Delver's Guide to Beast World | New Player Friendly | Safe Space

Dungeons & Dragons 5e | Campaign

About the adventure

This game will start at level one, and is using the fan-made setting book "Delver's Guide to Beast World." Resources will be disseminated to players at the beginning of session zero. We will discuss applicable themes and levels of comfort during session zero, so the story is not set in stone until I've decided what everyone is comfortable with. For a bit of clarity, however, the Delver's Guide to Beast World places some restrictions on character creation, specifically only allowing races from the book, which are entirely anthropomorphized animalistic races except for the book's version of human. As such, it is not compatible with D&D Beyond, as the book is not on that website. I will be enforcing this and other setting-specific rules, which we'll go over in more detail during session zero once everyone has the necessary resources. I have run this setting for different, varied groups, and am excited to continue running it. It's a different take on adventuring, one which doesn't lead to starving the players of gold, and can ultimately lead to greater depths of comradery. The setting naturally lends itself to being rather new-player friendly, and I'm more than willing to lean into that to make it a joyous time for any newcomers we've got at the table.

How to prepare

Webcam and mic will be required for this game, as well as some sort of character sheet - whether form fillable or paper - to keep track of things. Regular software for character sheets such as D&D Beyond won't work for this game, unless you use custom settings to fill it in. Players are allowed to roll their own dice, or use a dice roller, their preference. I won't be monitoring your rolls. This is an act of trust between me and you; don't fudge your dice, and I won't fudge mine.

What I provide

I will provide all necessary books and resources.

Gameplay details

My games are generally combat-heavy, though with smaller groups like the one I'm aiming for here, I like to do a bit more roleplaying.

How will character creation work

Character creation will happen during session zero. If you have experience with the game, I recommend figuring out your class, but race will have to wait until session zero when the resources are disseminated.
