Call of the Netherdeep| Chapter 2 | Level 4-13

Dungeons & Dragons 5e | Campaign

About the adventure

Embark on a journey through the mystic lands of Exandria, where the echoes of an unfathomable pain reverberate across realms. In Call of the Netherdeep, your party of adventurers will uncover ancient secrets, navigate tense political intrigue, and descend into a realm hidden beneath the ocean's depths. Each decision shapes your fate as you confront dark forces, make powerful allies, and unravel a long forgotten mystery. Will you rise to restore a broken legacy, or fall prey to the shadows of the Netherdeep?

Game style

Rule of Cool (RoC)

“Rule of Cool” emphasizes creative story beats over sticking to a system’s 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.

Roleplay Heavy

“Roleplay Heavy” 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.

Kass is an excellent DM, she sets the stage and lore beforehand so you can jump in without feeling behind the curve if you start mid-campaign. Rule of cool but still structured so you feel the tension of your choices. I'm having a great time in her campaign.

Is good, much recommend. All joking aside, Kass runs an amazing game. They are amazingly patient with the new players and sets tone/pace with ease. As a long time DM, I'm excited to see where this adventure goes!

Kass is just a delight and someone I look forward to gaming with in the nights after a long day of work! She will be up front with the ground rules you will need to know for her adventures and she is flexible with with what kind of characters you bring to her table, even if they can get a little chaotic. She allows a lot of roleplay and exploration to take in the game and its world at your own pace, which is good for lore seekers or anyone wanting to solve simple mysteries. The Kenku bot she uses also adds a nice touch of atmosphere to relax with while dungeon crawling! I highly recommend her for anyone who wants a night to hang out with strangers to roll some dice and tell a story!

I have played 5 levels of Sorlock with Kass and company, in Tomb of Annihillation. I never really thought of this as a role-play intense adventure, but she makes that work for people who enjoy a lot of roleplay. I like that she even keeps the narrative going in between sessions. For me, that would have been plenty of roleplay. This keeps the characters engaged during the week, while out of session. It really brings the characters to life in the downtime. If roleplay is your preference, Kass is a great DM. I'm sure she will also accommodate those who crave some combat action. Unfortunatley, life is taking me down a different path at the moment, and I already played through levels 6 to completion in 2023. Tomb of Annihilation is a fantastic adventure. Exploration, roleplay, death (maybe), primative cultures and Yuanti cults, (spoilers), and even dinosaur racing (not a typo) are all part of the fun. Kass says it is "an Exandria remix, an adventure unlike any Tal'dorei has ever seen" . I don't see it. But it wouldn't need to be, Chult is an awesome place to be for this adventure. I'm guessing, maybe, the Exandria part comes in at the end of the adventure (spoilers unknown), because she is running this all the way to level 17. I personally only have finished this at level 12. What are the last 5 levels? Play it and see. I wish I could see the rest of how this plays out, and if she will have me, I would gladly come back at level 12 to see her last 5 exciting levels. Hoping to have exciting evenings again in the future, but my personal life took me out of the game.

How to prepare

You will need to have/bring: 🎤 A Microphone and Discord Downloaded 🎲 A DNDBeyond and a Roll20 account (They're both free) 🗡️ Beyond20 Browser extension for Firefox or Chrome (Not necessary but allows you to roll from DNDBeyond! 🙋 Your character, if you've decided to make it in advance (pre-gens are available on request!) 📸 A Webcam (If you would like to use video, but this isn't required) 😊 A Positive Attitude and a Smile!

What I provide

Roll20 maps: Colorful maps with Dynamic Lighting to really set the scene. Tokens: NPC's and Players get unique tokens to represent themselves. Music: Ambient music and combat tracks to help set the mood and try and get you in your character's head! Content on D&D Beyond: Freedom to choose the subclass and features you want with content sharing from my Library containing hundreds of $$$ of D&D content! Access to an exclusive discord community of like-minded TTRPG-loving people with an unmatched love for this form of Storytelling! Unique Storylines: Every table and game is completely unique and YOURS! No game of mine ever runs the same way twice. Positive, Safe & Inclusive Atmosphere: I love sharing my passion for this game and making sure everyone at the table feels included and seen. I am a Rules meets Cool DM. I am almost always happy to allow a good idea at the table, and will reward quick thinking and roleplay decisions. We will default to Rules as Written in cases of disagreement, but I am more concerned about the narrative aspect of your story and will push to give you those whenever possible!

Gameplay details

When it comes to player safety and comfort nothing is more important, pre-session every player will fill out an RPG Consent Checklist which will allow me to avoid triggers before the game even begins. Then every session zero includes letting players know any content warnings that may be present in the adventure and informing them about my open door, break and debrief policies. Players are also welcome at any time to either take breather or a break from the game, and at no point will they ever be asked to go into detail about ANYTHING they may not be comfortable with. Also, while the game is going on, if at any point a player needs content to stop immediately, they may hold up an X/N or type one in chat or private DM. This will allow me to make the necessary moves needed to make sure everyone continues to have a great time playing! Lastly, I am a huge believer in debriefing/aftercare. At the end of each session I will always hang around for anywhere between 15-30 minutes to chat about the session and to just generally hang out with anyone who wants to stick around! This is great for sessions where we may get into some heavier content so we can either discuss it or unpack it if need be! Remember, your comfort and your fun come first!
