Dungeons & Dragons 5e | Campaign

About the adventure

Hey there! thanks for stopping by! This game is for the DND player who loves to be a bit of a writer, a bit of a backstory schemer, and wants to participate in the world building. A world where gods once walked as one of us. Greatness creates Deities. Life is valued and the world is thrown into constant roil by the assault of the elements and the hunger of the flying monsters known as Coilers. A flying Kobold city, a country with undead soldiers, a monster hunting town inside the shall of an ancient beetle and so much more. This continent is vast and varied and is only the start of what is to come. You'll be shocked if any of your deals are made without the help of the hag lawyer overlords. This campaign hopes to delve into the politics of undead warfare, fight ancient powerful monstrosities, and discovery why the Celestials and Devils of the world decided to leave without a trace. With janky kobold airships you'll find yourself flying across the sky, seeing sites such as the Glass desert, the titans forest, the City that only contains 750 people strictly or the tree that grows from lava. Perhaps you'll be responsible for bringing these many countries together, or perhaps you'll be responsible for keeping them apart. Mysteries to discover, monsters to smash, wonders to.... wonder... about? This game will encourage roleplay, exploration and each player to be a part of the world generation. You'll tell me what sort of cultural influences you want in your characters home towns, countries. What gods might exist? Then once we're off I'll use these and weave my own mayhem back and that's how we'll start the story!

This was my first real campaign with a proper GM and it was AMAZING. Fun, welcoming, making everyone immediately feel at home independent of their skill level. I looked forward for these evenings whole week, and Dawid created great chemistry between everyone involved. Engaging world, high-stakes but not too stressful story, and amazing NPCs. A perfect DnD experience!

Thoroughly enjoyed 5 weeks playing Dawid’s home brew. Dawid was very easy going and happy to explain things as many times as necessary for them to sink in. Looking forward to the next instalment.

I just finished my first campaign with him. The game he hosted kept me captivated and absorbed to the point, that I would block off all my thursday evenings for almost a year, so I wouldn't even miss an minute off it. In his games, he creates an atmosphere, where we all can have fun, make jokes and he tries to make all our silly ideas work.

Fantastic DM that is patient with everyone. I got hooked when he said i quote "It's better to ask first than to be confused in silence" . An awesome experience time and time again.

Dawid is a fantastic storyteller that sets the mood with great voices and descriptions. He is also good at pivoting to go along with silly shenanigans the party comes up with.

Dawid is super welcoming, patient, and entertaining. He really puts in the effort to make the most of the game platform for the sake of the story. He also always emphasizes helping the players feel like badasses and heroes.

Additional details

How to prepare

Prepare to work your creative mind! Be open to work with each other player in creating the wonderful setting for you. No one players group SHOULD have the same setting. Please don't come with a full head of preconcieved ideas if it's going to be hard to shift those ideas. We're all going to be malleable and work together to create a great story!

What I provide

This whole setting has been multiple years in the scheming. It's full of what I hold dear and precious I'll be making maps, taking your ideas and making them manifest. I have books for 5e, history with running hundreds and hundreds of games. This game has been heavily requested by my players and I'm excited to bring my world to the experiences of you and your party.

Gameplay details

You can expect a paced game up to 6th level, then levelling will be more casual as the story progresses. The story will be the focus and all the places we'll build together will be it's playground. You're not always going to have a house on fire, sometimes it'll just be cindering.

How will character creation work

Character Creation is open. We'll have a set array (better than 5e standard array) and open conversation about the type of game we'll have. There's going to be a session 0 for even more world generation. People do not come to this game with a character prepared, until you've joined and talked with everyone in the discord server!
