Ghosts of Saltmarsh
Begin in Saltmarsh and follow smuggling rumors, coastal routes and unsettling tides.
Story background
You begin as the selected database character: in solo mode, you are one selected adventurer; in multiplayer, you belong to the selected adventuring party. The story opens at the docks, where a fishing boat has returned without its crew and left behind clues to an unexplained coastal crisis. Your class, background, equipment, and other live state come from the runtime character record.
How to play
Investigate visible clues, negotiate with waterfront factions, explore the coast, and decide when to pursue smugglers, confront sahuagin threats, or deal with the danger of the undead. The scenario supports either solo play or a party; characters who were not selected are not required for the story to proceed.
Content notes
Includes drowning, smuggling, undead, sahuagin threats, maritime danger, and violence.
