The Quest to Save Squidward
Dungeons & Dragons 5e | Campaign
About the adventure
Welcome to the world of Jacale Murlan. Two main continents and many scattered islands inhabit the world. Klavek has three main countries: Klavek, Edrassa and Temple of Light. Klavek, the country, is at war with those from the other large continent, Vikdomere. Your party is one of adventurers and heroes who have accepted Klavek's call for aid to go to the land of their ancient enemy, the Vikdomere, where they have been able to covertly establish a foothold on a small peninsula. Due to the nature of mission, details are very limited, and you will be given specifics when you land. Upon entering the port city from where you will head out across the waters, there is a large commotion. A horribly mutated local has come upon the shore, and from the murmurs you hear from those standing around, he isn't the first. Many have diappeared. The mayor has put up a reward for resolution to this issue, and your boat captain is questioning the safety of heading out until after this issue is fixed. Upon comleting the quest, the party will learn that there is more to what is happenning and are asked to help more. The campaign can have multiple possible adventure paths, and it is up to the players what they do and where they go and how they influence what is happening in their home land and try to stop the growing dangers. The campaign starts with players at level 1 and has the potential of reaching level 20, or beyond.
This is a streamed campaign on twitch. We do not use video at this time and use the token pictures of the PCs.

How to prepare
You will need a Shard account. They are free. They do have paid subscription options, but they are not required to participate in a campaign. You will need a Discord account as that is the application used for voice for the campaign. You will need a mic as voice is used for the campaign. You may also use a webcam if you like, but it isn't required. You will not need dice as it is an online campaign, and the VTT I use, Shard, has a built-in dice roller. Character creation will be done during session 0 after you have gotten a link to the campaign. If you would like to practice making a character using Shard on a free account, that is up to you. However, the options are somewhat limited, and you will not have access to my content for character creation unless you go through an invite link to the campaign.
What I provide
I will be bringing my VTT and all of my content that is on it, which I am consistently expanding on. I do do some voice acting for NPCs. I am not professionally trained, but it is better than not doing them at all. I use a mix of Theatre of the Mind and Battle Maps, but almost the entirety of combat is done on Battle Maps. Theatre of the Mind is mostly reserved for out-of-combat RP and such. I'm working on the music side of it, but I'l a ways away from that, still. Combat can be highly tactical, but I base that on the group as a whole. I love running highly intesnse, and sometimes large scale battles with multiple possible success and failure states, but not all groups would work well with that. As far as RAW, RAI and Rule of Cool, a lot of that will be gone over in session 0.
Gameplay details
I will go over the Safety Tool and Content Warnings during Session 0. X, N and O cards are on the VTT chat. Character creation will also happen during Session 0. Different groups have different needs and desires, so going through them during Session 0 can put the campaign on the correct path for each player.
Content warnings
Safety tools used
• Monte Cook RPG Consent Checklist
• Open Door
• Session 0
• X, N, and O Cards
How will character creation work
Character creation will be part of Session 0. Only content that I have on my VTT is allowed, and only some of it depending on setting and areas of the campaign. For instance, you don't have access to Star Wars races or classes for a non-Star Wars campaign, and you can't be a Pokemon Trainer for a standard campaign either, even though I have that content. Players start at level 1 unless you are joining after the camapign has alrady started and the group has leveled. You will be using an upgraded array of 17, 15, 13, 12, 10, 8. You will be making them on www.shardtabletop.com, which is the VTT I am using for the campaign. You will have access to my content that consists of some SRD, some bought 3rd party content, as well as a lot of content I have personally added.
