Nodra is a GM that allows you to play a character to their fullest extent. He gives you personalized mini side-quests, objectives, items, connections with NPCs that make sense in the world you play in. He personalizes the world to the characters that play in them to great detail. Overall, incredibly good GM to have!
Character creation
Creating your character
✔ We will stick to the 2024 rule books for this game. No extra sources are allowed. ✔ Character creation can happen on D&D Beyond or within Foundry VTT. I will help you move characters from D&D Beyond to Foundry VTT when needed. ✔ We will not be using the link between foundry and D&D beyond. If required, I will take some time getting you familiar with the Foundry VTT character sheets.
Our first part of the campaign has ended; we will gather again for our follow-up with the second book around August 16th.

Safety
How Nodra creates a safe table
✔ We play using Discord for voice and Foundry VTT for visuals, sheets, and dice. A decent personal computer is required; tablets and phones are not recommended to run these tools during a session. Foundry VTT is configured with minimal automation. ✔ Session zero is used to get a short intro, go over character backgrounds, and possible links between characters as they meet up to head to the house. People starting later will get a private session zero so they can jump in. ✔ Tabletop role-playing games are meant to be an escape from the troubles of our daily lives. Members of the party are expected to work as a team while being open and respectful to all. Real-world prejudices, such as racism, misogyny, homophobia, and transphobia, are not acceptable.
