Exandria: Ascension to Redemption | Level 14-20 Campaign

How to prepare

To ensure that everyone has the best experience possible, here are a few simple requirements for joining our games: -Computing Device: Please use a computer (laptops or desktops) as Foundry VTT, our virtual tabletop platform, does not currently support mobile devices like tablets or phones.

This will help in maintaining continuous gameplay without interruptions. -Web Browser: Access our game sessions through any modern web browser installed on your computer. This is where you'll log into Foundry VTT to join the fun. -DnDBeyond Account: Create a free account on DnDBeyond if you don’t already have one. This will give you access to necessary game materials and allow for seamless integration of D&D resources. Discord for Communication: -Discord Account: A free Discord account will be needed to communicate during our sessions. You can sign up easily if you haven't yet. -Microphone: Good audio is key for interaction, so please have a microphone ready. This could be through your phone if you choose to use the Discord mobile app, or via a built-in or external microphone on your computer. By preparing these elements, you'll be set to dive into our game world without a hitch. I’m looking forward to seeing you in Eberron!

Relaxed and Engaging Gameplay: At the heart of every session is the goal of fun.

Gameplay details

Commitment to a Safe and Enjoyable Experience -Respectful Session Timing: All sessions are designed to be concise, never exceeding 3 hours, unless there's unanimous agreement to extend. Each session includes a 15-minute break to ensure comfort and focus. - Pre-Game Preparation with Session 0: Before diving into our adventures, a complimentary Session 0 is provided. This is a crucial time to align on player expectations, establish boundaries, and assist with character creation. This session ensures everyone starts on the same page and feels prepared and confident. For those who prefer privacy when discussing boundaries or any concerns, I'm available for direct messages on Discord. - Ongoing Communication: I believe in the power of feedback to create the best gaming experience. After each session, I reach out to every player individually via Discord to gather insights and ensure satisfaction with the campaign's progression. - Handling Boundaries with Care: We treat each other with respect, and any breach of established boundaries is taken seriously. Minor issues may result in a brief timeout for reflection, while significant or repeated breaches might lead to a group discussion regarding potential removal from the campaign. Your comfort and safety are my top priorities. - Zero Tolerance for Discrimination: While our adventures explore complex themes within Exandria, including societal injustices, there is absolutely no tolerance for out-of-character discrimination or hate speech. This includes racism, homophobia, xenophobia, and any form of sexual violence. Breaching these principles leads to immediate removal from the session and potentially the campaign, depending on the severity of the offense. - Join Us for a Respectful and Thrilling Adventure: Together, we'll navigate the rich and intricate world of Exandria, ensuring a memorable and respectful experience for all adventurers.

How will character creation work

Characters must be player-made in DnDBeyond and starting at level 14 for this adventure. If you are joining with an existing level 14 character, you do not need to reroll your stats. Otherwise, if creating a brand new character for this adventure, you can use the "(4d6, drop the lowest) x 7, drop the lowest" or "Standard Array" for stat generation. Be prepared for the possibility that your character may die. Content to enable during character creation: - Homebrew Content - Critical Role Content
