About the adventure
A death god stirs on a lost continent, twisting reality and spawning an army of chaos. No one else knows it exists. No one else is coming. You are among the first to glimpse the truth—Nes’tor, a godborn terror of entropy and madness, has awakened in exile. His spawn creep into the world by ship and shadow, infiltrating civilizations from a forgotten shore. You’ve seen what others won’t believe. Now you’ve found a way to reach the continent itself. You are not explorers. You are not diplomats. You are the blade in the dark, the storm at sea, the fire in the swamp. This is a godhunt. And the world doesn’t know it needs saving yet. This game welcomes new players and experienced players. Everyone of all skill levels will find themselves challenged and rewarded for their efforts. Who doesn't love a good sandbox adventure? We will be starting at level 15. If you are a newer player, I can help you get started! Just let me know what you need, but know that this adventure is geared toward players with some experience. Some rules are as follows: 1. Be kind to each other as players. 2. No fighting/stealing from party members 3. Players will level up together based on the milestone system. No need to track xp. As long as a player attends most sessions, everyone will level up at the same time even if they've missed a few sessions. 4. I plan on players using DNDBeyond and Beyond20 extension. These tools are powerful and make playing fast and easy. DNDBeyond has options to allow me to share my purchases with players to give you more options. 5. There will be a dedicated discord server for this game. This keeps discussions organized into channels so that important things don't get buried. This game will be scheduled to run bi-weekly.
Game style
Theater of the Mind
“Theater of the Mind” uses little to no visuals for scene settings and combat. Instead, the narrative imagery comes from the Game Master’s descriptions and character action and movement comes from Players’ descriptions.

How to prepare
I plan to run this game on Foundry, so players will have access via a link I will provide. We will be using Discord for voice chat so it is required that players have a mic. Players must also have a way to create, view and modify their character sheet, though for this I recommend dndbeyond. If players have built a character on dndbeyond, it is highly recommended that they download the Beyond20 extension. Players do not need prior experience or knowledge of the rules, but it is recommended to have some knowledge and experience. -Build character on D&DBeyond -Install Beyond20 plugin. -Join campaign discord and have working mic
What I provide
We are playing online, so I will provide digital game components like maps, tokens, etc. If players wish, they can provide an image for me to use for their character portrait and character token. If a player doesn't provide this, I can provide one.
Gameplay details
The Devil and Real World Religion content warnings come from a player character who is from real life Mississippi and was pulled into the game by the Devil from the Bible. The Devil is that PC's warlock patron, so we interact with him often as an NPC. This has mostly comedic and satirical undertones. We will have a session zero that will go over everyone's expectations and desires for the campaign. We'll touch on what to expect as well as things to avoid. If for any reason a player needs to step away or remove themselves, we will be utilizing the safety measures of Open Door and X, N, & O Cards. Open Door is simply to empower the player to step away and rejoin (or leave if necessary) whenever they need to for any reason, no questions asked. X, N, & O Cards function as an indicators to me (the GM) when subject matter arises which causes discomfort to the point it disrupts your experience, you can utilized X, N, & O in the following ways: X: Place an X in the chat to let me know you are uncomfortable with the current content, often resulting in a change, rewind, or skip of the aforementioned content. N: Placing an N in the chat lets me know that you feel the content is heading towards an X card, often resulting in a change or a “fade to back”. O: An O in the chat is a check-in card, where I will stop and check with the entire group to ensure that everyone is comfortable continuing with the content.

How will character creation work
Characters should be created on Dndbeyond. I will have content sharing enabled, so you will have lots of options. Use the campaign link and create your character there or join with one you've already made. Characters should be level 15 and built using standard array or point buy for ability scores. HP should use the default setting of "fixed." All official content is ok. This includes UA, CR, and Custom Lineage from TCoE. Unofficial content is ok with DM Approval. Everyone can starts with all normal starting equipment or gold. Plus 5 "gear tokens." These can be spent in the following ways: 1 gear token - 400gp 1 gear token- uncommon item (magical or nonmagical) 1 gear token - pet/steed within reason 2 gear tokens - rare item (magical or non magical) 2 gear tokens - feat of your choice (with DM approval) 3 gear tokens - very rare item (magical or non magical) I can definitely help with character creation for anyone who needs it! Please send a character image to use for your token.
