The Land of Gigas

Inspired by a number of my favorite fantasy stories, I created "The Land of Gigas," a medium-length D&D 5e campaign that takes place on the planet Gigas in an alternate dimension from our own. I took a more episodic approach to the game, breaking the story up into smaller 1-2 session beats that gave the players more defined checkpoints.

The characters arrived in the world of Gigas after evacuating from our dimension, which was being overrun by an alien menace. After exploring a small civilization housed on the back of a huge bird, the party was hired as a mercenary force tasked to reclaim this new planet. They were sent out on missions to take down Gigas, huge creatures that could only be defeated from the inside. Obtaining the magical hearts that powered these chaotic evil giants would destroy them and allow the players to become more powerful. Additionally, as no adventure is complete without some spending cash, the team was paid for their work, and they could spend their hard-earned money on equipment, magic items, furniture to decorate their house, and fashion.
