Campaign 1: Balance

"(...) The story of four idiots that played DnD so hard that they made themselves cry."

The Balance Arc, initially referred to as just The Adventure Zone, is the first campaign of The Adventure Zone.

Premise
The Balance Arc focuses on a trio of adventurers named Taako, Merle, and Magnus, who, following the first arc, work for an organization called the Bureau of Balance, led by a mysterious director. Their job is to find and retrieve powerful and ancient relics that, in the wrong hands, could potentially destroy the world. During their adventures, they meet a boy detective, fight ghost-possessed robots, and discover the true meaning of friendship (as well as a reality destroying horror).

Story Arcs
The Balance Arc's story arcs are broken up into Stories, beginning with Here There Be Gerblins. In between each story arc, Magnus, Taako, and Merle return to the Bureau of Balance's Moonbase for a trip to Fantasy Costco and some character management (Lunar Interludes).

Story 1: Here There Be Gerblins
The humble beginnings of the Tres Horny Boys, off on their first quest!

Story 2: Murder on the Rockport Limited
It's a train based adventure! Imagine Murder on the Orient Express (only with infinitely more Juicy Wizards and technicolor bowties).

Story 3: Petals to the Metal
2 Fantasy 2 Furious in this epic tale of battlewagon battles. Think Mad Max meets Wacky Races meets three fantasy dummies.

Story 4: The Crystal Kingdom
King Midas gone Crystal. Also, a rich world of fantasy elevators.

Story 5: The Eleventh Hour
The gang flaunts their new breezy summer looks in Refuge... over and over again.

Story 6: The Suffering Game
Merle, Magnus, and Taako head to Wonderland. What could go wrong?

Story 7: The Stolen Century
Before the beginning of the end, we return to the beginning of the beginning. Leave the D20s behind for this Powered by the Apocalypse interlude.

Story 8: Story and Song
The end is near here.

Lunar Interludes
Back to the Bureau of Balance to antagonize BoB employees, visit Fantasy Costco, and level up! Oh, and there's some real long-term plot stuff that is probably happening.
