About the adventure
A treacherous world where political machinations and ancient sorcery collide. Unravel the secrets behind the Cursed Crown, contend with shadowy adversaries, and uncover the dark history that plagues the land. Will you break the curse or be consumed by it? The fate of the realm rests in your hands! The tone leans heavily into intrigue, character-driven storytelling, and slow-burning tension. Expect a mix of social maneuvering, exploration, and high-stakes decisions where there is rarely a clean or obvious answer. Your relationships, your reputation, and your willingness to push boundaries will shape how the story unfolds. This game is for players who enjoy immersion, collaboration, and playing characters with depth. You do not need to be an expert in the rules, but you should be interested in engaging with the world, paying attention, and contributing to the story. If you like uncovering mysteries, making difficult calls, and watching your actions ripple outward in unexpected ways, you will feel right at home here.

About me
I'm Dopefish, a GM with over ten years of experience in crafting unforgettable adventures in the worlds of Dungeons & Dragons and beyond. Whether you're a seasoned veteran or a newcomer eager to embark on your first adventure, I aim to create a thrilling and immersive experience that will leave you eagerly anticipating our next session. I believe in fostering a collaborative and inclusive environment where every player's choices shape the narrative. From treacherous dungeons and mystical realms to complex characters and intricate plots, I tailor each campaign to ensure that your story is unique and memorable. I run my games using Fantasy Grounds or Roll20 as well as Discord for voice and organizing. We don't use cameras.

Creating your character
Since this is an established campaign, you will work with me before your first session to create a character that fits the world, current events, and party. Bring a concept or idea, and we will shape it together so your character feels naturally integrated into the story.
The party currently consists of an Elf Druid, Tiefling Wizard, Tiefling Artificer, and Halfling Bard/Sorcerer. We use the 2014 D&D 5E ("legacy") ruleset.

How Dopefish creates a safe table
A consent checklist will be handed out for each player to fill in and any triggers will be avoided. I also believe in an open-door policy, where you can come to me at any point during or after a session to discuss whatever didn't sit right.
