Devastation | An Egyptian Apocalypse of Undead & Dark Gods

How to prepare

Players will need: -Headphone -Microphone -Discord account -Roll20 account Players can read the rules and create characters ahead of session zero. But I also love the idea of players creating characters during session zero as a group.

What I provide

The Game will feature: —10 pre-made character sheets for optional use —4 custom, original battle maps, w/ additional maps and splash art —A Private Discord Server —VTT using Roll20 —Homebrew ideas welcome!

Gameplay details

During session zero we'll discuss what topics players find interesting and which ones they'd like to establish as lines or veils. I specifically want discuss what types of violence and death (e.g drowning and dismemberment) people are uncomfortable with. Combat and death are big parts of D&D 5e, and this game in particular can get dark because of the apocalyptic setting. So it's important for me to have an understanding of what kind of violence goes too far for my players. After session zero, the list of lines and veils will be available as a handout on Roll20. During play, players are free to use a digital X card whenever they feel the story has become triggering.

How will character creation work

Characters start at Level 14 —Characters get one free feat at level 1 —All officially published WoTC material can be used (following the 2014 Player's handbook and ruleset) —Ability scores will be determined using Standard Array or Point Buy (whichever the table prefers) Character creation will happen during or after session zero. Coming into the session with a character concept in mind is great, but nothing should be finalized until after we've talked as a group. Because of the nature of the campaign some conjuration spells (rope trick, plane shift, Gate etc.) will be off limits.
