About the adventure

Want to start an epic, level 1-20 game within a massive megadungeon? Cool. That's what we're doing. The Palace is an action packed romp through a mythical castle in the clouds, where every doorway is a portal to a randomly determined room. No two adventures play the same. The game is balanced between combat, role-play, tactics, strategy, puzzles, problem-solving, and more. It attempts to make a setting where every class has a useful tool within game play. EVERY. SINGLE. ROOM. is illustrated. Can you make it to the last room? Probably not. Characters die. This is not an easy module, but sometimes dying is half the fun (the other half is the friends we make along the way!). It's like if an old school megadungeon came to life, like really came to life - more than just rooms on a map, but an ecosystem of monsters, NPC's, and even gods, woven into a complete narrative through every chapter of western mythology. Any species and class is available. Roll up your character however you want, using an method you like. I will give you the same respect you give me.

About me

Hey! Old Skool Gm with an open mind here! I run The Palace of 1001 Rooms exclusively. No restrictions on species and class! Homebrew content welcome! I lean towards gritty realism within high fantasy based on real mythology. It's serious and whimsical all at once - and sometimes a little NSFW. I promise you will come out the other side of the Palace with something that no other game can deliver.

Character creation
Creating your character

I love it when a party gets together and decides what their characters will be. However, I also like it when players already have their characters created and ready to go. We can discuss the party's makeup during a session 0 game or you can come knowing what you want to play. Either is fine. Level is also up to the party.

What to expect

What Cloaked Figure brings to the table

The Palace of 1001 Rooms is a fully illustrated megadungeon I personally created. There are many VTT maps, custom tokens, and more set up in Roll20. I take a lot of pride in setting up each chapter with lighting, music, and other ambience to make the game immersive. Because each chapter is its own Roll20 game, it is highly recommended that you create your character in DnD Beyond. Characters in Roll20 will have to be exported and imported whenever the party moves into a different chapter.

Safety
How Cloaked Figure creates a safe table

Lines: No real world politics, no fascist, misogynistic, or racist rhetoric will be tolerated. There will be no vivid descriptions of sexual encounters. Veils: There is an allusion to what might be considered rape in the game. It deals with an unwanted pregnancy, but leaves the means and methods to the imagination. The Palace deals with a lot of real mythology, which includes many adult and sometimes disconcerting subjects. These subjects are treated respectfully, with consideration for the players.
