About the adventure
Atop the mountain of Drachen’s Peak, Count Rhodar von Glauer lairs in Shadowkeep, a fortress infused with infernal magic. The vampire lord received the keep in a bargain struck when he sacrificed an ancient dragon to an archdevil. Undead lurk within Shadowkeep’s desecrated halls, while a contingent of vampires plan a war to free Rhöl from imperial tyranny. An alarming number of villagers have been disappearing at night, and multiple witnesses claim the victims were lured into a carriage driven by a headless coachman. After your party hear these tales, the same coach approaches you on the road at night.

About me
Header art by Xy https://twitter.com/xylavie Howdy there! I am a professional actor with experience in both voice-over as well as musical theatre! My hobbies outside of ttrpgs include video games, and singing. I've completed 9 campaigns (five modules and four level 1-20 campaigns), ran 700+ sessions online and in person, and I have 6,000+ hours on Roll20 since 2018. A taste of my voice acting range: https://www.kevincouto.com/ A feel of my tables: https://youtu.be/_zBgfGHD35w My Stream Clone Wars Campaign: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLnhAe1iC6P5AaXONG1s_6BQY6QVW2vC2F I started playing tabletops with D&D around late 2017 and fell in love with it. As time has gone on, I've learned my way around more systems and my friends were encouraging me to dive into DMing for them, and here we are now! I currently run a Star Wars 5e stream campaign set during the Clone Wars called "Revenge of the Crit" that's over 90 episodes and counting. My favorite thing about DMing is being able to collaborate and come up with a compelling and fun story with a variety of players. It's also a great outlet for me to practice all these voices and storytelling. I am all about making a campaign experience not only suited for the group but will also leave everyone satisfied. Most of my experience running and playing is with either D&D 5e or Star Wars 5e so either of those systems would be the systems I use for the games I offer. I look forward to sharing memories with you at the table! ❤️

Creating your character
Anything from the official source books is fine, using 2024 rules 3rd party home brew rules are pohibited without my approval. Starting Level is 13. If you have a character in mind already you may use that if I approve it. For generating stats, you may use either standard array, point buy, or one of the additional following options: 7·9·11·12·15·18 8·9·11·13·15·17 5·6·8·16·17·18 7·9·10·14·16·16 Youre character also gets - 5,000 gp plus 1d10 × 250 gp (can be used for healing potions, spell components, and basic Equipment) - Two common magic items - Three uncommon magic items - One rare magic item - Normal Starting Equipment Backstories (If you wish to have them for oneshots, they are not required) can be however long you wish, preferably not more than 2 paragraphs. A google doc, word doc, or however you wish to write it, long as is it pinned in our personal DMs for me to revisit should I need to. For HP you may take the average or roll for it. I allow rerolls on 1s and 2s

What Kevin Couto brings to the table
I will provide maps for when combat is occurring, at all other times we will use theatre of the mind. I also use a music bot to add further immersion in various scenes. I also provide quality voice performances to enhance the characters, monsters, and environment.
Homebrew rules
- Drinking a potion for yourself can be an action or bonus action. Force feeding a potion to an ally is an action. - Any healing from spells or potions outside of combat is automatically maxed. - Flanking grants a +2 bonus to the attack rolls, not advantage on attack rolls. You cannot gain the flanking bonus if your adjacent ally has a negative condition. - Silvery Barbs and Simulacrum are banned from use. - Conjur Minor Elementals cannot be upcast - We use the 2014 counterspell with the alteration of the final line from the 2024 counterspell. - The Legacy version of Inflict Wounds is ok to use with 2024 rules. - Stealth checks are made at a point in time when you can be caught, not before. - Multiclassing prerequisites can be ignored. - Any 3rd party homebrew material is not allowed without express permission. - Milestone leveling.
