The Pyrell Expedition☠️🌴⚓🐸 [D&D5e, All Welcome]
Dungeons & Dragons 5e | Campaign
About the adventure
Ahoy! Welcome to a short roleplay-focused, player driven, privateering adventure. All levels of experience are welcome. We'll be starting at level 5 using milestone leveling, and will be running a session 0 to build characters and fit them into the homebrewed world. Speaking of which... ☠️🌴⚓🐸 You have the honour of being commissioned by Lord Estrion Pyrell to aid in an expedition into uncharted seas. You shall set out search of an ancient Dwarven Ruin, said to hold a powerful weapon that could turn the tide of a centuries-long war. There will be great danger involved, and even greater rewards in store for those who can make it out alive. You find yourself in the independent city of Dragonswing, signing on to this expedition - perhaps for gold, perhaps for secrets, or perhaps simply because you need to leave town quick. All you need know is Lord Pyrell has what you need, and an old temple and a tribe of frog people can't be too much trouble .... right? May Artemis light your path...
Game style
Roleplay Heavy
“Roleplay Heavy” games place the focus on the story, the characters, and the world they live within, and tend to lean hard into the various roleplaying elements of the game. These games will frequently find the party talking with NPCs, exploring the personal elements of their backstories, or even having emotional moments around the camp fire.
Rule of Cool (RoC)
“Rule of Cool” emphasizes creative story beats over sticking to a system’s rules as written. Players have the ability to push the limits of the rules or even break core rule mechanics at times if the Game Master thinks it is interesting, fun, or cool enough.
⚓The Pyrell Expedition is a short D&D 5e (2014) game starting at 5th level. 🐸If you're looking for an entertaining and unpredictable campaign run by a professional British voice actor, you're in the right place. ⚓ We're hoping to run our first session on 16/06/25, or as soon as we get enough players. Hope to see you there :) 🐸 Once we're ready to start, we'll hold a session 0 to get to know each other, create characters and test them out, see to last minute safety tools, and develop relationships between the characters and the world.

How to prepare
Before session 0, all you need is a webcam, a mic, and a discord account, and somewhere to create your character - a paper sheet, d&d beyond, up to you. Before session 1, you'll need a roll20 account, an image for your character token, and some understanding of at least the rules that pertain directly to your character (their race, class and background for example). Feel free to message me with any questions :)
What I provide
🐸I encourage in-character roleplaying, player choice, and creative choices. Expect an engaging story that you have a say in - give me a backstory with a couple of colourful characters in it, and they'll more than likely crop up somewhere in the adventure. 🌴I run the game on Discord for speaking and Roll20 for combat. 🐸I make liberal use of in-character dialogue and encourage players to do the same. I also encourage players to argue their cases for things like unorthodox skill checks, however ask that they respect my final ruling. 🌴I use background music for those who want it, but one of the reasons I run games on discord is that it can be turned down or off individually. 🐸I can supply pdfs of all core rulebooks and some snazzy character sheets. 🌴And, finally, I'm a professional voice actor, so expect high-quality narration in terms of both content and sound quality - check my DM profile's Youtube link for some sample narration!
Gameplay details
Session 0 will involve character creation, and a discussion of any triggers players might have for one's own character and the game in general. The game itself will largely be story driven, but that doesn't mean you won't have think tactically and rely on your companions when you do get into combat. Fun is what we're all here for, and sometimes nothing is more fun than a well-applied fireball.

How will character creation work
The one thing that truly unifies your team is that they're willing to join the expedition, although they may well have their own reasons for doing so. Eccentric archaeologists, enterprising sailors, undercover spies and wanted criminals needing to skip town fast might all find themselves involved in this adventure. We'll be starting at Level 5, using roll4drop1 stats and milestone leveling. All WOTC official expansions are fine with the following exceptions, almost all for lore reasons: No Duergar No Guns and Gunpowder (Artificers are fine if flavoured away from this) Most reasonable homebrew is fine, but run it by me first before hinging your entire character on it. We will also be running a session 0 to go further into character creation and help anyone who needs it to get their head around the numbers.
