Even Gods Have Secrets - Vecna Eve of Ruin

How to prepare

Players should have: Webcam (optional) Microphone An account on Roll20.net (free) An account on DnDBeyond.com (free) Either Chrome or Firefox browser (free) Installation of the Beyond20 Extension (free)(search Google for "beyond20 extension") A gmail email address (for Google Meet which I use as a backup for Discord) (free) Dice will be used digitally through DnDBeyond so no physical dice are required. (free) No need for character sheet printouts or anything like that as I will walk you through character creation.

What I provide

I will provide DnD Beyond access to all available races and magic items so that character creation options are wide open. I am a member of several great Patreons and I am a digital artist myself so I have some amazing maps and character tokens and can create custom tokens for you for our first session, following character creation in Session Zero. Come join my latest adventure and see what awaits! My version of the Forgotten Realms is different than most and more than a little homebrewed. For one thing, it is set a little further in the future than the current official D&D timeline (1532 DR) where the very first airships have begun to fly the skies (though still very rare) and land and water transportation have begun to fear for their ability to compete. There are pistols and rifles and I offer rules for playing a gunslinger. In addition, all official D&D races and classes are welcome (excluding Spelljammer's more alien races). I like to build a campaign around your characters. The only thing to keep in mind is your characters should have a reason to adventure and an interest in doing so with a group of like-minded heroes. To help build that synergy we will have a session zero to get things rolling. I run a game where I encourage roleplay and reward attempts to roleplay in character. I will work with you to help find your character's motivations. I also love a good, descriptive fight scene and will help make combats more exciting and narrative using my own homebrew tools and techniques. There will be a good deal of puzzles as this adventure is built on Vecna Eve of Ruin and there are lots of opportunities to solve problems and defeat obstacles with puzzles! This particular campaign has the potential to be brutal as we are facing high level challenges so please keep that in mind.

Gameplay details

IMPORTANT NOTE: Players who sign up one hour before a game session will be joining the game the following week if you haven't already spoken to me and set up your character before then. I used Monte Cook's RPG Consent List as well as Lines and Veils to help keep everyone within their comfort zone as best as I can but this is a Horror campaign set in the with potential situations where characters are trapped in tight spaces so please consider these things heavily before you sign up. Feel free to message me if you have concerns.

How will character creation work

When you sign up we will be conducting an individual, private, and free Session Zero where I will walk you through Character Creation and guide you through your character sheet on DnDBeyond. Everything you need for character creation will be handled during this Session Zero. If you have signed up less than an hour before game time you will not be joining us until the following week unless you have a nearly complete character in DnDBeyond which I can approve and verify beforehand. Forcing a session zero for a new player right at the beginning of a session the others are already paying for is not fair to anyone. Currently we have 3 players who have established characters at Level 15 so you will also be starting at this level.
