Dragon'sCurse-2024 Dynamic Combat&Roleplay [Experienced Players]

Creating your character

All PCs will be starting at 3rd level, with a free feat if your chosen background doesn't offer one. Prior to session 0, I will be speaking with each individual to help them set up their character mechanically and give them more information to help them create a character that feels like it lives in the world we'll be playing in. You will be able to change and adjust your team composition in order to make sure you have a proper(fun) adventuring party. Meaning you'll know and be able to adjust what you want to play based on what everyone else is playing. More information about the process can be provided.

If you die, you must continue pretending to roll until this is revealed. Moving within 5ft of an ally is enough to know if they are alive. __Visible Rolls:__ I will always roll enemy attacks and saves visibly, although other things may be rolled behind the screen. __Critical Success and failure:__ Rolling a natural 1 or a natural 20 is a guaranteed failure or success (within reason) __Flanking: __The optional flanking rule is *not* allowed.

How ZeroCool creates a safe table

Dragons needing killing 🐲🐲🐲🐲🐲 Puzzles 🧩 ( unless we consider every combat/social encounter to be a puzzle) High Stakes ⚖️⚖️⚖️⚖️⚖️ or 🥩🚬🥩🚬🥩 Impactful roleplay 👑👑👑👑👑 Immersive combat ⚔️⚔️⚔️⚔️⚔️ Evocative Worlds 🌎🌎🌎🌎🌎 No drama ( ok. Maybe loads of drama) This is a fast paced, high fantasy campaign designed to progress character backstory and nurture in-character friendships and role-playing. What's this about ? 🌎Welcome to the world of Ashen. It sits snuggly between the shafowfell and feywild realms. This means you'll find things like pixies and wraiths zooming about in the same forests. 📚Our journey begins by following a group mismatched adventurers that have been sent in to investigate an attack on the city of Erblithe. 🐲Nearly a year ago. A massive shadow dragon attacked the city. There are still some rumours and gossip regarding what exactly happened. However, one thing is clear: there were no survivors. 🥶A miasma of cold and frost permeates the city of Erblithe now. So chilling, that even a frost giant would be turned into a pillar of ice at a touch. ⚔️ Will the adventurers seek to infiltrate the city and potentially steal its most coveted treasure? Or will they journey into the necromancy wizards sky piercing towers? To learn of their new conjuration rituals ? But maybe... just maybe. They might band together to slay the dragon and break the curse that was laid on Erblithe.
