[PBP] Legend of Wenstede, homebrew world. (Party at level 6)
Dungeons & Dragons 5e | Campaign
About the adventure
Create and play your hero, your way, and tell their story. Your fate is undecided, your future uncertain. Who knows where you will end up, how you will get there and what you will face along the way. Many of these decisions lie in the palm of your hand, much will be determined based on your choices... and the rolls of the dice of course! The world of Allarea, still recovering from the fallout of the Dragon and Mage wars, it a world divided still. The main land of Omnea is thriving and relatively well ordered, the mages control part of the region and free thinking races occupy much of the rest of the land in collaborative spirit of bounty. The other lands are harsher and bread harsher races and people, they fight to survive and conquer the lands, though some lands are unhabitable.. or so many of the Omneans think. Time for rebuilding and rebirth is now, the dragons have gone and the all powerful benefactory of the mages council is protecting all. Peace reigns.... Right? ... Peace? The quest will be run sandbox-style giving total freedom to explore the world as you wish. Face your fears, resolve the issues of your past, build on the backgrounds you make, find and kill monsters, save some princesses ... or depose the evil tyrants and become their overlords. Whatever you like. This campaign will be a Play-by-Post (PbP - asynchronous) format, hosted on a dedicated Discord server. This means that you can post at your leisure, no annoying scheduling issues and the game is compatible with most devices, including pc, tablets or phones. I consistently respond to posts within 24 hours, making 1-3 daily contributions, and I hope for a similar level of commitment from players. Any deviations from this schedule will be communicated in advance, and these expectations can be adjusted based on player preferences. D&D pbp
The story so far; The heroes have explored Omnea, uncovered the warring cults, chased the red wizard, won at the tavern fighting contests and confronted the Blight Bringer... now they are in the Port State of the Sea Elves looking for a pirate... I mean cargo ship. Will this bring them closer to uncovering the truths, being the heroes that unite Allera... join us and sway the outcome. Please note this is Play By Post (PbP) D&D Asynchronous Play By Post campaign by text over discord server. Play is ongoing, session times are for charging purposes.

How to prepare
The only preparation required will be to join the discord server and get to know each other a bit, create characters on DnD Beyond and link them into the server. There is no requirement for any particular device as Beyond is on a browser and Discord is an application, so just an internet enabled device will suffice.
What I provide
I am an excitable GM and ready to create a story and lead the adventure where you want to go. I will provide the hosted server access and link to resources on DnD Beyond, allowing access to most content. I maintain the bots, code and all the requirements to make the server function well and support the gameplay. Maps, characters, story, world, npc and even some monsters are made by myself, utilising map tools, AI Art (sorry artists) and my own creativity. You, the player, please bring your creativity, RP skills, willingness to use discord/avrae and, above all, patience and commitment to playing in the PBP style.
Gameplay details
To ensure the safety and comfort of all players, I employ the following measures: 1. Before the main game begins, I hold a session zero via discord to discuss concerns and establish boundaries. 2. I utilise a safety checklist to ensure that all players are aware of potential triggers and sensitive topics. 3. During the game, I run personal channels private to that player and the GM, allowing players to communicate their comfort levels or any other issues. This campaign will be conducted as Asynchronous Play by Post, posting via text as and when you have time. We will use Discord for all communications, DND Beyond for character sheets and resources and the Avrae bot for dice rolling and combat. I use as much description in my text as possible to make the game as immersive as possible, while keeping short enough to be able to read in short bursts, which is the way for PBP. Organised Discord channels, linked to your DnD Beyond character makes for swifter progress in the story and prevents stagnation.

How will character creation work
Characters will be discussed on the server during the "Session 0", which is essentially the time before you jump in. They will start at the level stated in the title, which changes as the party level up. We allow subclass and multiclass, if required. I have a modified dice roll system that allows for a better spread of stats. We can create them together or all be yourself, and backstory detail is up to the player.
