About me
I fell in love with dungeons and dragons since 2020, when my friend introduced a group of us to play online during lockdown. It was a beginning story for new players - Lost Mine of Phandelver. We only played one session, but that was enough to get me hooked. While I grasped any chance I could to play more games, I realised that I wanted to create even more. I wanted to bring the stories to life. And, have players join in an adventure they can enjoy and come back wanting more. So, with all the stories I've heard from cinema, books and role-playing adventures like Critical Role and Dimension 20; I have stories that I want to share and I can't wait for you to join!

Creating your character
The Characters will start at Level 3. Subclasses are compeletely optional - we can discuss during Session 0 on viability of characters. Furthermore, the Backstories and Backgrounds that may play a part within the adventure. I want you all to have fun, so please bring your own twist to the game. Your cooperation will make the game enjoyable for me and the other players.
We play on Sundays! Happy to teach new players!
What to expect
Preparing for the session
Please have a microphone for the sessions. Webcam is optional. Have a good understanding of the Dungeons and Dragons rules beforehand. But don't worry, rules will not be enforced harshly. There will be time and open discussion about rules and options. Characters will be discussed during Session 0. Then, the subclass can be ready before the first session. Then, before each session, we can pick up from the last session, with a recap.
What Andre Jooste brings to the table
I have my own dice I can use. Or, we can use the dice generator on Roll20. You are welcome to create your own characters designs. Or, I can have them personally illustrated for a special touch. Maps will be used for the session to make encounters easier to visualise. Roleplaying will be mostly the theatre of the mind. Maps optional.
