About the adventure
* New player friendly * Many opportunities to role play * An old Dungeon Master who has played every edition * Sound effects and Ambient Background to heighten your fun * Combat, Puzzles and Mysteries Experience all the content of every published Adventure from Dungeons and Dragons! You start by accepting an unassuming role of Caravan Escort, possibly meeting others who have made the same career choice. Along the way you learn of rumors and other tales concerning Dragons, Devils and Demons, Ghosts and Abominations that bring a chill to your bones. Set before you are "Shattered Obelisk", "Shadow of the Dragon Queen", "Descent into Avernus", "Dungeon of the Mad Mage". All of these Adventures, and more, are there for you, choose the path and your characters destiny. The village ahead starts your journey. Accept the challenge! All of the Adventures are arranged with their first Quests in parallel. Play some or all then expand one or more paths. Progression is XP based with additional merit for non-combat activities. Unknown to you, Intrigue and Danger surround every step you take. The world moves on every hour according to its own agenda. You will encounter many NPCs; some may be shopkeepers or tailors or blacksmiths. They all carry information that may or may not be valuable to you. If you can interact with them, you may glean their secrets! Your interactions, all the ones you choose to take that is, guide your invisible path along the way to whatever awaits you. Evil creatures of great power work their own plans, as well as good creatures of equal power. Who will you join and who will you choose to oppose? The campaign is never a "railroad". It is a matrix of paths, and it will be up to you to determine with one(s) you will take.
Game style
Rules as Written (RaW)
Games that are ran “Rules as Written” emphasize realism and stick to the letter of the rules, allowing players to explore creative solutions while still operating under a consistent rule set. Players have the ability to utilize the rules in creative ways to create awesome characters and moments in the game.
Dungeon Crawl
A “Dungeon Crawl” is a scenario where players navigate a dungeon or labyrinth-like environment for the entirety of the adventure. It emphasizes battling monsters, collecting loot, and avoiding traps to survive to the end!
Combat Heavy
“Combat Heavy” games emphasize the combat mechanics within their systems over roleplay or puzzle solving. There are frequent and longer battles with enemies and a greater emphasis on tactical game play.
Theater of the Mind
“Theater of the Mind” uses little to no visuals for scene settings and combat. Instead, the narrative imagery comes from the Game Master’s descriptions and character action and movement comes from Players’ descriptions.
Rule of Cool (RoC)
“Rule of Cool” emphasizes creative story beats over sticking to a system’s rules as written. Players have the ability to push the limits of the rules or even break core rule mechanics at times if the Game Master thinks it is interesting, fun, or cool enough.
This Campaign uses the 2024 Ruleset only! This is easy! Walk your way through character creation and learn how to use Fantasy Grounds Unity. Get your first Quest and investigate happenings in the Village Cemetary. Fight Skeletons and Zombies that refuse to stay buried, possibly discovering treasures.

How to prepare
The Demo version of Fantacy Grounds, Discord and a working microphone are all that would be necessary. A notebook with questions would be advisable in order to make the best use of time during gameplay.
What I provide
I will provide a private Discord Server for the voice chat meeting room and the Fantasy Grounds Server, including all supporting modules. I am not a professional writer nor actor though I will do my best to be both. Sessions are expected to run weekly, on an agreed upon day of the week and time.
Gameplay details
Character Creation is accomplished in a separate, Player/DM session. Standard Array or Point-Buy for Abilities. The Character Wizard will quickly allow you to create the character you want, and the creation of a second character is highly recommended.
