About the adventure
Legends of Aleria: A High-Power Fantasy Saga In the mythical kingdom of Aleria, legends walk among us. Amidst a world besieged by demons, Aleria stands as the last sanctuary for the humanoid races. Protected for centuries by a mystical artifact, this solitary island once held the dark forces at bay. But 150 years ago, catastrophe struck. The demons shattered the northern defenses, conquering the kingdom’s top peninsula in a relentless onslaught. Since then, countless epic battles and devastating wars have raged, pushing the survivors to the very brink. The Bastion, once a colossal wall and the final barrier against the encroaching darkness, has fallen. Now under demon control, it stands as a haunting symbol of defeat a demon city that looms ominously over the land. From this malevolent stronghold, the demonic forces consolidate their power, threatening to extinguish what remains of the human realm. Your destiny is uncertain. A mysterious letter, (https://youtu.be/SADDQyqJbdM) urgent and cryptic, has summoned you to the capital of Aleria. The reasons for your summons? Unknown. But one thing is clear: the path you choose could alter the fate of Aleria forever.

About me
Hey, I’m Gaige. I run paid D&D 5e games that feel alive, interesting and genuinely reactive to what players do. I’ve been DMing for about 6 years and I run a mix of long term campaigns and oneshots for people who want a solid table and a grand adventure to get stuck into, with each session recapped into a video for you to have for your reference and reflection years down the line. My main strengths are reactive roleplay and consistency. I can respond to unexpected choices without the session grinding to a halt while I search through my notes or the books, and I keep the story coherent over time so it doesn’t slowly fill up with plot holes. I build NPCs, challenges and story with clear goals and the overarching narrative in mind, but I’m not here to force the outcomes I'm expecting, mainly because let's be honest its D&D and never works the way you expect, if you talk your way into something, flip an NPC, or solve a problem in a way I didn’t plan, then I can roll with it. I aim to be reliable with scheduling on my side, I keep cancellations low and in advance as much as possible. if a session doesn’t happen it’s usually because players can’t make it, not because I’ve made last minute plans.

Creating your character
We will spend time creating your legend in the world of Aleria between session 0 and session 1. You are open to play pretty much anything as long as you are sensible and keep within the rules of this is a humanoid vs demons campaign, and you are on the side of the humanoids.
You might find yourself asking "why is this only $7 per session" and you would be right to think that as everything else on StartPlaying is usually much higher, well this was my first Paid group, initially a proof of concept, and I do not raise prices once the price is locked in, hence the low price! I will provide you as the player all the context you need for the adventure as it stands. Currently (as of the 14th/02/26), the party are 3 sessions into chapter 3 which is a brilliant palace for new players to join, the demonic forces have made their move, and the party dealt with the most immediate threats in chapter 2 where the kingdom began its collapse, moving their attention inwards to the Capital and Kingdom, which has been taken over by the old Treasurer and leader of the council, Councilman Farreach, a longstanding enemy of the party, to the people of the kingdom all seems well, food is flowing, jobs are opening. But the party know the real truth, the deals Farreach has made with the demons, bartering away thousands of lives in return for 'safety', the evil schemes he plots in the background with his new elite taskforce, the Crownguard, and their strange source of magical power. This chapter focuses on espionage, plots, schemes and playing vigilante in the capital as you rescue friends, allies and key information, all in the aim to reclaim the kingdom for the Queen from the grasp of Farreach. We play using the 2024 rules which I have the modules for on FoundryVTT and on D&D Beyond for creating your character. The group is level 14 and consists of a: Paladin 12 Sorcerer 2 Bard 13 Fighter 1 Cleric 10 druid 4 Ranger 10 Rogue 4 We have dabbled in cameras a bit and usually two of us have them on, your welcome to join us or not! We also audio record our sessions for recap purposes, each session comes with a Scrybe recap video and notes. After joining I ask that all new players listen in for a session to see if they are set on joining, after this, if you still want to jump in, we will do a session 0, at a time that suits us both, and then spend some time together creating your characters backstory, what they did during the war and what they have been doing since the collapse of the kingdom, I will be introducing your character in a way that feels natural to the story as much as I can, and will work together to integrate you into the story an give YOU the knowledge and context even if your character does not have it all. Looking forward to sharing this adventure with you!
What to expect
Preparing for the session
All you need to do is attend session 0 and complete everything we talk about during that. A good quality microphone is essential for the fun of the group, no one can have fun if we have consistent background noise or we cant tell what your saying :) A Camera is encouraged but not needed. Come up with an idea for your class you would like to play and brainstorm your Legend based on the background of the world found in the discord.
What Gaige brings to the table
I bring world maps, combat encounters, custom tokens, music, handouts, foundryVTT, and can provide character artwork.

How Gaige creates a safe table
In session 0 we will hold a discussion about everything you need to know for becoming a Legend in Aleria, I will send over the Consent checklist if you have not completed it before session 0, and we will have a brief intro to foundryVTT touch on how you create your characters and any other questions.
