Hey playgrounders, Im about to homebrew my first campaign ever, and I was hoping for some suggestions/help.
Basis: Five person party, all players are dragonborn. In order to compensate for the different party roles, I'm changing the stats around for the dragonborn, depending on their color. For instance, the gold (remembering that metallic dragons are the good ones) has a +2 to int and wis instead of str and cha, in order to support the controller role better. Skills will also be changed, e.g. the gold will get +2 to arcana and history, instead of intimidate. Their breath will correspond to their color, brass will breathe fire, copper will breath acid/poison etc.
Story: The Return of Arkhosia. In effect, the five dragonborn are the children of the five leaders of the metallic clans (gold, brass, silver, copper, the other one i forgot). When their parents are killed by Tiamat, Bahamut appears to them in their dreams to order them to rebuild Arkhosia and to eventually kill Tiamat.
Leveling: The only problem with leveling 1-30 is it takes so long! I was thinking that they will play levels 1-5, 11-16, 21-24, and 28-30, and eventually killing tiamat. This way they get the feel of the epic campaign without the epic grind.
I think thats it. Help please!
Sorry about the wall of text, i couldnt find the spoiler button :smalleek:
