Scurvy & Scallywags ⚓ Epic Pirate Fantasy ☠️ First game free!

Creating your character

You'll need a level 9 character. If you're interested in the game, we'll have a chat, I'll send through our lore document, and we'll create a character who fits into our world in a really cool way! You'll have full access to pretty much every sourcebook on D&DBeyond to pull species/classes/abilities from, and I'll walk you through everything step by step!

Preparing for the session

1. Have a D&D Beyond account (https://www.dndbeyond.com/create-account) 2. Have a working microphone (and preferably a webcam) That's it! You are welcome to use physical or digital dice 🎲

Homebrew rules

❥ The Rule of Cool If something would be cool but breaks a rule, we'll generally break the rule. I love it when players get creative! ❥ Perfect crits Instead of the usual doubling of the dice rule, I much prefer: on a crit, roll damage as normal, BUT THEN add your maximum possible dice total to the damage. It makes every crit EPIC! ❥ Crits on Initiative. A crit 20 on initiative will give you advantage on your first D20 roll of combat. A crit fail will grant disadvantage. Either way, it tends to become a really cool character moment! ❥ Nomnomnom. Consumables and most item interactions may be completed with a bonus action, instead of requiring a full action. Healing potions used with a full action heal maximum hitpoints. ❥ Gritty Realism for Rests Not always true about our world, but in the very scary archipelago where the party now travels, long rests require a week, and short rests need 8 hours. It leads to some nail-biting, adrenaline-pumping, cinematic combats! ❥ Custom setting. Since we’re playing in a world of our collective creation, not everything will match up with established D&D lore, or you might find things a bit mix-and-match. I'll fill you in on the important things in the initial lore dump, and everything else will be found along the way!
