About the adventure
Tomb of Annihilation is a deadly, exploration-focused campaign set in my custom world—a fresh take on one of D&D’s most infamous adventures. A mysterious Death Curse is sweeping across the land, killing victims permanently. Hired by the dying noble Lady Syndra Silvane, your party must brave the dinosaur-infested jungles of Chult to uncover the source and put an end to it. You’ll face challenging combat, ancient puzzles, and a massive, trap-filled dungeon that pushes your party to the edge. This is a high-stakes, no-resurrection adventure where survival depends on teamwork, strategy, and quick thinking. Expect rich roleplay, collaborative storytelling, and a world that responds to your choices. New and experienced players are welcome—if you’re looking for a gritty, story-driven campaign with real consequences, this is your jungle to conquer. Let’s roll some dice!

About me
Looking for a Dungeon Master who can elevate your game to new heights? Look no further—I'm Alex, and I'm the DM you've been waiting for. D&D, to me, is more than just dice and rules—it's a living, evolving story where my players are just as much the authors as I am. Using immersive voices, ambient music, and custom maps, I bring every game to life. But it’s not just about the world I create; it’s about how we build it together. I give my players full agency within an open sandbox, with events unfolding in my world regardless of the party's involvement. Your character isn’t just a stat block—it's a part of this world. I work closely with players to craft backstories that are woven into the fabric of my campaigns, often driving personal goals alongside the main plot. Whether you’re after a deep, character-driven journey or a wild ride full of high-jinks and epic moments, my games focus on rich storytelling, immersive roleplay, and combat encounters that keep things dynamic and exciting. I love making my players feel like heroes of legend, and I'm always open to bending the rules for an unforgettable narrative moment or a jaw-dropping "wow" factor. With my relaxed, fun-loving style, I ensure an inclusive and memorable experience where everyone at the table feels like they truly belong. If you're looking for a Dungeon Master who can turn every session into an unforgettable adventure, let’s roll some dice and create something epic together!

Creating your character
Characters will be made on d&d beyond in a dedicated campaign. I will share access to the several books i own for character creation options. I ask players to bring a character concept at a minimum and during session 0 we will finalize characters. We will use point buy for stat generation.
What to expect
Preparing for the session
Players should come to session 0 with a working mic and having joined the discord server and D&D beyond campaign. I ask though not mandatory players use webcams and read through my homebrew rules I’ve posted to the discord server. Finally players should be prepared and ready for some fun!
What Darkmoon Gaming brings to the table
With nearly a decade of experience as both a DM and a player, I bring a wealth of knowledge and dedication to creating an unforgettable experience. To enhance our campaign, I’ll be utilizing a dedicated D&D server on Discord, providing a central hub for all campaign-related discussions and resources. Through D&D Beyond, I will share access to all the D&D books I own, ensuring players have everything they need to fully engage with the game. To elevate the atmosphere, I will also incorporate immersive music via Discord, helping to set the mood for key moments throughout our sessions. For visual aids, I will use customized maps on Owlbear rodeo to bring the world to life, along with personalized tokens for each player to represent your characters on the battlefield. All of these elements are designed to immerse you in the adventure and ensure that every session feels dynamic, engaging, and memorable.

How Darkmoon Gaming creates a safe table
Session 0 will be held free of charge and will be our first session, where I can discuss expectation, both mine and the players, we will then Our first session will serve as Session 0, where we’ll set expectations—both mine and the players'. I will send players a rpg consent checklist and will ask all player to complete the checklist by session 1 i will compile a master consent checklist and post that in the campaign chat on discord to stay available to all players. We will then start by discussing safety tools i use to ensuring everyone feels comfortable. I’ll also introduce the homebrew rules I use in my campaigns. Next, we’ll finalize character creation together and address any last-minute concerns or adjustments, making sure everyone is ready to dive into the adventure. During gameplay, I’ll incorporate 1-2 breaks depending on session length and player preferences. I also have an open table policy—if a player needs to step away or pause a scene, that’s completely okay, and they can return when they’re ready. I aim to create an environment where everyone feels safe and comfortable, so I work to avoid any content that might make players feel uncomfortable. I have a Stars and Wishes channel on my discord server always available. Lastly, I’ll host a debriefing after each session, gathering feedback on the campaign and the session’s flow so we can keep improving the experience together
