About the adventure
BELL, BOOK, & CANDLE (EMPYREAN GOOD CAMPAIGN, WEDNESDAYS, Level 3-20+) : On the Southern Continent's Southern Coast, a Druid/Ranger Village, is shadowed by Medusa Tower several miles out on the coast, half sunken. Long ago, a piece of the moon was drawn down by great magics by a Lunar Druid to protect the city from the witch's curse that raises all dead touched by the earth, salt, or water of the coastal waters, raising everything from gorillas to killer whales that rise each night and hunt the beaches and jungle villages and ruins for life to devour and drag into the sea! This Campaign Begins with earning your Adult Status within the Tribe, a first step to becoming a Squire for your chosen House of [Empyrean Knights] each extoling a Virtue and mastering Empyrean Weapons (a step beyond exotic!) and learning new skills to hunt and gather in dangerous wilds for rare game, both flora and fauna, for your Tribe. After establishing your [Knighthood] as required, you may become part of society, finding a mentor, and learning the old ways of the trade known as [Old School] and be sent across the continent in a myriad of Journeyman tasks. In the third arc, a mysterious inheritance, The Manor of Secrets, is gripped tight within the coils of Capital City, just outside the Royal Castle rife with kooky beggars, devious nobles, and dangerous delvings into four intriguing dungeons. All of this builds up to a lengthy and meaty (oh my!) fourth arc with [Zodiac] Cursed Beasts blessed by the nightsky who have fallen to earth, hiding here and there within the realm, spreading their vile influence in multiple varied ways, corrupting man, beast, and The Land.. slay them to steal their power and purify the Zodiac Curse reconnecting The Land with Fate and The Stars Above!
Game style
Theater of the Mind
“Theater of the Mind” uses little to no visuals for scene settings and combat. Instead, the narrative imagery comes from the Game Master’s descriptions and character action and movement comes from Players’ descriptions.

This Character Begins as a Teenager Reaching Adulthood and Seeking To Be Recognized! ZERO KNOWLEDGE OF D&D / PATHFINDER / EMPYREAN IS REQUIRED.

Proficiencies
Players say this GM is great at:
World Builder
Creativity
Storytelling
Using a combination of Discord and Roll20 he builds a vivid world with soundtracks, images, and very detailed descriptions. His maps look plain at first but as you move through them he updates them with greater detail, making them feel alive. He's very inclusive and friendly to beginners and veterans alike. His work is based on D&D 3.5 but he will incorporate other similar systems such as Pathfinder and Star Wars D20 for people more familiar with those systems. With his Archetypes you start out with a few extra abilities over your class, and you learn more during battle which makes for new and interesting characters.
I have really enjoyed how expansive and well thought out the game and this world is. The only limits to the game are your own imagination and your effort to research, gather information, and communicate with those already playing. Everyone has been so helpful and fun to play with and I appreciate everything and everyone.
Additional details
How to prepare
Ideally a webcam and mic or cam/mic combination. Discord works well for the voice and Roll20 is working well for the maps, monsters, tokens, and interfacing.
What I provide
DIGITAL REWARDS: Players who complete this Adventure Module will gain the full PDF of "Empyrean : The Hyperfantasy RPG"! BECOME IMMORTAL: Players will earn Playtester credits in the official release of the digital and print versions. New Game+ and [Hard Mode] are Available for Repeat/Replays!
Gameplay details
I keep combat quick as there is a lot of it in my campaigns, even with new players I find they catch on well with my system and I encourage preplanning attacks and emphasis on both role playing and roll playing (as most players enjoy some of both, but some lean to one side or another moreso and I enjoy catering to all players needs, including those who are just along for the ride, the mastermind who must solve every puzzle and riddle, and the healer who just wants to keep everyone fed, laughing, and alleviated of status ailments! I encourage characters to learn new strategies to empower their own form of unique expression to ensure everyone is contributing but also having fun in their own way!
