About the adventure
Set in the Tempest Realms: https://www.worldanvil.com/w/the-tempest-realm-karlzone It has been over a year since Lady Wednesday moved to Biggityburg and set up her Wednesday Knights. These knights made a positive change to both the city and the surrounding lands. But now things have changed. The Ancient Green Dragon, Malachite the Glorious, has taken over the city. Join the Wednesday Knights and fight back against Malachite, her Green Scale minions, and other evils that the city faces! Wednesday Knights will be a series of one-shots (no commitment beyond a single one-shot required) where the players can select from a number of pre-built characters to quickly jump into the game. Once you pick a character that character is yours, meaning if you join a future one-shot in the series you can play the same character with all the loot and magic items they got from the other one-shots they participated in the series. Each one-shot is built to be completed in 1& 1/2 hours, but like all D&D games allow up to 3 hours as things can go off the rails. Each one-shot will have a clear goal to complete with, in most cases, an obvious route to complete the goal. Each session will contain combat (unless the players out smart me!) and some role-play elements. The whole setup for these one-shots is that they should be easy for an experienced player to jump in with minimum preparation. We are also new player friendly, though I would suggest new players pick up a martial class or have discussion about the character they want to play with the Game Master. These one-shots will be run under the D&D 5e (5e 2014) rules.
Episode 5 (Season 2) of the Wednesday Knights series (no prior knowledge needed). Malachite the Glorious, an Ancient Green Dragon, has taken over Biggityburg. The Wednesday Knights are preparing to drive her out. To defeat Malachite the Glorious, the dragon ruling over Biggityburg, the city will need heroes... perhaps ones that are stronger than the guild members of the Wednesday Knights. Lady Wednesday has sent a party to track down Athena Bladewalker, one of the mightiest heroes of Oros, and the leader of the Fiend Stalkers faction. The party has tracked her down to the middle of the Western Mountains, where she is on a mission to stop a demonic cult from performing a demon summoning ritual. What's a better way to prove yourself to her than helping her out on her mission. Pick from one of six pre-built characters to jump into this fast paced one-shot full of combat and shenanigans. Returning players are welcome to carry forward their existing characters or try someone new. New players are welcome to raid the armoury, claiming any unclaimed magic items. The players will need a working microphone and access to discord and Roll20. I would recommend they log into Roll20 early to select a character (first-in first-served basis) and to check the Roll20 handouts which will have details of which rules are in play, which rules are not, and what homebrew rules will be included to speed up combat. The players will need to log in to the Discord server at least 10 minutes before the start time of the game. This game is being run under the Dungeons and Dragons 5E (2014) rules.

How to prepare
The players will need a working microphone and access to discord and Roll20. I would recommend they log into Roll20 early to select a character (first-in first-served basis) and to check the Roll20 handout which will have details of which rules are in play, which rules are not, and what homebrew rules will be included to speed up combat.

What I provide
Everything is supplied between Roll20, World Anvil, and Discord. The games are designed to be minimal pre-game preparation by the players.
Gameplay details
The games will be faced paced and to the point, each game focused on the quest provided in the introduction of the one-shot. Because of the setup of these games, everything will be run RAW (Rules As Written) with exceptions where ROC (Rule Of Cool) will be applied. The DM asks that as each player signs up to the game and gets invited to the group Discord to inform the DM of any potential triggering subject matters - that way the DM can adjust the one-shot or give the player the option to pull out of the game. Players will be given a brief 'session 0' at the start of each one-shot to outline any potential triggers. Should anything problematic come up during the game, we will approach them in a pragmatic manner.
