About the adventure
Greetings everyone and welcome to this virtual tabletop game, this time we are going to spend a lot of fun time exploring dungeons, interacting with a lot of NPCs and fighting some fantasy creatures in the surrounding region of the far north of Forgotten Realms. This campaign is for 4-6 players running from levels 1-12 using the Icewind Dale module set, Which begins at Ten-Towns, leading into all región of Icewind Dale, if the party wants to continue it until the very end; and, this adventure is expected to last about 8 months to a year with a 3-3.5 hour session per week. Sneak Peek North of the Spine of the World and west of the towering Reghed Glacier is a frigid expanse few dare to explore, let alone inhabit. This icy land of windswept tundra recently became locked in a perpetual, dark winter without reprieve. Auril the Frostmaiden, the divine embodiment of winter's fury, has withdrawn to this cold corner of the world to live among mortals. Further, she has cast a terrible spell over Icewind Dale, to the detriment of most of its denizens. ¡It’s up to you and your companions to save the people of Icewind Dale from this nightmare!

About me
I have played DnD since Baldur’s Gate and loved RPG's genre and tabletop games since then. I’m a bilingual DM (Spanish and english) who has run many tabletops for 10 years, also very versatile according to the climax of the session and the role-play of the players. Being a DM is my passion, my full-time job now, and gives me the incentive to prepare sessions each week with a unique experience.

Players say this GM is great at:
Creativity
Teacher
Rule of Cool
Played 24 sessions of "Baldur's Gate: Descent into Avernus." Zojak is an excellent GM if you're looking for someone eager to insert your creative ideas into the game. Not just background/origin ideas, but general in-game craziness if you're willing to try. The mood of his games are very lax, and it's more like hanging out with a group of friends for some shenanigans than sitting down for a serious thriller drama. Combat leans towards the more difficult side because of the wonky nature of his homebrew critical hit severity table, but he's very willing to provide you additional power if you can provide a reason to obtain it. Additionally, you will just have LOTS of resources if you keep track of loot, so if you enjoy building around magical items (across all books), they will be available at the appropriate tiers. Just be aware that Zojak has a somewhat heavy Spanish accent, which only becomes difficult if he's reading descriptions from the module. But he is aware of this and will clarify if you ask. This goes both ways, so you may need to clarify and repeat yourself if his response doesn't acknowledge what you said.
