Sands of Fate
The Desert Realm of Damaz is a vast ocean of desert sands, encircled by imposing mountain valleys. Once touched by the immense power of the Lost Gods, its ancient temples stand abandoned - charred and forgotten by time. Relentless sandstorms scour the region, uncovering only fragments of a mysterious past buried beneath the shifting dunes. Though trade routes weave through the valley, few dare to explore the forsaken temple ruins, each haunted by whispers of deadly creatures and the lingering wrath of the Lost Gods, who are said to still wander the desolate sands....

In Sands of Fate, the Moon Gate Exploration Co. gears up for an archaeological exploration in the Desert Realm of Damaz. This is a different kind of adventure - one where a party of rogues, rangers, and druids with skills in ancient dialects and backgrounds as archaeologists would be well suited to the discoveries ahead. They will embark on the exploration with a wagon packed with trade goods and the items needed for survival in this unknown territory - and the added mission of searching for the Original Company, one that has gone missing, only to find themselves in the middle of an intrigue that involves the Immortals of Fate themselves.

Join the Moon Gate Exploration Co.
As the Moon Gate Exploration Co. travel through the arched stone portal, they find themselves in unfamiliar lands filled with dangers and horrors untold. The terrain, towns, and even the creatures encountered therein may not resemble any that they have seen in their previous travels. Or they might seem much too familiar for their comfort. Regardless of the risks, exploration is their business, and the company sets forth to map yet another uncharted realm.

Moon Gate adventures are written for and inspired by the characters that are brought to the table. There are inspirations instead of dedications, and this exploration is filled with nods to encounters that have left lasting impressions upon my players. - Stacy
