About the adventure
The village of Palma Flora is known for its vibrant green foliage, its competitive shark-hunting tournaments, and a sweet cocktail that shares the village’s name. Lurking in the Sharkfeather Abyss, an ocean trench just west of the village, is a small clan of some dozen sahuagin that has grown weary of the shark hunters of Palma Flora. Year after year, the sea devils have attacked the shark hunters in an effort to spoil the tournaments, but their small numbers have seen them consistently defeated by the hunters and the village’s hired mercenaries. However, things have recently changed. This campaign will start with the Critical role adventure "Tide of Retribution" a level 1-3 adventure, with potential to continue playing for the full breadth of a campaign. This game is intended for new players! While you do not have to be familiar with critical role or their adventures, actualplay fans are more than welcome!

About me
Hey, I'm Kai (Doc)! I have been DM'ing for about two years now and I kind of jumped in head first; the first session I ever ran was also my first game TTRPG session ever! But hey that group is still going almost two years strong and according to them, I handled it pretty well! I tend towards Horror-Light campaigns; exploring dark themes, a bit of gore, and intrigue with High power players in a High fantasy setting. I do tend to run with a few player-friendly house rules, and I try not to say no, after all this is a cooperative experience. I am a DM devoted to the comfort of my players first and foremost; comfort in roleplaying, communication, and creativity. Ultimately, I DM because I love to create alongside other open-minded individuals; as such, I typically run in a homebrew world of mine because it allows for more flexibility and a more consistent experience for my players. I hope we all have plenty of chances to have a good time roleplaying some silly fantasy games together <3.

Creating your character
character creation can be done together during our free session 0, otherwise I am always available for questions.
What to expect
Preparing for the session
A laptop or tablet with a solid internet connection should suffice, i tend to run on discord so VC can be done with little more than a phone :)
What DocHoliday brings to the table
I have most sourcebooks on dnd beyond so you all can get by with nothing more than a free account; additionally, I use owlbear rodeo for maps and mood so all you will need is a stable internet connection.

How DocHoliday creates a safe table
Players can expect a lot of freedom, I use a couple of house rules involving character creation, all of which can be found under the #laws channel in our server. Additionally, Lines and veils are important and will be established during session zero so that old and new players alike can ease into this hectic world of magic and mayhem.
