What I provide
I provide detailed maps, roll 20 landscapes and battlemaps for the game. I will be creating tokens using HeroForge, so please send me a link to your creation once you have one made :) For this game, I will be using rules as written frequently for new players, but rules may be improvised on the fly for flow of play. My GMing style leans heavily into immersive roleplay heavy storytelling, but I will be putting in a good mix of puzzles and combat this time so new players get a feel for all the neat aspects of the game. TABLE OF RULES (ALL GAMES) 1) If a question regarding the rules comes up and the DM states a ruling, do not argue with it. 2) If you do not use a character voice (which is not a problem) please state if your character is speaking to prevent confusion. 3) No politics at the table. 4) No sexual content or scenes are allowed. You can have a character who is risqué, but I do not do sex scenes or the like in my games (fade to black or described). 5) For Charisma skill checks, ask to make the roll and declare what you are attempting to do, then, once the result is generated, declare what you attempted to say. This simply prevents backtracking dialogue or excellent and persuasive dialogue from being wasted.
