🔥 Hoard of the Dragon Queen: A perilous Asynch PBP 🐉
Who's going to be better than YOU to save the world, dismantle the Cult of the Dragon, and defeat the Dragon Queen—a goddess!? 😱
About the adventure
✨ New players welcome! ✨ 🤺 Why did the cultist bring a ladder to the dragon queen's hoard? He heard the treasure was on another level. And just for that joke, some cultists deserve to die. Come kill'em while Spanish Flea by Herb Alpert plays in the back. Who's going to be better than YOU to save the world, dismantle the Cult, and defeat the Dragon Queen!? 😱 Answer the call, become a legend, and kick the dragon queen's ass! The Cult's threat of annihilation has become so dire that never before has the need for heroes been so desperate. No matter if you're a small kenku with only 3 words to say, or the dumbest barbarian in the history of roleplay—if you laughed with the joke above, then YOU are the perfect fit! Join for an adventure filled with scaly enemies, lying thieves, terrible dad-jokes, draconic mysteries, and an absurd amount of gold! 🐉

About me
🌟 Hi! I’m Nina, a Chilean Dungeon Master with over 7 years of experience running Dungeons & Dragons 5e. In that time, I’ve crafted countless stories, cities, characters, and worlds—each tailored to bring excitement, creativity, and memorable moments to the table. Whether you’re brand new to the game or a seasoned adventurer, I aim to create a welcoming space full of thrilling encounters, collaborative storytelling, and laughter. I especially love helping beginners learn the ropes and discover the magic of roleplay. 💬 With me as your DM, you can expect: - A supportive, friendly, and flexible game master - A focus on your goals, character arcs, and fun - A safe and inclusive table for everyone - A sprinkle of silliness, when appropriate! I run games in English or Spanish (¡también hablo español!), so if you're looking for an adventure in either language, you're in the right place. 🎲 Kindness, camaraderie, and creativity are my guiding stars. Let’s roll some dice and tell some amazing stories together!

Where do I even begin? Nina is an absolutely fantastic person both in the game setting and out. Being able to play with her in a Play-by-Post setting has been nothing short of amazing. Awesome visual aid? Check ✔️. Crazy immersion and creative storytelling? Check ✔️. Goes hard to tell the story you want?? Absolutely! If you're looking for a new DM, but are nervous at the quality for the right price? Nina is it, no question about it.
I've played a private duet PbP campaign with Nina, and I can confidently say this is her passion. The amount of prep she has and homework for initial onboarding has blown most of the other games I've seen out of the water. If there was any idea or problem, she made a way to help fufill or solve it. While the campaign was enjoyable, my lifestyle and habits have made it difficult to keep sending replies, so I've decided to step away from the campaign while on good terms. If you decide to join her tables, be prepared for her to cook up what you genuinely wish from a PbP campaign, and enjoy yourself!
From voice acting to to rules expertise, Nina does it all superbly! Here's a few things that stood out for this player who's been around since AD&D. Big treat in how much of a nerdy expert she is in all things roll20. I am talking special effects on maps, incredible lighting, the enemies have health bars that surround their tokens! IN addition, the campaign is organized in such a sweet way that our characters / backstories have been threaded seamlessly into the HotDQ campaign and each other's histories. We've only just had the third session, and I am already personally vested in the outcomes (no spoilers). We also have a real good feel for the area/ setting as though it's a place we've visited in IRL. The immersion here is top notch with maps, lighting, music and the brought-to-life NPCs. The ludonarrative is compellingly participatory, so much so the other PCs and I keep chatting about it all week. Seriously people, this is the closest I've felt to childhood Saturday morning cartoons my whole adult life. And here, we actually get to be the characters! Not just pretend to be them all week with our friends planning what could happen. Now we make it happen. The battles are pretty difficult, and she rolls in front of players so there's no holding back. Be prepared with a secondary character, this is real D&D with high stakes and compelling stories. You'll be fiending for more and more. Luckily she Loves the game so much she just keeps on giving. If you book her, help us make sure she does get enough sleep! :3

Character creation
Creating your character
🎲 For beginner players, we will allow only material in the Player's Handbook to keep it simple for them at character creation. 🎲 If you're an experienced player who's able to create a character on their own, you may use any official D&D5e book. 🎲 You'll have one free feat at level 1. 🎲 We'll use the Heroic Array for stats: 17, 16, 15, 14, 12, 10. 🎲 We will use 2024 content. 🎲 If you're new and don't know what all this means: don't worry, I'll explain in session 0 and help you through it.

What Nina brings to the table
🎭 You can expect fun and emotive roleplaying scenes, especially with different NPCs. 🔮 I take into account the characters' backgrounds for the main story. Your past story will be important, and will help you become a legend! 💠 I prefer the rule of cool, especially if it allows for a good time and fun—that's always my main goal. ⚔️ I will always try to challenge players with puzzles or combat, but I will never add combat that is designed to wipe you out. I'm here to help you achieve your goals! 🎲 I will always teach new players how to play the game.
