About the adventure
Embark on an epic journey into the heart of the perilous jungles of Chult in the Tomb of Annihilation campaign! A deadly plague known as the Death Curse is sweeping across the land, bringing despair as it slowly drains the life from those previously revived by magic. Heroes from all corners of the world are called upon to uncover the dark force behind this malevolent affliction. In this land of untamed wilderness, where dinosaurs roam free and ancient ruins hold long-lost secrets, survival is only the beginning. Your quest is not merely to survive but to locate the three fragmented pieces of an ancient and powerful relic—the Shard of Savras. This divine artifact, once belonging to the god of divination, is the only hope of uncovering the true source of the curse. Each part of the relic is hidden deep within the treacherous jungles, guarded by forgotten tribes, deadly beasts, and the spectral echoes of Chult's grim past. As you piece together this relic, you will unveil the path to the tomb of a long-dead tyrant whose sinister influence lingers, threatening to consume all life. Prepare to face relentless challenges, forge uneasy alliances, and delve into a mystery that blurs the line between life and death. The fate of countless souls hangs in the balance, and only the bravest can hope to end the Death Curse once and for all. Will you answer the call and become the hero Chult desperately needs?

About me
Salutations and roll for Initiative! I have been playing D&D 5e since Curse of Strahd came out and haven't stopped. Four years ago I became a professional DM and started my own online server and have been running my pay to play games ever since. I'm a fan of rule of cool, enjoy spending my freetime finding new battlemaps and writing up side quests for my players, I also enjoy applying music to help set the theme and use Kenku FM for music and sfx. The one thing I don't do is coddle me players, I keep the stakes high and PC death is a real possibility, so if your looking for a challenge and don't want your DM to hand hold you through encounters then I'm your DM. If you want to hear from my players you're more then welcome to speak with them too!

Creating your character
New players start at the current group's level, and get an unpaid Session 0 to discuss and collaborate on character creation an to discuss the campaign and players. Stats are done by rolling 4d6 or taking Standard Array if you roll poorly in Roll20, I also allow taking half the hit dice +1 if you roll lower then that on hit dice for level ups. Anything published by WotC is allowed but I also have some homebrew available.
Join us in an epic and perilous Tomb of Annihilation campaign where danger, mystery, and ancient secrets abound! This adventure is perfect for players who enjoy a thrilling blend of combat, exploration, and immersive roleplay. Seasoned adventurers who have experience navigating complex narratives and challenging encounters are preferred, as we are currently at Level 13. However, if you’re ready to dive into the depths of Chult and think you can rise to the challenge, you’re welcome to join! Sessions will be 4 hours long, held weekly on Roll20 with voice chat on Discord. New characters will begin at level 13, and we’ll be using content from officially published sourcebooks, with some homebrew options available. A free session zero will be held for new players to discuss character creation, catch up on the ongoing adventure, and address any questions you might have. Prepare to venture into the deadly jungles of Chult, gather the three pieces of the ancient relic known as the Shard of Savras, and uncover the source of the death curse. Will you survive the treacherous tombs and deadly encounters, or will the curse claim you? The fate of many rests in your hands—are you ready to embark on this deadly quest?

What DM Deadman brings to the table
I have a paid Roll20 account so all the benefits of a Pro subscription using their API features. I have a subscription to CzePeku and Neutral Party battlemaps, Kenku FM for music & sfx, Discord for voice and community with other players in my games. For myself I am a tough but fair GM, I like to run challenging encounters that has a risk of PC death. I like to keep the rules light and approve of improv and thinking outside the box ideas. I enjoy doing character voices, creating boss mechanics and side quest activities.
