About the adventure
* You are heroes freshly arriving in a prison cave system in need of help. * Chapter one is for beginners or veteran starting lvl 1 or 3 * Compelling intrigues and many social interactions await you * Tough negociations or epic battles will occur according to your actions! Welcome to the Underkingdom! For a reason only you know, you have been banished from the Empire of the Everlasting Jewels. Was it because you didn't fit the society standards? Was it because you didn't have the proper parentage? Was it because you crossed the wrong noble one too many times? Or maybe none of the above, maybe you wanted to come into the Underkingdom? The stories do say that every monster the world could conceive was cast down into the ancient portals by the first Emperor and his army. But were they all monsters? Whatever the reason, you have come to the Underkingdom. Cold, hungry and exhausted, you were rescued by the people that now call the large cave world you arrived in home. They fed you, asked you for a few weeks of work in exchange and then set you free, no questions asked. What will you do now in this beautiful, exotic yet savage world?

About me
Hello and welcome, I am an experienced DM with over 30 years in Role playing games. I started playing with my family as a very young kid and was hooked ever since. I have made stories for various RPG types like DnD from second edition up to 5e, Stormbringer, Shadowrun, Warhammer, Midnight, Call of Cthulhu, Star Wars, Legend of the five rings, 7th Sea, Lord of the rings. I started Dming online in 2019. I enjoy making worlds and stories of high fantasy with a dash of dark horror peppered with good humor. I paint Npcs with motives and stories that players can come to befriend, love, fight or hate. As the campaigns are centered around the players, the story will track the events that brings them to legends of their world. My ultimate fun is for the players to live memorable events and stories be it from a mundane or an epic situation. I welcome beginners and veterans and I do not discriminate on any base: come as you are. All my campaigns will start with a session zero to talk about the game setting (the world you would be playing in) and a step by step help to make your characters. I also review with the players a consent list to set the proper levels regarding boundaries (social, violence, etc.) for a safe RPG experience. Currently I propose settings in the Dnd 5e Campaigns. I’m bringing to the game Homebrew worlds with unique maps and battle maps full of characters with their own motives and agenda as well as personal versions of classic monsters. Trivias: I also Dm in french. I use safety tools: initial safety form in session 0, X cards, pre and post game experience sharing. For Online Dming I use Foundry VTT. I currently use some AI for my illustrations but I'm working my way toward a zero AI illustration for my entire world and products.

Creating your character
Character creation You are more than welcome to send me your character ideas via discord or direct message here so we can check them together. For DnD 5e, any book content is ok with me. If you have a very specific unusual plan, message me about it beforehand. Stats I will explain the creation options in session 0 but know that you will have a choice between pointbuy or several rolling options. If you want to go for stat rolls, this will happen in session 0. As is customary, no stats rolls on the side. Campaign level for Chapter 1: lvl 1 to 5 Depending on the veterancy of the players, the team will start lvl 1 with a quick run to lvl 3 as a beginner's introduction to the game or directly lvl3 if all players prefer it (it does not shorten the campaign). Leveling is a mix of milestone (80%) and experience gain (20%). Character sheets The character sheets can be made in Dnd Beyond and imported into Foundry or directly in Foundry. Maps will be available in Foundry and handouts will be in Foundry.
What to expect
Preparing for the session
To play you will need : - a mic - a discord account (- https://discord.com/) - an internet connexion - a computer setup that can work with Foundry requirement (https://foundryvtt.com/article/requirements/) - Optionals: a webcam, dndbeyond account (www.dndbeyond.com) To play we'll use discord for voice chat. I recommend using cameras so we can see one another but it is not mandatory. I have a discord server (link will be given in session 0) For Foundry you will need a free account to The Forge. I will provide the link as well. YOU DON'T NEED TO KNOW THE RULES OF THE GAME :)
What Truthfool brings to the table
I'm bringing custom maps, npcs, stories and worlds. I own almost the entire Dnd Beyond collection for 5e in digital form and can share it to the party. I "do" voices for my npcs with no shame and without intent to harm or make fun of anybody. If it is disturbing, just tell me so. My games have a very sandbox tendancy. I have a headcanon of the story and there is a "normal" plot and scene flow to all my campaigns but I usually prefer to follow where the players go even if it may derail far away from the original gameplan. Rules I tend to use rules as intended over rules as written when it breaks the game engine but not if it makes it fun for the table. I will disclaim as much as possible when I don't follow rules as written in advance to you. Especially if it has mechanical effects to the player gameplans and so. I don't fudge rolls. I hide rolls from the players to keep a little tension about what the creatures can do however. In some settings, some spells will not be available due to lore reasons. I will of course tell you as much and yes you can still cast fireballs :) Maps I don't use maps for every step of the game, usually you will have a regional map and city maps when needed. Some places will have detailed combat type maps even if it's not expected to be a fighting place to give a better understanding of your surroundings. But not every shop has a map (yes I have favorite npcs and make homes for them). I use ambiance images when there is no specific map. Music I've had mixed results with music backgrounds over the years; I'm not using music in my default setting but I have music playlists that I could use if it is a wish at the table.

How Truthfool creates a safe table
Session 0 will go over the RPG consent list and discuss the line and veils for the games ahead. I will make a personnal file for the game that will be available on demand to the players. We will go over both table rules and game rules for the major topics and any topic players would want to clear. Major topics include: Exception to rules and adjucation of rules, party TPK, PvP level. The X cards will be included in the Foundry game (digital) and I will explain how to use them. I will be available before and after the sessions to discuss the games. I always propose a post game discussion/analysis both about the emotional level of the party and for feedback. Special note: some of the art you willl see is AI generated (Nightcafe) as I don't have the funds to only use humans for everything. I'm hoping to replace most to all of it when I have the means to.
