Estel Harda Wiki

Estel Harda is the name of our Dungeons and Dragons 5th Edition campaign. It takes place on the world of Turinasta, an inverted earth that has a sun in its centre. Within Turinasta, the campaign takes place on the continent of Gyfanh, believed to be the only inhabitable continent remaining on the planet.

The elves of ancient history created magical wonders and bio-automata to serve them as warriors, labourers and companions. However, their greatest creation rose up against them after only a few hundred years of servitude. This creation was Humankind. After 50 years of war and a crushing victory where the Grand Marshall Olym Gratus thrust his sword into the heart of the elven leader, the humans called in a new era where they would prosper and never be slaves again.

This era was named after the promise of the Gratus Reign (GR), and the era before it declared as the Darkness Era (DE). The elves they could find on the surface were enslaved, while the dwarves and gnomes who had hidden in their forts were merely tolerated. Orcs that were left were used as mind-controlled labour. Tieflings were killed as soon as they are born, and those who weren't kept as novelties for the rich and their horns ground for medicine.

It is now the year 3854 GR. Most history has been lost and the hubris of the humans has led to Turinasta dying. They have exhausted the power of Sol and it can no longer sustain life. Gyfanh is splitting open to reveal the technology between the Earth and the Gratus Confederacy is the only government left. The orcs have revealed themselves from their hiding places in the southern regions of Iavrenem, and they are poised to be the biggest threat that the humans have faced yet.

The Gratus Confederacy, however, have a plan to escape their dying home, and they are hoping that Retrieval Squad 4820 will be able to get the artifacts they need to do it after 4,819 other squads have failed. Their journey began with that suicide mission.
