About the adventure
📖 Our story begins with our 'soon-to-be-heroes' flat broke and in some trouble in the city of Neverwinter. Whether it's an owed debt, a criminal past, or a lifechanging event, it's time to leave your home town and take on the call to adventure. There's rumours of an eccentric Dwarf looking for a party to escort him to his newly found prospects in Phandalin. 🎲 Come along on a module mash up adventure, combining Lost Mines, Icespire peak, and a heavy dose of homebrew to give these iconic starts a fresh breath of life. We'll be playing with the 2024 ruleset, with older subclasses available as well. The campaign will begin at level 0, before classes, before heroics, together we'll go over the details of how and why you became an adventurer 📕Offering a free first session, as well as a private meeting before the session starts, which will include character creation, party development to link members together and seed backstory hooks, all to get your PC ready to dive into the ongoing story. Rolling for stats with my custom method, allowing for the thrill of rolling for stats without the penalty of rolling poorly. 📚 As the story stands - Strange disappearances, people of all walks of life have gone missing, the city of Neverwinter has enacted a strict curfew, restricting entrance and exit to the city after dark. Bound together by the listed job - escort a wagon of mining supplies to the settlement of Phandalin - Our Heroes are drawn into problems much greater than an escort mission. With a criminal racket with ties to a much greater organization occupying the settlement, strange deformed goblins ambush the nearby roads, and peculiar green shards emanating dangerous magic scattered around the region.

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.
Combat Heavy
“Combat Heavy” games emphasize the combat mechanics within their systems over roleplay or puzzle solving. There are frequent and longer battles with enemies and a greater emphasis on tactical game play.
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.
First session free Session zero and an has already taken place so I do ask all new players to meet with me privately within two hours of the designated start time, or during the following week to roll up your character before we begin. First session will be free. The party so far - Currently Level Three Malaric the Reborn Illusionist Wizard - Suffering memory loss is in search of his past. Raynar the Human Fighter/Cleric - Thrown into a life of mercenary work is haunted by visions of dead god. Ymir the Wood Elf Drakewarden Ranger - Having consumed the meat of a dead Silver Dragon, is now on the run from his past. Arthur the Human Oath of Glory Paladin - A reject of his Noble house is adamant on making a name for himself

How to prepare
💬Having a Discord account for voice 💻Something with a web browser to open the Foundry page - Mobile devices unfortunately run poorly 🌟A friendly team focused attitude 🚫Lone wolfs, Downer Debbies, Rule Lawyers, Homophobes, ANYTHING non-consensual (PVP included)
What I provide
🤖Playing on Foundry VTT & over Discord, I'll be bringing a full integrated soundtrack for background music, custom tokens, maps and handouts. 🎨NPC voices make everything fun. Descriptive combats that are fast moving. Detailed narration to keep you intrigued, and proper player spotlighting to make sure everyone is a main character. 🌟With deep character background connections I'll bring your character to life with motives, hooks, and connections drawing you into the story on a personal level, altering the module as I see fit to better align with the parties playstyle and expectations. 🎲A great understanding of the rules with a few tweaked preferences, all for the players enjoyment.
Gameplay details
Player comfortability is a high priority, with an open door policy, I encourage all players to send me any possible concerns before the game of topics to avoid, I can be quite descriptive with combat, and I also hope no one hesitates to send me a message during game if there is any subject they'd prefer to 'fade to black' on.

How will character creation work
👥Character creation will be during the free privately before the session begins. 📖Primarily leaning towards 2024 rules, older 5e content will be allowed, with some discretion to be modified - Rule of Cool above all else. 💻Using the Foundry VTT web browser app, I run a private server with integrated dice rolling, character sheets, music, maps and tokens.
