About the adventure
In "Echoes of the Lost Gods," you find yourself in a world on the brink of upheaval as ancient and powerful deities, long forgotten by time, stir from their slumber. The campaign begins with strange and unsettling omens across Krynn—forgotten temples rediscovered, prophetic dreams, and the sudden resurgence of long-dormant magic. As whispers of these lost gods grow louder, you are drawn into a quest to uncover the truth behind their mysterious return. Your journey will take you through perilous landscapes, from the ruins of ancient civilizations to hidden sanctuaries guarded by powerful entities. Along the way, you will confront the remnants of the Dragon Armies, who seek to harness the returned gods' power for their own dark purposes. As you delve deeper, you will uncover a grand and ominous prophecy that hints at a cosmic struggle between the resurrected deities and an emerging threat that could tear the world apart. Choices made throughout the campaign will influence not only the fate of Krynn but also the nature of the divine forces themselves.

About me
Welcome friends and travelers! I've been a weekly DM for about 7 years now, and one thing I’ve learned is that everyone at the table is here to have fun, no matter their experience level or personality. The "rule of cool" is always a favorite of mine, and I strive to create a space where everyone feels comfortable expressing their creativity. Whether you’re diving into official modules or exploring unique homebrew worlds in 5e, I’m here to help you bring your character to life and ensure you feel included in the adventure. What got me into tabletop roleplay was the first time I played D&D when I was young. Surrounded by the soft glow of flickering candles in a basement, the excitement was tangible as my friend the DM began weaving a story of ancient ruins and forgotten treasures. Holding my character sheet felt like holding a key to a new world, and every roll of the dice brought a thrill of suspense. The map on the table transformed into a vast landscape of adventure, and as we navigated dungeons and faced mythical creatures, the shared laughter and camaraderie made the experience unforgettable. That first game was a spellbinding dive into a world where imagination knows no bounds, and it ignited a lifelong passion for the magic of D&D. Because of that, I love sitting down with players to craft characters you'll cherish throughout the campaign. If this is your first time trying 5e or have years of experience, don't worry—I'll work with you to find your comfort zone and make sure your voice is heard. Together, we’ll build an immersive, lived-in world where every decision feels natural and impactful. If needed I make small rule tweaks to enhance the fun and flow of the game, always checking in to ensure everyone feels at ease. We're not just playing a game; we're crafting stories that you’ll be proud to tell your friends about for years to come. In this space, everyone’s contribution is valued, and together, we’ll create something truly special. I can’t wait to see what we’ll achieve! If you have any questions or just want to chat about the game, please feel free to reach out to me at my email or on here!!

Creating your character
Will this happen during the first session, or before it starts? -Character creation and discussions about campaign details will typically happen before the first session. We’ll go over character creation, backgrounds, and any specific details in our Session 0 to ensure everyone is ready to dive into the adventure from the very first game. How will stats be decided? -Stats will be decided using standard array, 4d6s take out the slowest, or if we are feeling lucky just a d20 depending on what best suits the campaign and the group’s preferences. We’ll discuss these options in Session 0 to ensure everyone has a clear understanding and agreement. What will their starting level be? -Characters will start at level 1. This allows for a more immersive and progressive development of abilities and story, fitting the campaign’s narrative. Where will the characters be created? -Characters will be created using Roll20 character sheets, which you can access and update at any time. This platform will help keep everything organized and easily accessible throughout the campaign. Are there any specific books they should or shouldn't refer to? -For this campaign, it’s best to focus on the core rulebooks (Player’s Handbook, Dungeon Master’s Guide, and Monster Manual) and any specific sourcebooks or supplements I mention. Avoid relying on homebrew or third-party content that isn’t approved for this campaign to ensure consistency and balance in the game.
