How to prepare
You will need a working webcam and mic, and Discord. A DnDBeyond account will be required to play the game. Discord will be used for voice-chat as well as out-of-game discussions and quest/loot tracking. All of these will work in your browser, so no downloads or installation of apps or extensions is required.
What I provide
All game elements—such as maps, combat encounters, dice rolling, and character sheets—will be managed through DnDBeyond and its integrated Maps feature. I bring custom high-quality maps, immersive soundtracks, and a wide array of DnDBeyond content you can use to create your characters. While I adhere to rules-as-written, I wholeheartedly encourage creative thinking. If you have an idea you want to try, just let me know what you want to do, and I’ll find a way to make it work! The rule-of-cool always applies in my games!
Gameplay details
Your comfort and enjoyment are paramount to me. To ensure a safe and inclusive environment, we will implement safety tools at various stages of our game: Session 0: We'll begin with an open discussion where I will highlight any potential triggers that may arise during our campaign. This session allows players to express their boundaries and preferences on how we handle sensitive topics. Pre-Mission Briefings: Before each new mission, I will review any specific triggers related to the upcoming adventure. For example, if a mission involves a potential drowning hazard, I'll inform the group and, if necessary, discuss ways to mitigate this risk. This might include providing potions or equipment that prevent drowning, ensuring everyone's comfort without compromising the adventure. Balancing Challenges: If accommodating a trigger affects the difficulty of a mission, I will find alternative ways to balance the risk, ensuring that the game remains engaging and challenging for all players. By using these safety tools, we create a collaborative and respectful environment where everyone can enjoy the adventure to the fullest. If you have any concerns or preferences, please feel free to share them at any time.
