Creating your character
All characters are made prior to the game start using dndbeyond.com. You will have access to all my materials, along with any materials other players may already have, through my Master Tier subscription which allows content sharing of all purchased materials. Should you have any questions, I am available, and happy to help you through the process. Beginner to expert, everyone is welcome.
All experience levels are welcome, this is a longer term adventure that will eventually reach Level 20. We are using the 2024 ruleset. You may also use 2014 subclasses that are not updated in the new rules. One of the nice things about 2024 rules is an upgrade for martial characters with Weapon Mastery. Battleaxes can CLEAVE multiple opponents in one attack, and clubs can SLOW your opponents making it harder for them to run away. Or maybe you can TOPPLE your opponent on the floor with a Maul. Rogues can VEX their opponents with a short sword, giving them advantage on their next attack. If you need help creating your character, just ask. As the DM I am happy to help, and your fellow players are often happy to help craft your character as well. Premade characters will be available as well if you prefer. You may fine tune the premades to suit your style as well.
