Idle Champions of the Forgotten Realms News

Everything has come to this moment.
You must defeat Vecna, no matter the cost.

The finale of the Vecna: Eve of Ruin campaign is here!

Our Champions face their most monumental task yet: to defeat Emperor Vecna and save the multiverse. Descend into Vecna's Grasp, 'unmake' Vecna's un-realities, and defeat Emperor Vecna once and for all, no matter the cost.

Part 10 is the finale of the Vecna: Eve of Ruin campaign. You will need to have completed the previous two Vecna: Eve of Ruin adventures, The War of Pandesmos and The Ruinous Citadel, in order to access the final campaign adventures.

Curious, affable, and morbid, the drow heretic K'thriss Drow'b seeks the insane god-truth behind the veil of reality. As the "C" Team's hoardsperson, he keeps an eye out for occult relics that could aid him in his unearthly quest.

K'thriss Drow'b has been updated to modernize his design and provide more opportunities to synergize with other Champions from Acq Inc, The "C" Team, and the Wafflecrew.

For all the details on this Champion Update for K'thriss, read on!

[p] Celebrations are underway to commemorate the founding of the Free City of Waterdeep. Founders' Day attracts huge crowds to the Field of Triumph, where audiences watch illusory shows about Waterdeep's history and martial exhibitions by notable Champions and the renown city guard. Festivities have also brought an ancient power from Avernus, first layer of the Nine Hells. A fallen angel has arrived to collect souls for the Blood War...
[/p][h2]Featured Champions[/h2][h3]Tess[/h3][p]Tess grew up in a small village where she wreaked havoc as an amateur thief (she stole to see if she could, not because she wanted to keep the items - mostly), before her parents sent her to be trained by an aging halfling rogue named Mel. Under Mel’s mentorship, Tess became a professional infiltrator, using her skills for good. Now she’s formed her own adventuring party and is actively molding them into the heroes she knows they can be.

Tess grew up in a small village where she wreaked havoc as an amateur thief (she stole to see if she could, not because she wanted to keep the items - mostly), before her parents sent her to be trained by an aging halfling rogue named Mel. Under Mel’s mentorship, Tess became a professional infiltrator, using her skills for good. Now she’s formed her own adventuring party and is actively molding them into the heroes she knows they can be.

Tess is a Support Champion who leads by example, buffing the damage of all Champions behind her. This expert in traps has a plan for everything, increasing your formation's damage if she is given companions with a diverse set of roles. Tess can always be found with the Fallbacks' Otyugh companion Uggie nearby.
