Shifting Sands - Desert Mysteries- [Homebrew] [Free session 0]

How to prepare

Please make a discord account if you do not have one. Mic required, camera optional, please. Make an account on Owlbear Rodeo, and download the free icon starter packs in your profile. Digital or physical dice are fine, there's an extension in OR for rolling, but you don't have to use it. I operate on the honour system (plus, always passing every roll makes the game boring!). If you require blank character sheets, I have them and will provide during session 0.

What I provide

For this homebrew project, I am pleased to be able to offer: - a unique, professionally made, customised overworld map. - Curated ambient music - Owlbear Rodeo for a VTT. It's intuitive and allows for smooth combat. - Virtually all official books and some third party ones - And a few supplementary things to enhance builds! Very little is required of my players, just good humour and imagination!

Gameplay details

During session 0, we can discuss what may come up, and the broad theme of the game as well as looking at the broad base of the campaign and establishing characters/party composition as a group (pre-generated characters will be available). We will also establish Lines and Veils. This campaign is less intense than my usual fare akin to Tomb of Annihilation, but be prepared for just about anything!

How will character creation work
