DnD Magic is illegal

This was a fun campaign I was in that didn't last long but I would like to be a part of.... just a brief go over what the campaign intelled.


Something happened that nearly destroyed the world. Like some pineappled off god, a war, or some awfull thing... no one really knows for sure history of it is forbidden, all anyone really knows is magic caused it. Magic nearly wiped out all life.

Magical creatures and magic users have ether been driven from the common world or killed off, and magic is iligal to all but the government and a few organizations approved by the government. (even then they don't get much, stuff like you are alowed to have masterwork tools)

Most of the known population lives in one city that is devided up into many districts and ruled by the few magic users that survived the disaster, some have become litches and there was a group of 6 or 9 litches that where the head of the goverment. They are tyrenical and rule unfairly but people ether think that it is for there own good or are to scared to do anything about it.

Magic of any kind is illegal and the users are ether killed and draged off to never be seen again. (likely used to power spells or forced to make magical items for the goverment)

Magical items are illegal save for a few government approved ones (like some healing potions or the like) and they are expensive.  Masterwork items are considered magical aswell and are illegal.  Only a few people can get permission to have these items outside the government and it isn't easy.

Districes of the city are closed off from eachother and often it is hard to get from one to the other with out clearance as any alerts of any kind will wind up with check points or lock downs.

Outside the city there are towns the goverment rules over but most of them are just for farms and the like. There are still monsters and people don't like to leave the city.


The only allowed religion was some sort of death related one anything else was iligal.

Nothing outside the kingdom was known about... it was a large kingdom before but with most everyone moved into the capital no one really knows what was going on in most of the kingdom besides the goverment and no one seamed to know what was going on outside the kingdom

Non human races where treated like stawberry and generally where not allowed out of districts set up just for them.




The whole thing with the game is that it's been a long time and magic is starting to come back on it's own naturally.... creatures are returning out of hiding, monsters showing up more and more, and people being born with inate magical gifts on the rise.

The players all ether have magic or are trying to help magic users.

magic users had bluff, sense motive, and a few other skills added to there class skills due to the kind of life they had to live, and got exstra skill points to put into such areas...  and playing gestalt, if you had dual magic classes I beleave they got a bonus feat.  Any race besides human got descuise as a class skill too

Everyone had the silent casting and didn't need a spell book, but as a trade off they didn't get any spells for free and what would be level 1 starting spells are level 0 they pick from.... and i think maybe ONE level 1 if at all... I don't remember...

People didn't get spells from gainning levels.... only from practicing magic or studing spell books/scrolls and the like.

But didn't matter much because magic of anything like level 3 or over and alarm spells would go off attracting all sorts of attention. And most every guard had items that let them detect magic so level 0 was about all you could get away with when a gaurd was near.

Also meant having a familar... had to stay un-summoned, or had to unsummon it a LOT

(and hardly anyone had pets for fear of people thinking it was a familiar)




it was a fun game had to sneak around a lot and didn't use much magic, found out the government had some traitors in it and one of the cities out in the sticks allowed magic.

We where trying to find a way out of the city but the districts were locked down and we where in the theives/slum district trying to find a way out of town when the only clear way out was through the church where there had been protest and one of the litches was there investigating... x.x

It was interesting and there was little fighting at the time because everyone was super outmatched combat wise.

I was playing a wizard/artifacer.. my bisnuess had been shut down because I had made something masterwork and things got unpleasant and I had to close down shop because I couldn't get any permissions and they seassed my assets.... said i should count myself lucky lol

and was an elf wich was prity easy to hide XD

After further review...yes I was the one that ran that game.

If you can get enough people I will restart the game.

Either a complete restart or pick up where the game was paused at.

The choice is up to the players.
