This is a heavy combat and exploration focused adventure, but there are a ton of chances for rp too! Levels 5-20. It's not all dungeons and monsters, however, the furthur down you go the more the madness of the mage becomes evident. Because as you make your way through the dungeon, you'll soon realize: ๐๐'๐ฃ๐ ๐๐๐ ๐ ๐๐๐ฅ๐ฅ๐๐ ๐๐๐ ๐๐ ๐จ๐ ๐๐๐ฃ๐. ๐๐๐๐๐๐: โ๏ธโ๏ธโ๏ธโ๏ธโ๏ธ ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐: ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐: ๐บ๏ธ๐บ๏ธ๐บ๏ธ๐บ๏ธ๐บ๏ธ ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐: ๐งฉ๐งฉ ๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐: ๐๐๐
Game style
Rule of Cool (RoC)
โRule of Coolโ emphasizes creative story beats over sticking to a systemโs rules as written. Players have the ability to push the limits of the rules or even break core rule mechanics at times if the Game Master thinks it is interesting, fun, or cool enough.
Combat Heavy
โCombat Heavyโ games emphasize the combat mechanics within their systems over roleplay or puzzle solving. There are frequent and longer battles with enemies and a greater emphasis on tactical game play.
Roleplay Heavy
โRoleplay Heavyโ games place the focus on the story, the characters, and the world they live within, and tend to lean hard into the various roleplaying elements of the game. These games will frequently find the party talking with NPCs, exploring the personal elements of their backstories, or even having emotional moments around the camp fire.
Dungeon Crawl
A โDungeon Crawlโ is a scenario where players navigate a dungeon or labyrinth-like environment for the entirety of the adventure. It emphasizes battling monsters, collecting loot, and avoiding traps to survive to the end!
We will be using the 2024 rules for this campaign. This is a Rp heavy group that likes to try and RP situations before resulting to bloodshed, but also wont hold back once the fighting starts. Current group: Goliath Illusionist Wizard Shadar-kai Eldritch Knight Human Storm Sorcerer/Rogue

Additional details
How to prepare
You will need: - a D&D Beyond and Roll 20 account. (basic is fine) - You will need at minimum a mic, webcam is not necessary if you don't want to be on camera (though it is more fun to see reactions) - Have a basic idea of at least the character you want to play, and by the end of session 0, a description so I can make the tokens. - a strong desire to delve into a seemingly never ending dungeon
What I provide
Here's what I bring: -custom tokens -maps with use of dynamic lighting -background music to set the vibe. -bad attempts at character voices - tissues for when your character eventually succumbs to the dungeon Things we will track: rations ๐ฒ (including harvesting of monster meat) water ๐ Things we won't track: common arrows ๐น (unless you REALLY want to)
Gameplay details
We will start with a free Session 0 where we create characters and go over each others lines and veils. There is no shaming or discrimination at my table. After each session we will have a debrief/stars and wishes session. I'll ask if anyone wants to mention anything or post a link to fill out a form online.

How will character creation work
This will happen in session 0, which will be a free session. We can discuss the characters, classes, and races you are interested in playing and try to put together a cohesive team. No edgy loner types, this is a cooperative campaign. Stats can either be rolled for on D&D beyond (DURING session zero), standard array, or point buy. IF rolling, it will be done with a shared screen during session zero so everyone can cheer or offer their condolences. Starting level will depend on number of players. 3 start at level 6 4-5 start at level 5 Character will be made on DNDbeyond, but you can easily use Beyond20 to transfer them to Roll20 if you are more comfortable using that.
