During my previous D&D campaign I posted a summary of each session on to the Order of the Stick Forums. It was a great writing exercise and a very useful tool for referring back to events from previous sessions.

The log details the third campaign set in Cimmeria. The campaign was split into two halves, Alliance and Rebellion. Alliance followed the adventures of high-level members of the Second Alliance, fighting against the evil Xorian Empire. Rebellion followed the escapades of a group of low-level adventurers pressed into helping the Rebels fight the Xorian Empire by collecting pieces of an ancient prophecy.

The campaign log on the forums had a decent following. I think at the end I had about 500 people reading each of the updates, but almost zero audience interaction. I was always a little disappointed that I got people reading about the campaign, but not a lot of people talking about it.

While writing the campaign log I put links to the blog here when relevant. One of my eventual plans was also to duplicate the campaign log on to gocorral.com as well. For one, this would place the log in multiple places for preservation reasons. Secondly, the log was never proofread and it shows.

So coming soon, I will be posting the Xorian Wars: Alliance and Rebellion campaign log to gocorral.com. With each of the entries I’ll also be trying to post more Characters of Cimmeria and Locations of Cimmeria as we come upon things that are featured within a specific session.

Welcome to the GoCorral website! I’m Isaac Shaker and this is a place for me to write about D&D and occasionally other topics. I host a podcast called Setting the Stage that interviews different DMs about their campaigns. I’m currently focused on completing the Cimmeria campaign setting and turning it into a book.

89 – Bunnies vs. the Borg D&D (Avery and Traumwald) Setting the Stage, Campaigns for D&D and Other RPGs

Avery presents her world of Traumwald which means Dream Forest. Traumwald was a peaceful, magical world inhabited by anthropomorphic animals of all kinds. Their peace was shattered by the attack of the Ichal, a biomechanical hive mind species similar to the Borg. The Ichal are led by the dark god Ulvakros who seeks to absorb all life into himself. The Ichal have spread across different dimensions and now they have come to Traumwald as the next stop on their mission of multiversal conquest.Traumwald has a D&D 5.0e supplement that Avery made. It's a setting and a campaign in one book. Species generation rules allow you to create any sort of animal species for your PC. There are lots of new subclasses to play and a new base class, the Ascetic. The campaign is adaptable with a dynamic faction system for tracking the events as they unfold at your table. Each campaign run in Traumwald is guaranteed to be different as the factions fluctuate and change to player actions. You can lift the faction system for your personal campaign as well!You can find Traumwald on Avery's itch.io page.Check out the Setting the Stage website!Want to be on the show?
