About the adventure

Each of you has had the misfortune of being captured by the Drow, and have been subsequently held as prisoners within the Underdark - a realm of endless labyrinthine tunnels and caverns where the sun never shines. You each are currently in the process of awaiting transportation to Menzoberranzan, the City of Spiders, with one of the Dark Elves' outpost, and are now tasked with either two options: succumb to your fate, or escape the wonderland. Whether or not you've come to the Underdark willingly, or were merely at the wrong place at the wrong time, you have been ripe prey for the Drow's raid - and now you must work alongside your fellow prisoners to reach the surface!

About me

Hi there! I'm a forever GM/Keeper, and I'm going to be hosting a few paid games for the upcoming months. I've been playing both 5e and CoC 7th ed. for quite a few years now, and I'm wanting to give it a go in this space as well. I work strictly Theater of Mind (5e Narrative Guidelines) - and Roleplay is always my main focus through each campaign that I run, so there are no other platforms I utilize aside from Discord. I'm looking to put together some groups to start running with on a weekly basis - from 5e Modules to Call of Cthulhu scenarios and campaigns (down the line). I can't wait to start playing with you!

Character creation

Creating your character

A Session 0 will take place prior to the start of the campaign, and I will work alongside you to develop your characters and backstories if needed. We will all create characters at the same time, regardless. The levels present will be 1-15.

The current party

Begins Saturday, Nov. 20th

What to expect

Preparing for the session

Discord Voice Chat will be necessary throughout the entirety of this campaign. Dice will roll on Discord or D&D Beyond, depending on what we all agree upon. No other software will be utilized.

What Jacob brings to the table

I will provide links to the 5e Narrative Guidelines, as well as promise to show up with punctuality and be well-prepared for each session. I will also be receptive to feedback throughout the campaign, and allow the players to determine which roads they take and which decisions they make. However, choices may, indeed, have consequences.

Safety
