Elves of Semberholme
The wood elves of the village of Sylvanhome have lived in this corner of the forest undisturbed for as long as anyone can remember... until now. As it makes its way through the dense woods¸ the party comes upon a community locked in a subtle¸ but tense debate over its future. Humans have made their way into this sylvan paradise and the elves aren't sure what to make of them. The hunters who just want to pursue game might be friendly¸ but the gang of bandits are mean and dangerous. Will the elves choose war or peace against the newcomers? The party has the chance to influence Sylvanhome's future¸ one way or another. Elves of Semberholme is set in the Forgotten Realms. It places Sylvanhome in the forest of Semberholme¸ near Battledale and the shores of Lake Sember. Human refugees from Tethyr have come here in search of a new life¸ but their presence disturbs the elves who have had the forest to themselves since time immemorial¸ and for whom the Retreat of the elves from Faerun remains a disturbing thought in the backs of their minds. Places by the Way is a series of short modules created by veteran RPG writer and developer Douglas Sun for use with Dungeons & Dragons 5th Edition. Think of them as glittering mosaic tiles that you can drop into a campaign to provide your player characters with diverting side quests and memorable interludes while they follow the overall story arc. After all¸ a great campaign world is one in which memorable experiences can be had even in places found by the way.
