About the adventure
DO YOU DARE TAKE ON VECNA! (don't worry beginners can try haha) Eve of Vecna takes adventurers from the City of Never Winter all the ways to Hell (and maybe back) meeting famous characters from all over the D n D multiverse. It is designed for characters of levels 12-20 and a great game for beginners, novices and experienced players as I will be helping guide and educate you on D n D when needed (with you starting at level 12 you do need some experience with dnd I would say if you played 10 sessions or over you should be fine). Its a heavy RP game with lots of chance for character development and acting out your heroes, there’s still combat of course but it’s not a dungeon crawl. If you like the Critical Role style of play this is for you. I like to help my groups make friendships with each other so we can all be silly and have some fun. It is a difficult game getting to level 20 so be prepared for horrifying experience's but there will also be some lightness to keep you going. Hate Tech or Socially Anxious! I don’t like tech either so I’ve tried use the easiest ones available and that are free. Feeling anxious of meeting new people? You will be able chat to me before hand so you will know me before the game and I make sure all the groups are integrating and if you have a shy day sometimes that’s cool. (if you don’t understand any of the D n D words here don’t worry I will explain it)

About me
📜 Story tailored to the Party/Player's decisions (what you do matters) 🧭 Emphasis on exploration and discovering the D&D world around you 🎭 Intriguing NPC interactions and exciting social dynamics 🎨 Art work and maps specially made for your adventure 🧠 Theatre of the Mind playstyle for maximum creativity 🤗 A safe and accepting space for all players 💪 Support for new players, so everyone can join in on the fun! 🤝 Make friends with your interests as you join the group 🎲 Very easy set up on the tech side so you can play straight away Not going to lie I LOVE the Critical Role show. If you like that style of play I am probably a good fit for you. I prefer story over mechanics, and hope to see some contributions from you to make the story is more fun through role playing. There’s a heavy focus on building your characters background, personality and goals from the get go. I give time for players to socalise with each other in each game to do this. There will be monsters and fighting but also merriment and heart ache. (generally every other game we have a big fight session, while the other is exploration and socialising) I try to conform my style to whatever is best-suited to each party and their campaign. There are so many ways to enjoy this game that I find it works best to ask players a lot of questions, seek a lot of feedback, and always be prepared to adjust.

I was terrified about starting D and D. I ramble when I'm nervous, and at no point did I feel stupid or put down. He was kind and patient and happy to give us the room we needed to feel comfortable. Amazing GM and very intuitive on when to jump in and help us if we're panicking. Now, a few months down the line, I am involved with 2 of Martins's campaigns, and I'm having a blast, loving meeting new people and gaining more confidence in myself as a player. Martin has been very supportive of any decisions I make, and I trust him as a GM to guide the story in fun and interesting directions.

Martin is a brilliant GM who always creates an effective narrative and environment for players. Martin’s games include a good balance of exploration, socialising with NPCs, and combat. I would recommend playing with Martin as DM to anyone, but especially anyone looking to start role playing games.

He was my introduction to DnD and have had a great time along the way. Always incredibly helpful and knowledgeable. Always takes time to explain things and takes our groups silliness in his stride 😁 Will definitely be looking to have more games with him

Martin is a patient and welcoming GM. He's genuinely interested in the players, encouraging and responsive. Having a great time in this ongoing Strixhaven campaign. After "graduation" I have every intention of enrolling in whatever comes next.

The amazing experience that Martin provides in his sessions, are over the top gameplay and also storyline. He combines the story of multiple people and intertwining them together to make a beautiful story that’s enjoyable for everyone who is involved.
Character creation
Creating your character
You will start at level 8 (or higher depending when you join the adventure) and make your character in DND Beyond, point buy/standard array, and will I will give you a link to join my campaign. No home brew is allowed, and you’re free to use any of my shared resources on D n D Beyond to make your character and I can help guide you in the make. I will make myself available before then to help craft your character either through discord chat or a brief 1-1 free of charge pre game.
This game will be played every Monday at 7.30pm UK time. There's no bad time to pop into the game we've been playing for over 100 games. Currently we have a level 17 Half Orc Paladin, Sea Elf Rogue, Owlin Sorcerer, Shifter Monk & Centaur Druid . Last minute players are welcome join but if you join over 12 hrs before a game is going start you would need have a character ready on d n d beyond to play.
What to expect
Preparing for the session
I use Session Zero to address any safety concerns the game might entail, and I am always open to being messaged privately if further concerns arise. I prefer to run a tight ship and keep the story moving, but the most important thing to me is that all my players are having fun. I will provide a Discord chat room for the game to be played and also a text chat room so you can talk to me or the rest of the party when you wish to. You will need the free link for Discord I send you and I use Owl Bear which you just need click to access for maps. The only registering is a free D n D beyond account to make your character (takes about 2 mins to do) Equipment needed. A computer or tablet, computer will make it easier. webcam(adds more fun but you don’t have to use) and a mic.
