Save Aladia from a sinister doom in a 6-level arc set during the realm’s most prolific period of magical turmoil.
🗺️ Explore a divided landscape and decimated pantheon brought low by unchecked corporate influence, the death of deities, and the shadow of unseen corruption.
⚔️ Unravel the Pyramid Scheme wrought by Grimdark Industries, the most wicked empire in history. Nearly a century into the making, the evil industrial giant is nearly ready to execute the final stage of its diabolical plan for world domination.
đź“– Clash with bizarre foes, confront the horrors beneath the realm's surface, and navigate quests full of danger, absurdity, and jaw-dropping twists.
Founded by Felonious Grim and Salazar Black a century ago, Grimdark Industries' rock bottom prices and same day courier services fueled their economic rise to amazonian proportions. Now, decades into their trade empire, Grimdark stands ready to execute its final transaction: complete their pyramid scheme, and achieve total dominion over all of Aladia.
And yet, brave souls still scrabble in a desperate attempt to tip the scales. If the resistance is to keep any hope, the fight against Grimdark needs more champions...Perhaps, a small group of unlikely heroes, all with properly tragic backstories, will be enough to save Aladia?
ALADIA’s all-new crafting system helps every character reach their full potential! Choose one of 8 crafting classes, from alchemy and culinary exploration to invention and mystical soothsaying, each one offering vastly different consumables, enhancements, or gear to create. During your adventure, you'll have the chance to seek out ingredients, collect recipes, and put hammer to anvil to forge unique items for yourself and your fellow party members.
Once you've crafted enough as that artisan, you'll level up and ascend to the rank of Mastercrafter! It is only these lords of the workbenches that can conceive of Aladia's most powerful - and terrifying - artifacts.
The Spellsmith — a titan of the forges who laughs in the face of cruel gods trying to limit your magical choices to mere "slots".
Through the power of chiseled abs, rock-hard mystical energy, and massive determination, a Spellsmith forges gear brimming with more magical potential than a lich’s wet dream. The gear they create introduces all-new spell effects to both battlefields and ballrooms alike, birthing devastating interactions depending on what combinations you choose to wield!!
Some “scholars” have argued that spellcasting is a weapon too powerful for the battlefield — but we disagree! You’ll have over 30 deadly, gorgeous, and gloriously weird new spells to unleash, whether you’re a Spellsmith forging enchanted gear, a Scribe crafting scrolls, or any other caster looking to stir up magical mayhem.
Housing in ALADIA grows with your party - expanding in scope and power as you do. Pool your resources, pick the perfect spot, and create something truly yours.
Go functional, go ridiculous, or both… it’s your base, your party's batcave, and maybe the closest you’ll get to home ownership.
Every great adventurer needs a great steed. In ALADIA, mounts grow with you, gain new abilities without extra bookkeeping, and fit seamlessly into any campaign. Choose from 16 unique partners and explore Aladia, Faerun, Exandria or any other setting!
To match the outrageous power you’ll wield as adventurers, ALADIA delivers a bestiary of over 40 highly reasonable and "responsibly" balanced creatures — from adorable terrors to apex nightmares like the Great Rimeshark!
Explore any realm in the 5e universe as one of five ancestries unique to ALADIA's four regions:
And some new takes on old favorites! Choose to play as a member of an elven dynasty, halfling family, human tribe, or dwarven clan, each with lineages deeply rooted in Aladia's rich history.
