Beginner game of Strixhaven magic Uni (1ST SESSION HALF PRICE)

Dungeons & Dragons 5e | Campaign

About the adventure

Do you want learn magic and live your Harry Potter style dream in a D n D game....well! Learn magic at Strixhaven! Attend classes, write exams (with dice!), build lasting friendships, play exciting games in the game, and participate in extra-curricular activities too! Strixhaven is an adventure for those who enjoy exploration, relationship building, and engaging in diplomacy/duplicity. Adventures happen between classes, so bring a sword and spell too! Choose from 5 colleges, cast spells, solve puzzles, and uncover enchanting secrets. Embark on a mystical journey to discover ancient artifacts and hidden treasures. DO YOU DARE! The Strixhaven, a curriculum of chaos takes adventurers from there first year of magic school all the way to their final fourth of a wizard graduation and is designed for characters of levels 1–10. A great game for beginners, more experienced players and any one who really loves the idea of being a wizard (though your not limited to only playing the wizard class, all classes are open) . I will be helping guide and educate you on D n D when needed. Its a heavy RP game with lots of chance for character development and acting out your heroes, there’s still combat of course but it’s not a dungeon crawl. If you like the Critical Role style of play this is for you. I like to help my groups make friendships with each other so we can all be silly and have some fun. Hate Tech or Socially Anxious! I don’t like tech either so I’ve tried use the easiest ones available and that are free. Feeling anxious of meeting new people? You will be able chat to me before hand so you will know me before the game and I make sure all the groups are integrating and if you have a shy day sometimes that’s cool. (if you don’t understand any of the D n D words here don’t worry I will explain it)

Recruiting notes

We currently have a level 6 Dwarf barbarian, Tiefling fighter, Owling sorcerer and Air gensia storm cleric.

Having a wonderful time with Martin so far. I had only played DnD once almost a decade ago, and his beginner's campaign has been a great reintroduction to the game. Before the campaign even began, Martin shared his resources with the group and walked us through character creation, which resulted in a character that I have completely fallen in love with.

I was a beginner player and Martin was great at getting everyone started, while still making time for some fun. Would recommend Martin for anyone getting started, as well as further on for higher level gameplay, for anyone keen on a solid DM who balances RP and combat depending on what the player want.

Martin has been a great DM in this Strixhaven game I joined. Incredibly helpful and engaging. I joined an already in-process game and he was so helpful in getting up to speed and helping me learn the mechanics of the campaign.

Martin has been my dm for a few years now, and I can genuinely say I still love and look forward to every session I play with them. I started with him as a complete beginner and he was very patient, helpful and understanding both in game and out when building characters or just learning 'how to dnd'! Martin always encourages feedback and communication with players and the dm and always makes sure you are comfortable and happy as you can be whilst being able to fall into the brilliant world and story lines that he creates. 100% would recommend 👍👍

Additional details

How to prepare

I use Session Zero to address any safety concerns the game might entail, and I am always open to being messaged privately if further concerns arise.( if joining after this, all the safety notes will be posted in the discord room) I prefer to run a tight ship and keep the story moving, but the most important thing to me is that all my players are having fun. I will provide a Discord chat room for the game to be played and also a text chat room so you can talk to me or the rest of the party when you wish to. You will need the free link for Discord I send you and I use Owl Bear which you just need click to access for maps. The only registering is a free D n D beyond account to make your character (takes about 2 mins to do) Equipment needed. A computer or tablet, computer will make it easier. webcam(adds more fun but you don’t have to use) and a mic. Thinking about the race and class you like your character be would a great help pre game but not necessary. (e.g an elf wizard)

What I provide

Custom maps and illustrations of NPCS, Monsters and Locations. Shared D n D beyond character resources. Discord chat room. 3 bad NPCS voices.

Your first session is half price . If you join for session 0 we will make the characters as a group and if joining after I will spend some time with you before the game separately making your character. You will start at level 1 (or higher depending when you join the adventure) and make your character in DND Beyond, point buy/standard array, and will I will give you a link to join my campaign. No home brew is allowed, and you’re free to use any of my shared resources on D n D Beyond to make your character and I can help guide you in the make.
