Dungeons & Dragons 5e | Campaign

About the adventure

Step into "Vahden," a custom world that's been marinating in "homebrew" uniqueness for almost half a decade. Enter the "Eastern continent," where the fabled lands of Elves, Furbolg, Leonen, and countless other races await you. Do you have an insatiable craving for "mystery," "danger," and "twists and turns"? Then come on board with me, and let's embark on an epic collaborative journey together that'll leave a lasting impression on you. The "Terrors of the East Campaign" is a wild ride through a land plagued by mysterious horrors. Dangerous creatures emerge to torment the hapless towns and cities of Cenilha. Starting out in a treacherous, unforgiving jungle, you and the Party are Tasked to Investigate the Jungle and these Terrors, stop these creatures at all costs. Lives have been lost, and the towns have been decimated, all thanks to these abominations' oddly intelligent mind. Will you step up and become the hero who saves these denizens, or will you cower in fear and watch your beloved homes be ripped to shreds? The fate of "Vahden" rests in your hands. Explore many unique landmarks and places ranging from the tropical forest of Cenilha and Goslank to the eastern forrests of the elves, the desert sands Yridse, to the Naldine Heights mountains, and the Frozen landscape of Proska. You can expect: - Custom and unique content, - Extensive roleplaying and voice acting from NPC's with sincere depth and backstories. - Challenging battles and unique monsters - Character driven immersion and story telling - A DM who continues to Learn a lot from DMs like Matt Mercer, Brennan Lee Mulligan and Mathew Colville - If you are looking for a DM that will work with you and help your character feel real and alive Join me

Wow. Cade is a great DM. He is definitely a pro. Like if you are going to pay someone to DM a session/campaign for you, this is who you want to do it. He is fair and also adventurous. He doesn't pull punches but also isn't bent on seeing you die. He goes with the flow but keeps you on track. He allows for creativity but reels you in. He is a great DM and is worth every penny you spend. If you have reservations about booking him, throw them out the door and give him a chance. I look forward to our sessions every week and am excited to play. Cade makes DND a fun experience and joins you to build a world and bring your character to life. I am very pleased and look forward to many more sessions.

I wish I could pick more tags. As a forever-DM, I just began a campaign as a player with Cade. I had no idea what to expect and Cade exceeded any expectations I could've had. He has created such an intriguing world and story, and completely draws you into it. He has gained a long-term player in me! Highly recommend!

Cade sets his games in a deeply rich world that he has clearly crafted over the years. This enables the kind of immersion that I really enjoy, even in a one-shot, because it allows me to drop into my character's perspective and make choices from there. Cade brings full colour, 3D NPCs to interact with and a fresh take on creating engaging scenes.

As a newish player I still struggle with strategy and some of the rules and things and they were super friendly and made it easy and didn't make me feel bad about it at all. They do their best to foster an inclusive and friendly space for everyone to have fun.

cade did a great job. I played in a one shot of his and it was fast paced and fun. in the one shot we were able to have full control of character choice and it didnt feel Railroady at all. He was really Great! I had a Blast playing my Wizard.

Additional details

How to prepare

- Make a free roll20 account (link for game will be sent prior to session) - Make a free Discord account ( link for server will be sent prior to session, game info will be posted there) -link for watch2gether will be sent. no need to make an account i believe you just follow the link. if not then the account is also free - Make a free Dndbeyond and create your character the (link will be provided to finalize creation with shared content.) -Write a backstory with npcs i can act out. write in information only your character would know or information your character guesses on. please do not have any final details unless of course that is information your character knows. also if you can include a secret pertaining to your story you dont want to tell people until you fully trust them. -find a picture online so I can create character tokens. or if you know how to you can make one for roll 20 - Microphone required (always a good idea to test the connection through the settings in discord prior to the game,) - A solid internet connection (will make your gaming experience more enjoyable) - A webcam is a bonus but not a requirement. ( sometimes its hard to read the room as a GM if we cant see facial expression cues, but some people don't like to be on camera and that's totally fine.)

What I provide

-I own the module on my Pro Roll20 account, it comes with beautifully illustrated color maps, tokens, dynamic lighting, and more! - Tokens galore for varied character and monster art. - I personally create most of my maps using Dungeon Alchemist. but I do use some premade maps on roll20 and Google Search -Music playlists via Watch2Gether

Gameplay details

(Some content in this campaign may be uncomfortable for some players, but are highly negotiable. The most important thing for me at my table is that the players have fun and get to cooperatively build a story together that they will remember fondly. Still I feel its good to list some content aspects upfront so a session 0 will when we discuss lines and veils etc.) I typically voice NPC's and love to roleplay, no matter what I will be doing my best at that because its what I enjoy. I prefer if you do too, However it is not mandatory. During session 0 we will go over all of this and things my Npcs should stay clear of. sometimes things happen. if something is done by me or a player. we will talk about it to make sure it doesnt happen. we are all adults and communication is important My expectations for players is to treat everyone including myself with the same respect they are given and to maintain general decorum and immersion at the virtual "table". Communication is the key to success, but it is also a necessity it group play to make sure that everyone has fun. I ask for full transparency in session zero of any lines or veils, possible triggers etc. At the end of the day I care more about you having fun than about me trying to make my homebrew setting gritty/ realistic/ dark etc.

How will character creation work

start at level 1 to whenever The campaign ends. could be level 20 or 10 depending on where the player decisions take us. A session 0 will provide time for choosing classes, races etc. I use Roll20 for the maps. I find discord works best for audio. I also own every book on dnd beyond so that is where character creation is done. i do also own quite a bit of books on roll 20 if you find that to be easier. a simple beyond20 extension shows your rolls in roll 20 so everything is right there in front of you all wotc material is accepted as well as homebrew races and classes. must need approval before. -For stats use a different version of standard array. 17 16 15 12 10 8. -Gain a first level feat (must make sense for race or your backstory to help round the character out. not just for power.) -Gain 1 uncommon item for your character. (must make sense for race or your backstory to help round the character out. not just for power. so it can be a family heirloom or something you found. but have it fit your character as these will grow in power with you as your character makes decisions.) I do have premade Character if people need. but prefer you make a character that you personally are connected to and that has a backstory you desire.
