of picking up where someone left off. Here is what I just came up with: One of the PCs has received a religious artifact, a red strand of hair that comes from the godess Sune. The religious artifact was gifted to the PC by a merchant group known as the Iron Throne. After some research, the PC discovered that the strand must be brought to the temple of Sune, within Daerlun, the city of Sembia to fully activate it's powers. However, the Iron Throne is actually a secret evil organization fronting as a merchant group. When the PCs arrive at the temple with the so called religious artifact, all hell should break lose. Question is, what kind of chaos and discord could ensue? I'm looking to change the face of FR, such as Cormyr being overrun by demons, Shadowdale being destroyed by a rain of colorless fire, Waterdeep being ripped from the land and turned into a flying fortress, the Great Glacier melting forming another sea, etc. I want the players to feel like the world is in Chaos, and that danger lurks everywhere. Let me know who you think the main bad guys should be, how to get the ball rolling etc. I was thinking the Slaad, demons, devils, The Dragon Cult, Zhentarim, etc. Ideas welcomed! [/QUOTE]
