[5E] Delicious in Dungeons and Dragons Asynchronous Play by Post
Dungeons & Dragons 5e | Campaign
About the adventure
For Generations the Land has been a place of peace and harmony. The Humans and the Halflings were stewards and farmers of the Fields and Meadows, the Elves and Goblins were the gardeners and wardens of the Wood and River, the Dwarves and Orcs mined and shaped the stones of the Hills and Mountains and the Gnomes and Dragonborn were the custodians and builders of the Great Village. The Celestial King and the Infernal Queen kept the balance of Justice in the Chequered Keep and the Law kept the Land quiet and peaceful. But one day the earth shook, and a Cavern, ancient and old opened in the Hills and Mountains, a Barrow of the forgotten dead rose in the Fields and Meadows, a Swamp bloomed where the Wood and River met and in the Great Village, the fountain in the town square drained and cracked, revealing a Staircase in a crumbling Dark Tower. All led to a strange and alien Dungeon below that had held the Powers of Chaos for ages. Now Chaos was unleashed and the Land was changed forever. A generation has passed, treasures and secrets have been discovered below the Land. The path to greatness lies somewhere in the heart of the Dark Tower for those who seek it. Many have taken up the life of Adventure and delve the depths below for Fortune, Fame and Honour. But for others, the new life and regions that have opened up has created opportunities and lifestyles, the Minerals, Flora and Fauna of this alien ecosystem yielding amazing ingredients and components for clothing, building, crafting… and cooking! Join a band of enterprising Adventurers to seek out the secrets of the Dungeon, and perhaps go hunting for the rarest and most delicious ingredients This game is welcome to people of all backgrounds, genders and orientations. If you have any issues with inclusivity, this may not be the game for you!

This will be a Roleplaying and Resource Management Focused game, with Exploration and Social Challenges as the main pillars of play, where you harvest and hunt the creatures of the dungeon and discover new recipes and live a slice of life in a low stakes fairy tale fantasy setting. Characters must be built in D&D Beyond (I'll send you the campaign link) and linked with Avrae.

Additional details
How to prepare
Please have a decent grasp of English Prose and hopefully enthusiasm for both descriptive paragraphs of images and action, along with a vivid inner life for your characters!
What I provide
Expect daily literate responses, with possibilities for duets and asides that focus on character development and rich descriptions of alien and familiar landscapes within a dreamlike realm of Chaos below the formerly peaceful Land. You'll have access to the full D&D Beyond catalogue and expect reference images to help enhance the text experience.
Gameplay details
Lines and Veils will be established and documented and ooc channels of communication will be used to handle any discussion of sensitive topics. This game should be fairly PG in tone, though the hunting and butchery of fantasy creatures may be present, as well as the risk of death. The other potential for adult content is the potential for romance which can be discussed if the player so chooses and potentially moved into a private channel.
