About the adventure
**Discounted by 10% to adjust for new sales tax** Create and play, your hero, your way, and tell their story in this popular adventure. (Heroes have additional feat, magic item and high, server specific stat spread) *Play by post that wont fade away, active since Jan 2025* Humblewood is besieged from new threats to the Wood. What Tales will you tell? Humblewood’s history and lore are as vast as the great forest itself. As scholars scramble to collect the tales of the Wood onto parchment, they discover that a single volume was not going to be enough to document it all. This is how the tome of the Humblewood Tales, came to be... This campaign will be a Play-by-Post (PbP - asynchronous) format, hosted on my Discord server. This means that you can post at your leisure, no annoying scheduling issues and the game is compatible with most devices, including pc, tablets or phones. I consistently respond to posts within 24 hours, making 1-3 daily contributions, and I hope for a similar level of commitment from players. Any deviations from this schedule will be communicated in advance, and these expectations can be adjusted based on player preferences.

About me
I write D&D modules, I run games, I write code and, most importantly, I love D&D. Actually most TTRPG, RPG and board games to be honest. I am a player, a GM, and a moderator on multiple discord servers, primarily I offer text based D&D 5e games. Check it out… Are you seeking a 5E game to develop your character, to be a hero, without the challenges of scheduling? A play by post that won't fade away and WILL allow you to reach your characters full potential? I facilitate play by post campaigns, catering to one to six players. I will completely customise the game to suit you and your characters, using either homebrew or published materials, depending on your preference, and at any desired levels. We will discuss the essence of D&D adventures with you, and I will craft a world tailored to your specifications. Do you enjoy immersive role-playing? We will engage in scenarios that will delve into your characters life through role-playing. Prefer engaging in combat where you can wield your preferred weapon with fervour or drop Fireballs at every opportunity? Then get your long rest in and brace your selves for some brutality. Or perhaps strike a balance between role-playing and combat, all is possible. I organise play by post games using Discord and Avrae for combat. I consistently respond to posts within 24 hours, making 2-3 daily contributions, and I expect the same level of commitment from players. Any deviations from this schedule will be communicated in advance, and these expectations can be adjusted based on customer preferences

Creating your character
Characters will be discussed on the server during the "Session 0", which is essentially the time before we get started. They will have specific backgrounds to meet the layers of the story being told. They will start at current level in title. I have a modified dice roll system that allows for a better spread of stats. We can create them together or all be yourself, and backstory detail is up to the player.
The story so far; The party have found The Humblewood is succumbing to the fire creatures and bandits, they have been enlisted to help remove the threat. They cleared some of the Winnowing Reach saved Alderheart and cleared a bandit camp. What is next...? Will they save the forest? Join us to help sway the outcome! Please note this is Play By Post (PbP) D&D Asynchronous Play By Post campaign by text over discord server. Play is ongoing, session times are for charging purposes.
What to expect
Preparing for the session
The only preparation required will be to join the discord server and get to know each other a bit, a small primer of pre reading, create characters on DnD Beyond and link them into the server. There is no requirement for any particular device as Beyond is on a browser and Discord is an application, so just an internet enabled device will suffice.
What Garry brings to the table
I am an excitable GM and ready to create a story and lead the adventure where you want to go. I will provide the hosted server access and link to resources on DnD Beyond, allowing access to most content. I maintain the bots, code and all the requirements to make the server function well and support the gameplay. I own the published versions, but may adapt and creatc my own maps, characters, story, world, npc and even some monsters. You, the player, please bring your creativity, RP skills, willingness to use discord/avrae and, above all, patience and commitment to playing in the PBP style.
Homebrew rules
Heroes have additional feat, magic item and high, server specific stat spread. Flanking rules. Potions are bonus to self.

Safety
How Garry creates a safe table
To ensure the safety and comfort of all players, I employ the following measures: 1. Before the main game begins, I hold a session zero via discord to discuss concerns and establish boundaries. 2. I utilise a safety checklist to ensure that all players are aware of potential triggers and sensitive topics. 3. During the game, I run personal channels private to that player and the GM, allowing players to communicate their comfort levels or any other issues. This campaign will be conducted as Asynchronous Play by Post, posting via text as and when you have time. We will use Discord for all communications, DND Beyond for character sheets and resources and the Avrae bot for dice rolling and combat. I use as much description in my text as possible to make the game as immersive as possible, while keeping short enough to be able to read in short bursts, which is the way for PBP. Organised Discord channels, linked to your DnD Beyond character makes for swifter progress in the story and prevents stagnation.
