About the adventure
📖Learn to play Dungeons and Dragons📖 "Been busy with a campaign with Tom for quite a while now. I do about 3 games a week at the moment, and can honestly say that my game with Tom is my favourite. I started out with Tom in my first DND game. He's patient with newcomers and very knowledgeable about game mechanics. He's always well-prepared for our sessions, but is flexible and allows for player creativity. We have a great time every Saturday, always a laugh. One of the highlights of my week! I cannot recommend Tom enough for both DND newcomers and seasoned players." - Jonathan 🧭Exploration🧭 🏕️Survival🏕️ 🐱🐉Dinosaurs (races)🐱🐉 🗝️Treasures🗝️ 💣Traps💣 🦁Jungle🦁 About the Story A death curse has befallen the land. It's effects are causing resurected people to wither away over time. Even worse, the souls of the dead are being stolen by somesort of Necromantic ritual. All clues lead to the jungle of Chult... Will you be able to uncover who's behind this curse and find a way to stop them? During this official Wotc adventure, from Level 1 to Level 11 and perhaps beyond, you'll join the expedition into the depths of Chult. In addition to using the official module by Wotc I use The Tomb Of Annihilation Compendium & The DM's resources to spice up the game with even more unique Npc's, quests and dungeons. Wheter you're new to D&D or a veteran, I'll happily help you along with character creation, learning the rules, learning Foundry and any every other aspect of the game.

About me
⏰My Timezone is CET/CEST (Brussel-Europe)⏰. And yes I do sleep at night.😂 If you want to know who Tom is and what he brings to the table in regards to his Storytelling style, have look below or send a personal message via Startplaying Games or visit The Gaming Peeples Discord channel via this link: https://discord.gg/nEGMMRmtNz ☀️ ABOUT STORYTELLER TOM ☀️ 42y-He/Him🍟 Greetings and Salutations, I'm Tom from the sunny country of Belgium (Antwerp) where I live with my girlfriend and our 2 cats Louis & Minnie. Besides living a 'normal life', I'm a Storyteller with a passion for over 27 years of non stop telling tales. I love playing in roleplay Heavy, sandbox orientated campaigns, with focus on player character development, who make the world their own. While interacting with interesting and engaging NPC's with their own unique stories and silly voices. Plus I love adding lot's of improv and unexpected solutions to many obstacles our players face during our stories. In 2021 during the Pandemic, I landed in a burnout, due to my work taking over my life. Running over 60 to 70 hours per week for a job with no benefits nor any thanks given. So I decided that in May 2022, that all would change and I would build upon my passion for storytelling. This with my own brand The Gaming Peeples.

Creativity
Storytelling
Inclusive
I really enjoyed my first experience with this DM so when a new game was starting up I jumped for a spot as soon as I could! Very inclusive and beginner friendly, the DM knows the rules and is very patient and kind with newbies. He makes full use of the resources available to him and puts in many hours of hard work to make each player feel included in the game world. He has a great sense of humour and is warm and welcoming every session. Overall, I really recommend this DM especially to newcomers to the hobby, he will make your first experience with the game amazing and leave you wanting more.
Tom is a talented and wonderful GM. His guidance of character and story is masterful. Weaving character plots and personal tweaks seamlessly into printed material (I have only played Icespire peak with him so far) gives the world and the story a depth that I find rewarding. His combats are smooth with excellent soundtracks the add ambiance without overpowering the mood. He has a wonderful balance of player agency while still moving the story forward and how he resolves skill checks and narrative events are as fun as they are insightful. I really cannot recommend him highly enough, it is one of my favorite tables to have sat at as a player.
Tom's games are fantastic, creative fun. He's great at setting the mood and describing the environment while keeping the plot moving along and players engaged. When playing in a system to which I was new, he was very helpful in explaining the rules and mechanics and still kept the session flowing. I've really enjoyed my games with Tom and I'm looking forward to many more to come!
I am currently part of a Tombs of Annihlaiton campaign and we're about 8ish sessions in (I think??) Tom is a super talented DM that makes sure to create space for player RP/creative use of spellwork + skills and overall just helping keep the world bustling/making sure we all know how to use the tools provided to us (and he provides a LOT!). Great guy and DM with a great sense of how to keep the game moving while still making time for all of the shenanigans.
Character creation
Creating your character
🛡️Characters will begin at Level 1. 🛡️🛡️We'll use the point buy system or the roll system, this is up to the players. We decide this as a group before Session 0. 🛡️🛡️🛡️If this is your first campaign, I would recommend keeping your race, class, subclass & background choices to the playersguide manual. But should you want to play something from another official WoTc source, reach out to me and I'm sure I can accommodate. In addition, the Tome of Heroes book from Kobold press can be used. As will Kibbles Crafting Guide to replace the 'normal' crafting rules. Both books will be made available during game play sessions. 🛡️🛡️🛡️🛡️Homebrew idea's will have be submitted prior to game start or prior to session 0 and will be approved on case by case basis. No Legend and UA content is allowed. 🛡️🛡️🛡️🛡️🛡️Any additional concerns or questions, send me a private message
