About the adventure
They call you a monster. Prove. Them. Right. This is an "upside-down" D&D 5e (2024) campaign about the monsters in the dungeon. Your character is a monster (monstrous species + PC class). Interested players can write a (tragic) background for their monster to be integrated into the narrative. Together, these monsters (i.e. - the PC party) have decided they’re done being beaten down by the self-proclaimed “good guys”. The monsters are going to defend their dungeon, steal back their treasures, and protect folk like themselves from the “brave” and “just”. Beginners are welcome, and pre-gen characters are available. Join us today!
This campaign is going to be a learning experience for us all when it comes to the new D&D 5e 2024 rules. Ergo, players of any experience level, beginner or grizzled veteran, are welcome!

How to prepare
A microphone is required, and a webcam is great for those comfortable. I will use one so you can see the face attached to the voice. You will also need an account a Roll20 account (free), a Discord (free) account, and a D&D Beyond (free) account. Access to the D&D 5e 2024 PHB is not required. I will provide rules access to those interested via D&D Beyond. Players are more than welcome to ask me about any splatbooks, WOTC or otherwise, that they may want to use.
What I provide
We will use D&D Beyond for character sheets, Roll20 for necessary maps and dice, Discord for voice. My GM style relies very heavily on character motivations and player drive. While the first scenario will be set for the players, choices matter, and what happens next comes down to them. All you really need though is a desire to roleplay your character, and the maturity to play well with others.
Gameplay details
In Session 0 we'll discuss Lines and Veils, and other safety tools. After each session, we'll discuss Stars and Wishes (and XP!). Further debriefing and discussion can take place in group or one-on-one after the session is over. There is no room at my table for Real-Life sexism, racism, ableism, ageism, homophobia, transphobia, abuse, aggression, bullying, or any other kind of toxic behavior against any other player. You get one warning only, because anyone can make a mistake. After that, you're gone, but if it's really egregious, you won't even get a warning.
