About the adventure

Listen up, berk, ’cause I’m only going to tell it once. Who am I? Your best friend if it’s the truth you’re seeking, but I’m not barmy enough to tell you my name. Plenty of bloods lose their lives by sharing too much with strangers in the Cage. The multiverse is a big place, and it don’t play by the “normal rules,” whatever they are, but learning the dark of them is the stuff of life. A being’s got to become a blood to know all the different ways magic works out on the Great Ring, and no basher should ever be able to just lay his hands on a map of all the portals between the planes. There’s things a sod wasn’t meant to know and things he’s just got to learn by experience. (A body can describe what it’s like in the furnaces of Carceri, but it just ain’t the same as going there.) Sure, some of the multiverse is so simple that even a bariaur basher’d understand, but there’s some of it that’s real dark, and it’s meant to be that way. So if you want to unlock the dark of the multiverse, there’s one cutter who can show it to you, and that’s the DM of this here campaign. So roll up a basher of your own, head to the Cage, and open up some doors. The entire Multiverse awaits… Join us for a campaign in the infinite planes every week! A sandbox where the characters determine the direction of the story. Experience the plots and factions vying for control of Sigil, the Cage. The Outlands and the strange cities sitting on the brink of portals to other dimensions. Dangerous journeys through the outer planes. High-stakes battles against legendary foes in the endless Blood War. Tales packed with twists, turns, and meaningful choices. A blend of humor, intensity, and character-driven moments. You’ll start in the city of Sigil at the center of all things, and your choices will determine the direction of our tale. No previous knowledge of any kind is necessary and all levels of experience with D&D and Planescape are welcome! Message me for more details here or my Discord: shadowedechoes

Additional details

How to prepare

All you need is a decent microphone and a desire for an amazing story! Video is available, but is not required. Session 0 will be free

What I provide

I will have Roll20 ready with maps, artwork, handouts, and full ambient music. I will also have legal use PDFs available for any players who need them.

Gameplay details

I have a Google form I will send you once you sign up that will very thoroughly go through lines and veils. I also use digital and/or messaged and/or held up on video X, N, & 0 cards. I am also available after each session for aftercare, as needed. At session 0 we will go over lines and veils that were filled out ahead of time (anonymously) so player expectations can be set.

How will character creation work

We will discuss characters at session 0. There is no charge for this introductory session. All official 5e published products are allowed. I will have some homebrew at session 0. If you prepare characters ahead of time, they will begin at level 1. Please bring 2 or 3 characters for you to choose from so there is a good party balance, or wait and create characters at session 0.
