 ====== Campaign Ideas/Scratchpad ======
-===== Alpha and Omega Prologue =====
-  * Redemption story - characters start as anti-heroes and become heroes.
-    * "Curse of Adel"? 7/10/some number of swords marked on the heart that kill them after something?
-    * Have to "do" righteous deeds based on number of the curse?
-    * Twist: End up having swords removed by others, their own actions do nothing? How to phrase smartly?
-  * Initial colonization generation of Dythos
-  * Free Company? Something with Dawn since they will come from the east?
-  * Taming wilderness
-  * Tribal politics
-  * Formation of the Whites/Blues
-  * NPCs
-    * Lamp - start as agkelos and see her fall to sek-agkelos, maybe as a sacrifice to remove curse swords?
-  * Regional catastrophe
-    * Aeseri offshoots/monotheists
-    * Villain - Immortal? Prophet of Elesh? Wants to kill the Creator? Immortal with Family Drama?
-      * Dragon Apollyon? Symbolism could be Dragon:Seal:Player. Player Resurrected? How to not make obvious. Mark of ~Adel turns into seal to protect against dragon?
-  * No starting magic users but Player Fates: Prophet, Judge, Priest, Paladin, etc. lead all characters to some level of divine magic
-  * Dusk Riders - frontier calvary (free company? Despot?), maybe focused on finding monothiests in the West for some hidden power?
-  * Heroes - those that end up sacrificing for the players:
