About the adventure
Welcome to Eberron! In the wake of the Last War, the nation of Droaam has carved out a place amidst the human-dominated continent of Khorvaire. Populated almost entirely by "monstrous" beings, the new kingdom is clawing for a foothold in this era, and both the imminent risks and potential rewards are plentiful. No humans, elves, or dwarves here -- you'll play as one of the goblins, gnolls, ogres, gargoyles, or other monsters housed by these crags. 💪 Establish your standing as an influential figure amongst those jockeying for power under a new regime. 👑 ⚔️ Fend off the threats of those who believe themselves more civilized compared to your heritage. 🗡️ 🔎 Delve into the secrets of the perilous factions across the world of Eberron. 🧭 🐺 Find allies and rivals aplenty in the dynamic fabric of a newly-formed society. 🐲 Whether you're a gnoll archer working amidst the mercenary companies, an inquisitive mystic loyal to the Daughters of Sora Kell, a lycanthrope hunter in search of a secure den and pack, or something else entirely, the rugged lands of Droaam have opportunity for you!

About me
I've been running games for twenty-odd years now and enjoy every minute of it! I run narrative-heavy, character-focused adventures in almost any setting. My games are safe, inclusive, intersectional, and tend toward homebrew storylines in dynamic worlds. I love taking players on an emotionally compelling journey that gives them a chance to affect the world their characters inhabit. I always enjoy having people contribute to an ongoing narrative as we build a story together.

Creating your character
Character concepts and party composition will be discussed on Discord prior to Session 0 as part of the preparation. The GM can assist with the character creation process as needed. Characters will begin at level 1 and use the point-buy method during creation. Players can either build their character in the Roll20 game or use the Beyond20 extension to use a D&DBeyond character sheet for gameplay. Permissible races for characters will include bugbear, goblin, half-orc, hobgoblin, kobold, lizardfolk, minotaur, orc, & tiefling, with other homebrew possibilities as needed.
** NEW JOINERS WELCOME ** A weekly campaign (currently at level 12) exploring the dangers around Droaam -- join our Discord and let's get going! DISCOUNTS AVAILABLE! Multiple Game Discount: Any player signed up for a non-discounted seat in three or more separate active campaigns with this GM will have each of those 3+ seats discounted by $5 on an ongoing basis. Recruitment Discount: If any player signed up for a non-discounted seat recruits a new player to join the campaign also at a non-discounted price, both players will have that seat discounted by $5 on an ongoing basis.
What to expect
Preparing for the session
Webcam and mic will be required and players are encouraged to begin familiarizing themselves with the rules of play prior to Session 0. The game will be fully online and physical dice will not be used. All players will need an active free Roll20 account to access the game and to create their character sheets there. Players will also need to provide some sort of character art for their character token on the battlemap.
What Jack G. brings to the table
Access to the Roll20 VTT, a D&DBeyond campaign entry, Eberron setting lore, and all the other ingredients of an immersive narrative will be provided. Digital resources like maps and tokens will be available for gameplay. I also offer a Discord text channel to facilitate group communications in addition to the video chat for game sessions!

Safety
How Jack G. creates a safe table
A Content & Consent Survey will be provided and must be completed before Session 0. Every game will have a break partway through and a debrief sequence to conclude. Players can expect a game with somewhat streamlined combat and plenty of social twists and turns. I utilize milestone experience at narratively-thematic moments for the players.
