Introduction

Mundus Atrox is a campaign for Dungeons & Dragons 5th edition.

It is a high-Mana world driven by extreme climate and geography, with elements of steampunk and indications of a techno-magical collapse of Civilization in ancient times.

Dwarves and Gnomes hunker down in their Mines, Humans flee the worst weather in mobile cities, and Elves chase the Perpetual Spring in flying castles.

Dragons rule the sky. Unnatural and strange beings stalk the land. Almost anything fixed in place is battered or corroded to oblivion within a few seasons.

Strewn across the world, ancient Artifacts range in size from a marble to a city. Their effects vary from mundane to world-altering, with size being little clue to their potency.

The search for these items, and encounters with mythical races and guardians, become the catalyst for adventure.
