About the adventure
Nestled on the coast is a sleepy fishing village on the precipice of destruction. Smugglers guide their ships to hidden coves, willing to slit the throat of anyone foolhardy enough to cross their path. Cruel creatures gather beneath the waves, plotting to sweep away coastal cities. The cult of a forbidden god extends its reach outward from a decaying port, hungry for fresh victims and willing recruits. While this small town slumbers, the evils that seek to plunder it grow stronger. Heroes must arise to keep the waves safe! 🏴☠️ Be a swashbuckling sailor, pirate, landlubber or captain! 🥷🏽 Track down a nefarious cult 🐸 Make friends with competing factions or fight on your own HOW IS THIS GHOSTS OF SALTMARSH BETTER? Ajax DM has woven a story throughout with twists and turns, and side quests which enrich the story. WHAT PLAYERS SAID ABOUT AJAX DM's GHOSTS OF SALTMARSH "There were challenging fights in interesting locales and the opportunity to roleplay with a strange cast of characters. Allison was a wonderful DM and perfectly adapted to the chaos we brought with each session." - Josh "There were sea voyages, dungeon crawls, diplomacy missions, mysteries, sea battles and more, as well as some time for character interactions. Allison did a great job in weaving these strands together into a compelling and fun adventure. I had a blast (an eldritch blast)." - Mick "This is one of the classic campaigns of D&D. It not only has brutal fights it has complex role play interactions. I even met some really great people who I love playing with. It raised the bar very high for any I may experience for the future." - Marcelo ABOUT THE GAME Weekly 3-hour sessions hosted on Roll20. Audio on Discord. Original D&D 5e rules.

How will character creation work
Characters will enter at the same level as the rest of the party. Launch Roll20 game. To make a character, roll for stats in chat (4d6 drop the lowest * 6). You may opt for Standard Array if you dislike your rolls. If you join after the group's Session 0, you can build your character in Roll20 (+ D&D Beyond if desired) using the Charactermancer, before the game. Please allow at least a day for the DM to review your character before the game. Include at least 2 paragraphs of background story with at least one named person in their story. Characters should get along with others. There are no evil characters, "neutral" characters that are veiled evil characters, no emo loners who don't trust others. Fill in physical description and personality traits, ideals, bonds and flaws. Please do not choose the "do not trust others" trait. No evil characters. If using D&D Beyond character sheet, you still need to roll for and use ability score rolls from Roll20 chat.
