Campaigns

Campaigns are the main storylines through which characters grow and change--both in skills as well as in personalities. Every decision a character makes influences the other characters around him and helps to create a conglomerate story. That story, while perhaps similar to stories others have created, is unique to each group of characters. Some campaigns are homebrew--ideas drawn forth purely from the GM's own creativity and mind--while others are based on pre-made campaigns available for purchase and download elsewhere, while yet others are a combination of the two. Some campaigns are complete in and of themselves, taking the characters through the entirety of their adventuring evolution. For other characters, multiple campaigns accomplish this growth.

Some stories, however, are not meant to be longer arcs, but rather short adventures or special days that different characters experience. These tales usually take place outside of main campaigns and are accomplished in one or several sessions. Whether the stories are just fun undertakings for the Player's enjoyment or smaller pieces of a Character's overall life experience is generally decided by the GM and his Players at the time of the one-shot or short. Because the Characters that the Players bring to these tales aren't necessarily adventuring buddies, tied to the same campaigns, the answer can sometimes be fluid--canon for some Characters while just a bit of fun (or a wild dream, even) for others.

Whichever type you prefer, we at Bard's Lore hope you enjoy listening to the stories we've created together!

A note on the recordings: due to different versions of Mumble, there are some recordings that suffer from a lack of good syncing. We apologize for any confusion or frustration that may arise from listening to those sessions.
