About the adventure

*** Session 0 *** The first session of this campaign will be a free session 0. During the session 0 we will: discuss game style/tone and safety tools, work through an technology issues, and talk character creation. This game has horror themes, so safety tools are particularly relevant. *** The Game *** From the minds of the DUNGEON DUDES, Monty Martin & Kelly McLaughlin, and based on their actual play, Dungeons of Drakkenheim offers a unique dark fantasy world to explore. According to the game listing, "Fifteen years ago, Drakkenheim was destroyed by an eldritch storm of falling stars. Now, the city is a dismal urban wasteland contaminated by otherworldly magic and haunted by hideous monsters. Fantastic wealth, lost knowledge, and powerful artefacts lie ready for the taking by adventurers brave or foolish enough to venture into the ruins!" If you're up for the challenge, or just a fan of the Dungeon Dudes, this is the game for you!

About me

Greetings Adventurers! My name is Zac. I'm an audiobook narrator (https://zacnarrates.com/) as well as a professional GM. (So, yes, expect lots of silly voice acting!) I played D&D 3.5 back in high school and then got back into D&D in 2017 after being inspired by Critical Role. Since then I've logged thousands of hours behind the GM screen running games for friends, family, local games stores, and professional games online. I love integrating character backstories into my games, collaborating on worldbuilding, and going off the rails! So, if you're looking for a group that's as much about role play as it is about dungeon crawling, this is the place for you.

Character creation

Creating your character

I allow any officially published material into my games. For UA or homebrew, please talk to me first and I'll make a decision on a case-by-case basis. For character attributes, please use either the standard array or 27 point buy. Starting equipment is either standard as listed in the PHB or you can take the average gold amount (ie, fighter gets 5d4 x 10 = 5 x 2.5 x 10 = 125 GP). If you submit a character backstory to me you can start with a +1 item (either weapon, armor, or shield).

What to expect

Preparing for the session

Please have the following prepared for Session 0: - a Roll20 account - join my "D&D with Zac" discord server - a mic - a webcam is encouraged but optional For Session 1 (and following) players should have a character ready, as well as: - a submitted "Consent in Gaming" form. - a character backstory. * Note: There will be links for most of this in your player dashboard after joining the campaign. If you don't see them, or have issues with the links, please feel free to message me.

What Zac brings to the table

Safety

How Zac creates a safe table

My goals is always to create a fun, immersive experience where you feel grounded in the moment. Whether you're relaxing in a tavern as your bard plays to the crowd, camped on a freezing mountain top, or sneaking into a dragon's lair, the magic of D&D comes in the moments when you're in tune with your character. That's when it's real! On a more practical level, I try to encourage roleplaying, while acknowledging that it can be hard. I also include exploration and combat in most sessions (because it's fun)!
