About the adventure
Official Description: After millennia of infighting and exploitation, many of Belkzen’s orcs crave prosperity and reform. Ardax the White-Hair, a bold orc leader, has invited delegates from across the world to visit Belkzen during its most spectacular natural event: the Flood Truce, when meltwater turns badlands into vibrant wetlands, feeding the nation. Yet not all appreciate Ardax’s diplomatic overtures. When disaster strikes, several guests of honor must take up arms against Belkzens’ enemies and help its orcs realize a brighter future. Free Player's Guide! https://downloads.paizo.com/TriumphOfTheTusk_PlayersGuide.pdf ------ New to Play-by-Post? No problem! It is a low-stress, highly-rewarding format and I'll help you every step of the way. [Play-by-Post] Do you want to join a campaign but your availability prevents you from committing regularly? Does engaging at your own pace throughout the week without the pressure of the moment and with access to live chats with your Dungeon Master sound appealing? Well you're in the right place! The Play-by-Post (PbP) format is nearly as old as D&D and is a rewarding way to engage in this fantastic pastime. While it is true that the comradery of the kitchen table is lost in PbP, you gain the ability to plan without pressure, to refine your roleplay, to research your actions. And many see Play-by-Post as more immersive than live games, that the Theater-of-the-Mind is more easily engaged without the distractions of half-decent accents, the bell of midnight quickly approaching, and the smell of aging nachos. *Note: This adventure is Play-by-Post and will be conducted throughout the week at your pace. While live check-ins with me are available, the adventure will be conducted in Discord channels where we will also store concept art, maps, a compendium of magic items, a room for chit chat, and more. Please send me a message if you'd like to know more.

Additional details
How to prepare
You'll need a phone, computer, or laptop, of course. You'll also need an Account with Discord. Maps will be shared by me. Come with a rough idea of what you want to play but be flexible. If you're a beginner, let me know and we can work on this together!
What I provide
We'll house all character art, maps, notes, NPC info, etc. in a Discord server I manage. I use Tupperbox to display the various NPCs and give a deeper sense of immersion. I'll run maps through Owlberar Rodeo with a vast library of assets but use concept art for most exploration and roleplay.
Gameplay details
Each player will have their own, private channel within the server if they need to reach out to me for any reason. I'm also available to talk over video chat upon request. We will have a Session 0 in a Discord server devoted to that. We'll all check off the Monte Cook Checklist before we begin.

How will character creation work
We will have a Session 0 where we get to know one another, discuss the "truths" of the campaign, share our character concepts, and build character bonds together. We'll plan to come away from Session 0 with a number of questions to flesh out in order to more deeply flesh out our characters and bonds. I'll follow up on those questions throughout the first week to support you.
