Zeina: World of Dead Sun

Dungeons & Dragons 5e | Campaign

About the adventure

Ziena: World of Dead Sun is a DnD 5e game chock full of interesting characters, dynamic combat, political intrigue, and modern fantasy sensibilities! In a world of constant change, miracles, and tragedy, Ziena is a world to laugh, cry, and fight for yourself, for others, or for nothing at all! ~In the world of Ziena, things have never been static or the same after that fateful day. After what should have been the end of the world, the end of 15,000 years of history with the death of the sun god Astera; the world was only saved thanks to several adventurers and the god of magic Ozzyostus, who took his place until such time where they are not needed, turning the sun black from within. With the people in disarray, the planet 60 years later, is on the brink of political chaos in its 16th century styled civilization.~ ~However, the five adventurers made their own country, as if from no where a large land sprouted from the ocean, the size of Alaska. From this land they made their own country, a singular large city that dwarfs all others as a city state, its technology and arcano-tech centuries ahead, called Valorum. The city they made would be one full of adventure, progress, and work for all, or at least that's what they promised.~ ~Valorum is a representative democracy, each of the 16 districts having a governor that runs each. The 16 governors make up a council to decide on national issues alongside the founders. Otherwise, the districts act as autonomous entities making up a larger whole. This is where our story begins.~ Ziena is a vast and rich world, with over 15,000 years of in universe lore and history, with maybe even more under the surface. However, none of that history and lore matters without the characters that inhabit it. Do not let the potential history stop you from getting creative, all characters and potential ideas can at the very least be entertained if not fully integrated into the game, be as creative or derivative as you want! All additional lore of the world will be given in either long form or summery at player query. The only rules are very simple: This game is LGBTQ+ friendly. If you are not ok with that, please look elsewhere. Please respect all the other players in things that might make them uncomfortable, we're all trying to have fun so please try to make this an environment where everyone feels safe and happy Please be willing to engage with the game and the other players, no one is an island!

Jaiden is a great GM and a great worldbuilder. The game doesn't feel on rails or like you could swap out characters with functionally no difference, they're always engaged and making sure the characters have things specific to them to do. Each session is an event and the party never knows what's going to happen. Seriously a lot of things have come out of left field in THE BEST way possible. This game is of the best DnD experiences I've had in a while!

There has yet to be a session played with Jaiden where my jaw wasn't on the floor on MULTIPLE occasions. Absolutely INCREDIBLE in every aspect; sets up every scene so well, great and unique voices, creative, top tier world building, etc. When you leave your players wishing it was already next week for the next session, you're doing something right! 100/10

I could name a plethora of reasons why this is the best DM for you- they are the best DM I've ever had! They set the scene well, are great with immersion, are inclusive and respectful to anyone and everyone, they know the rules inside and out, and they are just overall one of the coolest and nicest DMs I've ever had the pleasure of knowing. 10/10, would recommend!!!

How to prepare

Players should have the ability to speak via Discord, make their own characters (help can be provided), and a good attitude! Please also read the rules before joining the game!

What I provide

I will bring my own dice and world for the game to take place in. I will also be providing combat maps, enemy and npc tokens, and speaking for all characters.

Gameplay details

The game is one of modern day problems and solutions, all safety issues can be discussed in private or as a group with myself and the rest of the players, to individuals needs, which will be upheld with no question. Session 0 will be mainly fleshing out the world and characters to players satisfaction, as the game will be intensely customized to each players plot and story, those are the stories that interest me.

How will character creation work

Characters will start at lvl 3, as that is when most DnD classes come into their own in my opinion, with rolled hp. Stats will be rolled, with one stat at 18 and one at 8 to encourage having strengths and weaknesses. You also get one feat of your choice to make your characters feel more you! All races and classes will be available, if you wish to use homebrew races or subclasses let me know so i can approve or deny them!
