How to prepare

All you need is discord and a microphone! Ensuring you have a D&D Beyond and Roll20 account will be helpful too, but this can be sorted later if not!

What I provide

I bring with me an array of Dungeons and Dragons content on D&D Beyond. This site is a free to use character creation site, and as long as I own the books, you have access to them too due to my subscription! This way, you can explore lots more options and really make a character that fits with you. Additionally, as I have a subscription to the Roll20 VTT, I can use fancier maps and ambient music for the games. Oftentimes, I make my own NPC art to allow players to better visualise the characters they meet, and tend to create my virtual maps too. I'll also be gradually using my own music too, as I am a music producer. I also create organised discord servers, which we will be used for voice, and to just generally have a space to chat and share things between sessions. While I tend to stick to most of the D&D rules, I'm often times a 'rule-of-cool' DM, meaning that I bend the rules sometimes to allow you to pull off your crazy ideas that are fun for everyone

Gameplay details

I use my Session 0s (A meeting to discuss the game held before the start of the campaign) to help players establish the themes, allow people to meet and interact before jumping into the game, to and go over the expectations and wishes of everyone for the future games, as well as to help with character creation. I usually follow up with players privately after this to help fully flesh out characters, getting them game ready! I send checklists to each of my players before the first session, to talk about potential triggers, and establish lines and veils. I tend to follow up on these to ensure any covered themes are mentioned with care. These checklists are confidential; other players cannot see them! The VTT I use (Virtual Table Top) has built in features to use X, N and O cards. These are used to indicate when content may need to be skipped if anyone becomes uncomfortable. I also will have private channels on a discord server if ever anyone needs to message mid-session. Finally, I always put a minimum of one break into each of my sessions, but the frequency of breaks will be tailored to the needs of the players!

How will character creation work

I love to discuss character creation during session 0, so that everyone has a general idea as to what other players are interested in playing and such. I often begin character creation in the session 0,using D&D Beyond, offering an easy to understand step-by-step character creation method I then follow up with players privately to talk in more detail about characters, their backgrounds and motivations, to better integrate them into the story! Dungeons of Drakkenheim also offers some interesting backgrounds, and also 'Personal Quests' which are sources of inspiration for character creation which I'll be sharing with players. These are incredible for tying your chracter to the world, and of course, if none of them appeal to you, we'll make one together
