About the adventure
🐵 Live game open to all experience levels. Beginners welcome! 🐵 Journey into the Nine Hells to save the city, and the world! 🐵 Player creativity encouraged! 🐵 Inclusive table open to all! 🐵 Become part of an active and welcoming Discord community! Baldur's Gate is a city of tolerance and acceptance, but something is lurking beneath the surface. An evil cult is operating within the city, causing trouble and threatening the pace. And to make matters worse, a tragedy has happened in the nearby city of Elturel and a refugee crisis is growing. Stuck in the middle of it? You. Can you navigate the city streets, the seedy underbelly of the city, and even hell itself to survive? Or will you be just another victim?

About me
Hi! I'm Ellis. I've been playing D&D 5th Edition since 2016 as both a player and a DM. I've spent the last few years running play-by-post and voice games over Discord and now I want to share that experience with you. My wife (https://startplaying.games/gm/meganhardy) and I offer a welcoming community where we run player-friendly, inclusive games for all players of any experience level, The RPG Den and Menagerie: https://discord.gg/meganandthemonkey These games are all available to run either as voice games or regularly scheduled text-based/PbP games for those who cannot process or prefer not to use audio. New games are being added regularly so there is always something for everyone in this growing community. Please message me with any questions or game requests.

Creating your character
Characters are created with a 2014 rules using a modified standard array: 17 16 15 13 11 9. You will also get a free feat at level 1. All I ask is two things: 1. Clear any homebrew with me before you commit to it. 2. No evil characters. If anyone has any questions about building characters, I can always be reached through either SPG or Discord.
All characters will use a modified standard array for stats and begin with a free feat. The modified array is : 17, 16, 15, 13, 11, 9

What Ellis (cuddlemonkey) brings to the table
I will have a D&D Beyond campaign link for character building. I will also send you an invitation to the Roll20 game and the Discord server.
