The Game of Elf and Flame

A Weekly D&D 5E Campaign at Big Ugly Brewery

The city of Syngorn teeters on the edge of chaos.
The Ember Lexicon, a mercenary order clad in crimson, marches beneath the banner of High Councilman Thailen Morr’ae. Their mission: to claim the Feygrove, a living stretch of feywild magic, and “return it” to the elves of Syngorn.

But whispers of devils in shadowed alleys, secrets buried in the Feygrove, and a power struggle on the High Council suggest something far darker. Who pulls the strings? What blight, or blessing, lurks in the Feygrove’s heart?

The answers will be written in blood, flame, and fate.

Can you help discover the truth… before it’s too late?
Welcome to The Game of Elf and Flame.

This high fantasy weekly campaign is set in Critical Role’s world of Exandria (on an alternate timeline) a few years before the events of Campaign 3. Digital and physical battle maps, custom monsters, homebrew, voice acting, humor, and immersive storytelling are just a click away!

A Critical Role fan from the early days of the live stream, he is heavily influenced by Matt Mercer’s GM style and works to create a cooperative storytelling experience focusing on all the players at the table.
