Dungeons & Dragons 5e | Campaign
About the adventure
The village of Haven holds the Kingdom of Kalendia together, but a string of disappearances is tearing Haven apart. Investigating the disappearances leads you to uncover a cast conspiracy to change the very nature of the Demon Goddess of Death. Will the Cult of Eostere spell the world's doom? Will Kalendia's fragile peace be shattered? Will the monsters that lurk in the dark start to bleed into the daylight? It's all up to you.

New review
Having Michael as my first DM has been really great. He's kind and patient with newer players, but keeps things fun and engaging with great descriptions, dramatic voices, and interesting character information. They say when you love something, you teach it easily, and Michael personifies that. It's also really clear he's having fun alongside us, and that makes the game even more enjoyable.

Excellent DM!

Very fun! I like the way he describes environments, does voices, and builds challenge.
Alex
Have played a few games with him and have really enjoyed it, he puts a lot of detail into world building and creating plot hooks that keep you engaged.

How to prepare
PREMADE CHARACTER SHEETS AVAILABLE Players will need an account on D&D Beyond for character sheets, a discord account to contact me with any questions, and access to Google Meet for sessions. Microphones are required. Webcams and headphones are strongly encouraged. Session 0 will feature a walkthrough of character creation for all players.
What I provide
I will be hosting the game using a combination of DND Beyond and either Zoom or Google Meet, depending on what works best for the group. I have access to most source books, and am willing to go find more if a player has a character idea. I do character voices to help me keep the various NPCs straight in my head. I think they're pretty good, but I'll let you be the judge. I have never hosted a session with ambient music before, and would like to experiment with it this campaign. If it isn't working we will adjust. In general, I tend to lean more "Rule of Cool." I strongly encourage players to attempt shenanigans. I tend to use the rules as a guideline to keep storytelling consistent and more unpredictable, as opposed to a rigid set of limitations on what characters can and cannot do.
Gameplay details
In Session 0, we will be sure to have a moment to go over any triggers or sources of discomfort players have so I can avoid them during gameplay. I will maintain an open door policy for any player who has concerns during games. I will also provide a post-session talk where layers can bring up any concerns they have.

How will character creation work
PREMADE CHARACTER SHEETS AVAILABLE UPON REQUEST Sheets will be made on D&D Beyond. Characters will start at level 3. Stats are selected using Standard Array. No encumbrance. No banned species or classes from official sourcebooks. Homebrew classes and species are allowed upon approval. My general guideline for Homebrew classes and species is that they need to be chosen for character reasons, not mechanical ones. In other words, if you have a roleplay or backstory idea that doesn't match what's in the rulebooks, awesome. We'll figure out the best way to make it work. If you're trying to find a way to derail the planned campaign and encounters, that's also awesome. I encourage it. I do not aid it.
