About the adventure

The Saga of Dreams and Dusk is an anthology covering centuries of in world time as an organization tries to prevent disaster in their cosmos. This series of campaigns will be comprised of many mini arc for players to jump in and out of, and will see perspectives of characters over their lifetime as well as alternating player characters. The Misithian Extraplanar Force is the pinnacle of magical achievement, taking the aesthetic of science fiction. Their presence in a fantastical cosmos has caused devils, demons, and mortals to push into new dangerous territories, conceiving of more cunning plots. The system used to run the game is easy to pick up, and will be taught through gameplay. It focuses on collaboration, consequence, and narrative that is conceptually simple, but can get mechanically complex!

I don't normally leave reviews but I can't encourage y'all enough to join one of Jesse's games. I stated with almost no experience role playing and it is really hard for me to picture events in my head when they are told to me. However Jesse is not only an amazing story teller, but their community is so excepting and amazing. I have loved every game I have played with them, and I have made so many life long friends because of them. If you have a hard time imagining or picturing events and or scenarios then Jesse is a DM you want. They bring every encounter to life in a way that everyone can get absorbed into it. They know how to grab and hold your attention and it will leave you thinking of the session even after it ends. I always make crazy backstories and it is hard to imagine those events coming up in a campaign but Jesse just does it beautifully, and in a way that flows to well within the story. I could go on and on about their games but the core of what I want to say is after almost 2 years of playing with them I still can't get enough of their stories and worlds. If you want to make lifelong friends and cry over characters them please give Jesse's games a shot. You won't be disappointed!

Jesse is a fantastic story teller who always gives their player's a chance to shine. If you want to try something weird and cool, they will definitely play ball, without breaking the world. The worlds created are fully fleshed out and intricate. If you love the role play aspect of D&D, Jesse is the dm for you! Combat is also super fun!

Jessie ran a very fun, very challenging level 19 one shot for charity and I got to play in it. It got silly because most of the players were Monkey Clerics named stuff like Dona"tail"o and Micha"lemur"angelo and then combat started and our Wish Simulacrum got smashed into teeny pieces in round 1 and it got serious. It was level 19 combat in a crowded hallway for three hours with spells and effects flying so that the DM describing the whole hallway was just vibrating with all the magic going off - mages on both sides counterspells, walls of force, disintegration, banishments, mind whips, chain lighting, buffs, debuffs, and meanwhile the cleric monkeys all go melee. It was run really, really well. There was so much high level magic hijinks and it didn't slow down anything. You know that's when a DM knows his stuff.
