The Boughs - A Campaign Setting
The story begins with two characters who have no memories of their past lives and become rangers to survive in an unknown world filled with dangerous creatures called Ember-Hoorns (who are similar looking trees), Yiks, Shadowlisters/Howlers etc., where the only safe place is inside massive city sized Boughs. The players will learn about survival tactics such as building shelter from dead wood and staying away at night when most of these monsters come out to eat anything they can find in their way - including people!

There will likely not only adventure-wise adventures happening on this world but also other story elements such as quests given out from Bou
