Side Campaign (D&D 5th Edition)

In October 2017, a side campaign began in the Elven forest-city of Parke, during the year 11,232 BC, using the Dungeons & Dragons 5th Edition rules (henceforth referred to as "D&D 5e" or simply "5e").

Current State of the World
11,232 BC (11,232 years before the cataclysm by which the main campaign's calendar is measured) is during a time in Isen's history known as the Reign of Dragons.

In this period, Dragons (and other gargantuan monstrosities) dominate the planet, and have done so for millions of years. Humanoid civilisations exist and are beginning to thrive, but they live knowing their way of life can be decimated in a heartbeat, should a nearby dragon decide it.

Parke
Parke is a giant walled ring-shaped city separated by rivers into three distinct sectors: Residents, Trade, and Farmland.

The most noteworthy aspect of Parke is its towering buildings which are all housed inside monstrous ancient trees, many of which are interlinked by bridges made of branches.
