KAMI Gear: Crimson Lotus Coal Expanded

In the volcanic settlement of Sekitan Ridge, peace hangs by a thread.Deep beneath the Obsidian Peaks, the Kaijin smith-clans have discovered Guren no Sekitan, the Crimson Lotus Coal, a rare spiritual ore that burns hotter than any forge flame and amplifies the power of KAMI Gear. To the Kaijin, it is a divine gift. To the Tetsugan Dominion, it is the key to industrial supremacy. To the Kodama guardians, it is not a resource at all, but the wounded heart of something sacred that was never meant to be disturbed.A summit is called to prevent bloodshed.Before the night is done, saboteurs strike, the peace collapses and the adventurers are forced into the mines below the settlement, where ancient mechanisms, broken wards and forgotten relics point to a danger far older than political ambition.KAMI Gear: Crimson Lotus Coal Expanded is a complete three-act 5e campaign of political intrigue, spiritual unrest and escalating mech conflict. It blends feudal Japanese-inspired fantasy with giant spirit-bound mechanical guardians, factional tension, ancient trials and cinematic set-piece encounters.Inside this expanded edition, Games Masters will find a full campaign structure, player character options, NPCs, unique abilities, rewards, spells, random encounters, twists, bestiary entries, maps, mecha rules, advanced KAMI Gear customisation, pilot integration, faction-specific gear designs, downtime systems and fully worked encounters. The contents list runs from the core campaign through to advanced mecha combat rules, customisation options and additional player characters, making this far more than a simple adventure module.Crimson Lotus Coal is designed for groups who enjoy moral tension, layered worldbuilding and dramatic combat. The recommended starting point is level 3–5 for a party of four characters, with a story-rich, faction-driven style that mixes roleplay, exploration and cinematic battles.This is a world where power always has a cost.Every use of the coal brings short-term strength and long-term danger. The more it is mined, refined and burned, the more the mountain’s spiritual balance begins to fail. Fire spirits twist. old seals weaken, factions turn on one another and something beneath the deepest shaft begins to wake.The mountain burns. The Veil strains. And the fire beneath the world is beginning to speak. Read more
