==Plot Summary== The party travels to the [[Isle of Dread]], and discover a plan by [[Demogorgon]] to unleash a literal plague of malevolence-inducing madness on the [[multiverse]], leading to a climatic showdown in the [[Abyss]]. It's a campaign that runs from 1st level to 20th level. The story nominally takes place in the Greyhawk campaign setting, but is designed to be easily adapted to any of the other Dungeons & Dragons settings such as Forgotten Realms or Eberron. Much of the action is staged on the Isle of Dread, and Dungeon editor Erik Mona stated that, partially because of this, the campaign would contain a number of Mystara references, including specific monsters which had not previously appeared in the then-current edition of Dungeons & Dragons. The campaign begins in the city of Sasserine and nearby environs, where the party discovers the first clues about an impending disaster called the Savage Tide. The action then moves to the Isle of Dread for the middle portion of the series, and the party must deal with the dangers of the island and unearth more information about the Savage Tide. After a short stop in the depraved pirate city of Scuttlecove, the final third of the campaign takes place in the [[Abyss (Dungeons & Dragons)|Abyss]], where the party must find a way to stop the Savage Tide and confront its architect. The ''Savage Tide'' Adventure Path consists of the following installments: {| class="wikitable" style="width:100%;" |- ! width="60" | Chapter ! Title ! Authors !
