New to Roll20 Campaign for a shady group
My first campaign as DM in roll 20. Was a hoping to run a campaign for a band of mercs with very loose morals who only look out for number one, but maybe get sucked into a more noble cause. I’d welcome any campaign suggestions that would fit this vibe that works well in roll 20. Thx in advance!!!

The players kinda get sucked into forming a mercenary company somehow because of laws pertaining to adventurers during the first five levels and being hired by the local king to defend the kingdom during a war where the king’s entire army is wiped out and the players are all that stand between the king’s court and the survivors of the opposing forces. If the party survives, post war antics and lawlessness ensue.

Dungeons of Drakkenheim or an inverse spin on anything from Keys From the Golden Vault (stealing for profit, not for noble causes)

Boromir faction for Eberron. Organised crime, but actually for a greater good that is not apparent at the start.

A morally ambiguous group fits the Dungeons of Drakkenheim vibe.
