About the adventure

Hundreds of years ago, a mysterious cataclysm destroyed almost all of civilization. Nature has thrived in its absence. Discover what happened and how to save the world before history repeats itself! This DnD 5e (2014) campaign is heroic, high fantasy, high magic, and high adventure. I craft campaign plots and worldbuild based on your characters. If you are looking for a campaign that is truly custom made just for you and your party, and you love seeing your characters and their actions shape the world around them, this game is for you! Explore deep forests, snowy peaks, volcanic mountains, arid deserts, lush rainforests, and strange floating sky islands. Only three cities survived the cataclysm, each devoting themselves to a different ideal. Concordia is a city devoted to knowledge, full of libraries and archives. Incantatum devoted themselves to the arcane, lifting their city into the sky using powerful magics. Corpus Fortunae is a sprawling city of commerce and trade. There are also small settlements scattered across the land where people attempt to carve out a place in the world and rebuild. My games use Discord and Roll20. I love teaching players to use Roll20 and Discord so don't hesitate to join because of lack of experience! I create highly immersive experiences including voice acting, thematic music, engaging background images, portraits for all NPCs, and custom-made maps, tokens, effects, monsters, and other visual aids. My games are sandbox worlds based on and crafted for your characters and their backstories, decisions, and actions. My games and style are heavily influenced by Dimension 20 and Critical Role. Come join me in a truly epic adventure made just for you!

About me

Hello, I‘m Em! I love crafting custom campaigns and worlds for my players, collaborative storytelling and roleplay, and most importantly creating a safe and comfortable environment for everyone at my table! I have been GMing for 6 years. I aim to create highly immersive experiences including portraits for all NPCs, voice acting, engaging background images, thematic music, and custom-made maps, tokens, and visual aids. I love collaborating with my players. I am always down to read and discuss backstory, I encourage players to help build and shape the world, and to have a lot of fun role playing together! In my non-rpg life, I’ve worked as a trainer, peer counselor, and tutor. I have experience working with people of many backgrounds, teaching and facilitating groups. I value inclusivity and do not allow any bigotry at my tables. I utilize safety tools and encourage open communication. I am also available for GM consulting sessions!

Character creation

Creating your character

- Standard Array or Point Buy for stats - 2014 rules - Most official WotC material is welcome. - Feel free to use Tasha's Custom Origin rules and other optional rules from Tasha's Cauldron of Everything. - When creating your character, make sure they could have a reason to adventure with the party. Please no evil characters in heroic campaigns. - When levelling up, if you roll below the average for HP- you can take the average instead. I'm happy to help you craft a character and help bring your hero to life together! I encourage players to bring their own unique ideas and creativity to their character's backstory. I then craft the world and story around the players characters. I can also make a pre-generated character sheet if you'd like to just jump in. I will have a channel in the campaign's Discord server where players can discuss character creation and I set up private chats for each player so you can speak directly with me about your character. We will create character sheets using Roll20 before your first session. If you have any difficulties making a character sheet on Roll20, I am happy to help you. You are also welcome to make a character sheet in another way and I can input it to Roll20 for you. Or you can make your sheet on D&D Beyond and use the Beyond20 extension.

The current party

The party is now at level 5! We have an elf wizard, an elf druid, a dragonborn cleric, and a 3rd-party dinosaur race ranger/rogue.

What to expect

Preparing for the session

- Working Microphone - Stable Internet Connection - Roll20 Account - Discord Account - Working Webcam (optional) I prefer everyone to be on video chat on Discord as I think it really adds to the game to see each other but it's not required (and it helps with accidental interrupting and other webcam meeting awkwardness). Character sheets and rolling will be on Roll20 along with music and visuals to immerse you in the game. If you prefer D&DBeyond for character sheets, you can use the Beyond20 extension to use it for the Roll20 campaign. I do ask players to have a basic understanding of the rules or to have read the basic rules of dnd before session 0: https://www.dndbeyond.com/sources/dnd/basic-rules-2014?srsltid=AfmBOop1S7R6uqnB5rWRiZdVLhDdQbZalUz2i7z8pNqZ5z4fsk03qWn5

What Em brings to the table

I create highly immersive experiences including voice acting, engaging background images, thematic music, making custom tokens and art for your PCs, portraits for all NPCs, and custom-made maps, tokens, effects, monsters, and other visual aids. My games often have a focus on roleplay and exploration but I tailor games to the group and am happy to balance puzzles and combat in that mix however the group prefers! I play by the rule of cool and love narrative Nat 20s and 1s. I have a firm grasp of the rules but I'm also flexible with what makes the best story and experience. I offer a paid Roll20 account and my expertise with both Roll20 and Discord. Although Roll20 does not offer some character options (such as Genasi or Tortles), I am easily able to manually add anything not immediately available on the VTT. I am happy to teach how to use Roll20 and/or input all the character sheet information for you.

Safety

How Em creates a safe table

I prioritize fun, inclusivity, respectful interaction, and fostering a creative and cooperative atmosphere. To ensure a safe and comfortable environment for all players, I use safety tools. I have all players fill out a brief survey of Lines, Veils, and expectations before we start playing. I then share the anonymised results with the group before session 0. Session 0 is free and where we will discuss expectations. I utilize the X card and encourage players to message me privately at any time. I also do check-ins after sessions. There is no sexual assault, homophobia, racism, sexism, genocide, transphobia, or explicitly described sex in my games. (I have also been told my games are good for people with Aphantasia or who have difficulty with theater of the mind, because of my heavy use of visuals).
