About the adventure
Want to learn to play D&D? Or maybe you want to step up your game even farther, or experience adventures in a way you haven't before? If so, you need to join our "Ultimate Heists for Fun and Profit" campaign. Published D&D author and professional DM Connor (@TheHealerDM on Twitter) will take you through a blended exploration of two major campaigns, the new "Keys from the Golden Vault," and "Waterdeep: Dragon Heist." In this campaign, players will take the role of a character in a professional investigation and sleuthing agency. This agency (to be named by the players) searches for missing people, hunts down difficult objects to procure, and engages in the funnest shenanigans. Be you the face, wheelman, gadgeteer, or other role, you will contribute to team success. New players are welcome. They will receive tips on character building, the rules, and how to succeed in D&D group play. They will leave the campaign feeling an expert. Both new and experienced players will see a time-spanning campaign where their characters make a difference, a game where their backstories and actions matter on both personal and macro levels. This experience is curated to group tastes by a DM skilled in running diverse moods and themes. This experience includes the following: * A Session 0, where we build character concepts and relationships, while talking about what we want from a campaign and setting up safety tools * An introduction where your character, a member of a skilled team, finds a place in the world * Assignments will take you through various places You will be spoiled in this game. Players have complete access to a D&D Beyond library worth over $1000. We use Roll20 Premium as our VTT, Zoom communications (higher quality video, sound, and stability to Discord - plus encryption), and sound effects via Syrinscape. No expense is spared in making the absolute best game for you. Plus nearing the end of the campaign, the DM will personally send you a thank you gift for your participation. Don't wait. Connor's games tend to fill very quickly, and new games aren't offered often.
This is an every-other-Monday campaign. Please read the descriptor (I believe I answered most questions), and please send me a message if you wish to know more. This is going to be a LOT of fun!

How to prepare
Players should download the following software and have accounts for the following software. Only free accounts are required, as the costs of all subscriptions are bore by the DM. * Zoom * A browser (Chrome or Firefox) with the Beyond20 extension installed and enabled * Roll20 * D&D Beyond Players should have access a computer capable of running the above software simultaneously, as well as a working mic and camera. As a potential Learn to Play campaign, players do not need to read or know substantial things before the Session 0.
What I provide
The DM will maintain premium paid accounts for shared software, granting players unlimited and safe communication, access to maps and handouts, character sheets, a dice roller, and unlimited access to all online assets for D&D through D&D Beyond.
Gameplay details
Players can expect a fun and light gaming experience. Plenty of opportunities for comedy, wonder, and spectacle are available. Safety tools are critical to ensure this remains true. You can expect safety tools to be seamlessly woven into how the game is played - you might not even notice them happening. Session 0 is mandatory for all players (even late arrivals). Each game starts with a mental health check and ends with a discussion of the game. Players will be given opportunity to confidentially share their lines and veils, and the X card can be played in a number of easy ways. In short, a safe environment where players can build community and explore the game world will be fostered.

How will character creation work
Character concepts will be determined during our Session 0 using a "creation as play" method. Characters will start at Level 1 and will be made on D&D Beyond before Session 1 using directions shared at the Session 0. All characters will be part of an agency specializing in investigation, finding missing people, and "item procurement."
