About the adventure
Something evil is trapping the souls of the dead and draining life from all who have been raised from death by magic. This worldwide “death curse” not only prevents the raising of the dead but also causes creatures that were previously raised from the dead to wither and die. The source of this death curse lies in a trap-riddled tomb hidden beneath a lost city in the depths of a vast jungle. Tomb of Annihilation is a Dungeons & Dragons adventure that takes place on the peninsula of Chult in the Forgotten Realms. Chult is a tropical wilderness composed mostly of jungles, plateaus, impassable mountains, and belching volcanoes.

About me
Hail and well met, I hope your perusing this assortment of splendid artisans has not left you dissatisfied. My name is Ethan or Golden and I have been playing Dungeons and Dragons for 10 years and have been a Dungeon Master for 8 of them! I have written my own worlds and crafted my own stories but have also fallen absolutely smitten for The Forgotten Realms. I love and respect all kinds of people and promote kindness toward each other as players at my table. I've hosted groups as large as 8 at a time, and even DMed tournaments for 24 people split into several groups, so no amount of players is too large.

Ethan is hands down one of the best DMs I've had the privilege of playing with. The story he's crafted has been incredibly compelling with enough levity to keep the mood from turning too bleak. Battles are tough, and the victories all the sweeter for it. He encourages a great deal of roleplay I cannot recommend him enough for players both old and new.
Oh my gosh, this DMs ability to tie in character backstories into the module is phenomenal and Ethan makes a point to make sure everyone is included. If the party separates no one is forgotten. Everyone gets their moment and Ethan managed to pull together an amazing group for this game that this is hands down the highlight of my week. I hope to join next campaigns he has coming up!

There will be a session 0 for character creation in which stats will be rolled. I am rather open as to what kind of character players are allowed to make, as long as it fits into the world well, and fits into the team well.
