Beyond the Wall Wiki

 Beyond the Wall is a Dungeons and Dragons campaign using the Fourth Edition ruleset and loosely emulating Ben Robbin's West Marches Game. The core gameplay elements are player-driven exploration and a flexible cast of players and characters which allow for drop-in play without regular time commitments. Games are not regularly scheduled but rather planned when players are available and they are played either in person or on Roll 20. For more information about the game or how to join take a look at the New Player Guide or the Frequently Asked Questions.

Explore the Frontier
The lands beyond the wall are wild and largely unknown. Imperial scouting parties haven't ventured beyond Lastport in generations and what little knowledge was recorded is difficult to find and often wildly inaccurate.

Locations

 * Populated places aren't terribly common in the wilds beyond the wall but entire adventures might revolve around these points of light in the frontier.
 * Points of interest include everything else - from a hidden groves to mysterious temples and twisting dungeon complexes buried beneath the earth.

Meet the Cast

  "It is our manifest destinty to overspread and to possess the whole of the continent which Providence has given us for the success and very survival of the Empire entrusted to us by our ancestors. It falls on you adventurer, explorer, soldier, scout, and sage to bring light to the dark places which have yet to see the brilliance of the Empire."
