The campaign I'm starting next week

So after watching these again and the constant begging of my players for a campaign set in exandria, I wrote a campaign for my friends using the vox machina and mighty nein members as NPCs in one specific circumstance. Starting at level 3 starting at the 3rd level set in whitestone in taldorei in a future roughly 100 years give or take past the events of vox machina in the year 925 post divergence. where both the empire and Kyrn dynasty were merged into the federation of free nations who founded the explorers guild with the goal of exploring the desolated, war torn, seemingly unpopulated continent of eberron which was forced from its own future timeline with Exandria's world in a mysterious event that displaced time and space 50 years prior. Over the last fifty years they have sent four expedition fleets to eberron with nobody ever returning except one year ago the body of a deceased adventurer was found on a boat being carried by a heavily damaged linemen R22 off the coast. Make warforged from eberron but kalashtar just randomly started being born in Exandria when eberron appeared. Same with all races from eberron except shifters they live on eberron and are very native American like in culture and way of life. Also using the group patron function I will give the group a patron the raven queen. I'll Have the players go to different realms specifically in this order, the feywilds, where they might first get a hint at Circe and Hati's relationship. Shadowfell, where it is revealed who kaious' father is and part of what he did in his past Dal Quor the realm of dreams, where they see kaious' fathers dreams and what motivated him to evil, and where they learn he transported himself across time and realms to cause the disaster that brought eberron to the lands of exandria and he and the Betrayer gods have converted the entire population of eberron into a massive army of demon possessed warforged automatons. and find the children of malice opened a portal to the Nine Hells of Baator and fight kaious' father in City of Dis before he escapes and they get pulled back to taldorei by the raven queen. The netherdeep, where kaious' father is plotting his final revenge, but escapes again back to taldorei. Characters are: a 20 year old hati vex (permanent npc who travels with the group), a Twilight domain cleric who worships the raven queen, she's a purple skinned a female Fierna tiefling with long silver hair unknowingly hati and shin were separated at birth when a dragon attacked their home kidnapping her and she doesn't know she's shin's sister she will sleep with anyone she finds attractive, might develop a crush on Circe ravenmaw after walking in on her bathing at night in a lake, and shortly after this the fey start stealing her clothes at random too just like with circe. and then realizes she only does that to hide her own insecurities about having been the slave of that dragon in the past before Ryu Foresaken-moon and his master old hero Grog strongjaw saved her and in her past, But Grog died doing so and she then heard the voice of her patron, the raven queen awakening her power as a Twilight domain cleric. And she's been traveling with Ryu across taldorei ever since, prefering to use a mace and shield or a Warhammer with scale mail made from a wyvern they slew together. She has painful reactions in her womb If dragons get close. She is unknowingly the granddaughter of Percival Fredrickstein von Musel Klossowski de Rolo III and vex'ahlia She will discover the ancient forgotten ritual that made the raven queen a god and if she dies she will reincarnate as a new raven queen.

Ryu Foresaken-moon a 35 year old male dragonborn psi-fighter warrior with red and black scales a black hair and a black braided goatee, and alligator like tail with spikes. And wearing black and gold plate armor the details linked to hati vex's. include that he's from Westruun and he was found and raised as the last student and son of, the not so smart, Grog Strongjaw who taught him how to fight, the meaning of what honor is, to always respect the little folk and help them out when you can, and most importantly how to drink. They drank their way across taldorei and wildmount drinking in literally every pub and tavern grog could remember before he was 15. When he was 15 they first see the dragon and saved hati from a dragons lair as a 15 year old girl being used for breeding stock for a sick twisted dragon. grog enraged by the sight will see her and yell "i would like to rage!!" Leaping upwards and using his titanstone knuckles to enlarge himself and beat the dragon nearly to death with his bare hands while laughing. But getting killed by his own axe by the dragon in a last ditch effort and it escaped. earning the last gift he would receive from Grog, his axe, before he died from wounds after fighting the dragon. Ryu then used his own two hands to rip off his own wings in a show of pure hatred and disgust for his dragon heritage hates dragons and other dragonborn because of what that one did to hati. He then spent spent 9 years getting stronger and traveling with hati to keep her safe until they went to join the fifth expeditionary fleet together. He gets the titanstone knuckles eventually. As well as finding a cursed halberd that will summon the souls of the chroma conclave from the nine hells as dragon liches when it shatters as well as temporarily turn him human (use Goliath stats)

Circe Ravenmaw (player character) a 21 year old female kalashtar circle of stars druid, with short white hair, and violet eyes her quori spirits are a black raven with white eyes and a white raven with black eyes keeping in mind time flows differently in the fey realm and what happened 50 years ago in exandria was just 2 years in the feywilds. she doesn't quite understand the concept of time and she randomly seemingly strips nude without realizing a mischievous fey is stealing her clothes at random moments outside of combat for comedic effect. She's constantly walking in on people in various intimate scenarios and she is a nudist, polyamorous, lgbtq, star watching, mushroom eating, always herb smoking, 21 year old. she is the daughter of Keyleth and Vax'ildan she just doesn't know that. she just appears human but is a kalashtar because of the magical aftereffects of the exploits of her legendary parents. Keyleth never told vax'ildan she was pregnant and he never knew before she disappeared leaving giving birth in the feywilds and leaving her with the sovereign with only a silver ring to remember her by before she left. and vax'ildan has been looking for her ever since. She And Circe is looking for answers to who her parents are, and why she was abandoned. As well as answers to a strange plague that is destroying the feywilds that suddenly appeared 50 years ago.

Kaious Maelstrom a 90 year old (appears to be in his 30s) male shadar-kai elf and a shadow sorcerer he has pale grey skin and shadow like tattoos that constantly wriggle and move like snakes on his arms and chest, he's wearing a sleeveless, hooded black with gold accents set of robes from the artificer academy, he's the descendant of the ruling family of the now dead Kyrn dynasty and his father, unknown to kaious, is leading the children of malice and uexperimented on his pregnant wife, and used forbidden, unnatural magic to give his son shadow sorcery in the womb which is the reason kaious' mother died in labor only to disappear and leave kaious alone before he was even born he was found by Scanlan Shorthalt and Pike Trickfoot who raised him. He joined the de rollo artificer academy to study magic in hopes of understanding his powers and became best friends with shin hexblood, secretly super intelligent but a slacker and a ladies man.

linemen R22 a 7ft tall warforged echo-knight fighter with a blackened steel body and a blue gem with a glowing unnatural blue light coming from cracks and tubes all around his body. keeping in mind he doesn't know he was human and neither does anybody else. And his energy glows blue not green. He was a human and a member of the first expedition fleet from 40 years ago, but was painfully and horrifically converted into the warforged linemen R22 his human body left as an empty shell by the awaited one, feeling everything happening to him but without the release of death before he somehow escaped eberron and lost his memory found a year ago by the academy and restored becoming the character linemen R22. When his memory starts to return as "glitches" his blue glow temporarily turns red and he possibly loses control of his echos.

He also doesn't know he is the grandson of Percival de Rolo III and vex'ahlia. his true full name is Percival Fredrickstein von Musel Klossowski de Rolo v. He betrays the party in the last and fuses his armor and all the arms of the Betrayer relics with the awaited one to become a new biomechanical monster called "the anointed one" due to the demon orthax and the now lich dr. Anna Ripley and fuses his cursed suit of armor he got from a journal he found in the academy archives once owned by Anna and found in the remains of the chroma conclave 100 years ago and recovered by the academy. The party must choose to kill him and save his soul (triggering a transportation to occur and send the party to hell to recover his soul where they finally meet and fight orthax who has both Keyleth and vax'ildan hostage but they have help with pike trickfoot and scanlan shorthold's unexpected assistance and the spirits of Grog strong jaw, Percival Fredrickstein von Musel Klossowski de Rolo III, and vex'ahlia show up to help as well.
