Solar Sonata: A D&D Deep Space Adventure
Dungeons & Dragons 5e | Campaign
About the adventure
Normal life would never be the same again. Not since the flying ship came to rest in the middle of your humble place of origin. A man calling himself Crispin and his pet, an unusually large hamster sitting on his shoulder, addressed your entire town, looking for someone to join his crew and explore the worlds "beyond the stars." While most looked at him like a crazy man and kept their distance, you found his offer intriguing for one reason or another. So despite (or perhaps because of) your bonds and ties on this world, you accept a position on his ship, and set sail for locations and concepts you've never even dreamed of. Explore Wildspace and the Astral Sea in this space opera set in the furthest reaches of the D&D universe. Visit planets both canon and homebrew as you lead a nearly ageless life aboard a ship owned by an eccentric rich man and his crew of explorers. Welcoming to new and experienced players alike. Almost everyone's first D&D experience takes place on the Sword Coast - wouldn't you want your first adventure to be in space? Solar Sonata utilizes flavor and mechanics from Spelljammer: Adventures in Space. Some elements of Light of Xaryxis are used in addition to ample homebrew content to create a unique adventure that can be approached from a variety of ways.

What I provide
Virtual Tabletop: Quest Portal Character Creation: D&D Beyond Communication: Discord server Some Quest Portal scenes will contain ambient music. This feature can be disabled by the player if they wish. Rule of Cool tends to rule around here, but the rules themselves are important, too. But creativity is rewarded, so you can abide by the rules but still outshine and prove. Humor is great, too! Let's build a bizarre world together.
