About the adventure
🌌 Embark on an Epic Adventure with the Doomed Forgotten Realms ⚔️ Play as High-Level Heroes (6th-20+ Level) 🧙♂️ Collaborate with Legendary Archmages 🐉 Elements of Vecna Eve of Ruin and a mixture of other adventures 💀 Confront the Lich-God Vecna 🌶️ Spicy roleplay allowed! The heroes have lost. The Sword Coast lies shattered, it's once-proud cities now twisted monuments to an unspeakable evil. A dark lord--whose epithets are only whispered in fear--has claimed dominion over all. Demons prowl the Underdark, Icewind Dale is in eternal winter, and the Giants have claimed their own dominions. In the skies, the Tiamat's Soaring Citadel casts it's draconic shadow, while the fallen angel Zariel rules Baldur's Gate with an iron fist. But in this age of darkness a band of unlikely heroes emerges. Outcasts, rogues, and desperate souls band together, daring to resist the tyranny that engulfs their world. Armed with forbidden knowledge and ancient artifacts they embark on a perilous quest to overthrow the dark lord and reclaim their world, and fight for countless others. Will you join the resistance? Can you navigate the treacherous alliances and eldritch horrors that await? Your choices will shape the fate of a world teetering on the brink of oblivion. ============== This play-by-post D&D 5E campaign will be played asynchronously on Discord. No prior experience with Dungeons & Dragons 5E or play-by-post games is required. The game will utilize Discord, D&D Beyond, and Owlbear Rodeo. This is to be a faster-paced game (multiple posts a day). The GM (Enigma) has experience running D&D 5E and freeform play-by-post games. Known for crafting detailed and immersive responses, the GM's style ensures a rich and engaging game experience. He tends to write long posts at least once a day, with smaller posts in between. 🔷 Art by JacLac, from SPG Discord 🔷 Discord: https://discord.gg/S5nm5NTA6V

Proficiencies
Players say this GM is great at:
Inclusive
Creativity
Storytelling
A great choice if your interested in play by post games. I am currently in multiple of their games and have not been disappointed in any of them. They have been willing to listen to my ramblings for character ideas and work with me to figure out how to implement my ramblings into the game.
I had never done a play by post game before, so I was nervous when I first started. Dreams and Eni made it so as soon as I started, I was hooked. Incredible when it comes to working on characters and weaving their story into the game, making combat interesting with the different format, as well as making each NPC feel alive and interesting. A fantastic writer who allows for so much interaction and the chance to allow people to have creative solutions to the game, while allowing everyone a chance to shine. If you are nervous about joining a play by post game, this is the one you should join. Incredible writing, interactions, and attention to detail. I eagerly await each post, ready for more.

What to expect
Preparing for the session
This is an asynchronous play-by-post game played by Discord with the Avrae bot. This means that posts will be made throughout the week; it's to the pace of the group. All playing will be done by text, making things accessible for those who aren't able to use voice. I will update at least daily. You will get to experience the story and the roleplay, while also learning about--or getting more experience with--play-by-post format and Avrae. You do not need to know Avrae, or any of the other tools. I can teach you. As long as I have access to your character sheet, you can roll using Avrae, Roll20, D&D Beyond, the in-Discord dice bot, or your own dice. ✅ Download Discord: https://discord.com/ ✅ Join D&D Beyond: https://www.dndbeyond.com/ ✅ Link your D&D Beyond account to Discord: https://www.dndbeyond.com/account ✅ Optional: Have a Roll20 account to access the Roll20 I use for maps. Once you sign up, message me. I will link you to the Discord (you can also find it below). From there, we can get you prepared. The game itself will start once everyone is ready (you will not be charged until we begin). This game uses its own discord. Find the link below - ⚔️ Discord Link: https://discord.gg/S5nm5NTA6V
