About the adventure
Drakkenheim is no more An occult storm of shooting stars devastated the town that fateful night, leaving behind a meteor with corrosive effects. Fifteen years on, Drakkenheim is a bleak urban wasteland contaminated by otherworldly magic and haunted by hideous monsters. Fantastic wealth, lost knowledge and powerful artefacts lie in wait for adventurers brave or foolish enough to venture into the ruins. However, even those who survive the dangers of Drakkenheim may not return unscathed from its horrors! Campaign overview Dungeons of Drakkenheim is a fantasy adventure set in a ruined Gothic Renaissance town. The campaign is designed with four player characters in mind, so adjust accordingly for smaller or larger groups. You can play Drakkenheim as a series of loosely connected exploration quests or an unpredictable tale filled with factional conflict. The content here will challenge characters from 1st to 13th level.

Meet the Game Master

About me
I became Game Master in 2009 with the newly written Dark Heresy RPG. It was my first experience as a Game Master (but I had one player and we played wrongly but for fun). Now I added many new RPG like Call of Cthulhu, the Warhammer 40k series of Edge Studio, Paranoïa, Mutant Year Zero and of course, Dungeons & Dragons (3.5 first and now 5th edition). Additionaly, I was part of an association of games and was appointed Game Master for 3 years consecutively. My field of study turned out to be cinema, and I have a diploma in directing and screenwriting with a specialisation in series. I also have a Youtube and Twitch channel focusing on video games. I propose a new experience as a Game Master as you travel through the dark and horrible univers of the Dungeons of Drakkenheim. Will your group survive the danger of the delerium ? Or will you add to the pile of monsters roaming the streets ? ===================================================== Je suis devenu maître de jeu en 2009 avec le RPG Dark Heresy qui venait d'être écrit. C'était ma première expérience en tant que maître de jeu (mais j'avais un seul joueur et nous avons joué n'importe comment, mais pour le plaisir). Maintenant, j'ai ajouté de nombreux nouveaux jeux de rôle comme Call of Cthulhu, la série Warhammer 40k de Edge Studio, Paranoïa, Mutant Year Zero et bien sûr, Donjons & Dragons (3.5 d'abord et maintenant la 5ème édition). De plus, j'ai fait partie d'une association de jeux et j'ai été nommé Maître de Jeu pendant 3 années consécutives. Mon domaine d'étude s'en est retrouvé tourné autour du cinéma et j'ai ainsi un diplôme de Réalisateur-Scénariste en option série. J'ai également une chaîne Youtube et Twitch orienté sur les jeux vidéos. Je vous propose une nouvelle expérience en tant que Maître de Jeu en vous faisant voyager dans l'univers sombre et horrible des Donjons de Drakkenheim. Votre groupe survivra-t-il au danger du delerium ? Ou bien allez-vous grossir les rangs des monstres qui rôdent dans les rues ?

Creating your character
During session 0, after the pre-session 0 which will have enabled us to meet each other, we'll create level 1 characters in the classic way (random stats). Come along with one or two character concepts (maybe more if you're up to it) and we'll see how your group can work. There's no need to think in conventional terms (tank, dps, healer...) just think of a concept that will amuse you (without becoming parodic or burlesque) unless you can justify your madness to me in a roleplaying way.
What to expect
Preparing for the session
The sessions will take place on Foundry VTT and discord. You'll need your webcam, a microphone and your internet connection. If we switch to stream mode afterwards, for those who don't want to appear on webcam, I can find alternative solutions.
What Dark Elyrion brings to the table
I took part in both of Drakkenheim's fund-raising campaigns and translated the entire first one into French. As already explained in my bio, I use background music and a voice modulator for NPCs and monsters. I prefer players to come up with crazy ideas for epic actions rather than just following the rules. Being well versed in the world of cinema, I tend to take a cinematic approach. I'm not denigrating DPS, but I've already had far too many campaigns that were all about min-maxing, so I'd really like to discover a roleplay-oriented group. If we have good group synergy, I'd almost consider doing stream sessions (I've got the equipment to do it).

How Dark Elyrion creates a safe table
I have a Google Form document that I can use to define the limits: The Digital RPG consent checklist. We'll do a pre-session 0 to talk about this and make sure everyone agrees.
