The corruption of the Dark Powers (2014 Rules)

How to prepare

Webcam and Mic are required. The players need to have a way to take notes and a DnD Beyond account to create the characters. As for the rules, I will try to ease the experience as much as possible, just asking for the rolls needed and helping with the questions that may arise, however, it will be better if the players spend a little time getting to understand the character sheet, as it will be full ot tools for them to use during the campaign.

What I provide

We will be using Owlbear Rodeo, with Custom Maps, made by myself, and tokens for your characters. In sesion 0 we will determine if the players prefer a map and miniatures or theater of the mind, however, I will still use maps to help visualize spaces and relevant information. I won't use voices often, but I usually find a way to make the characters shine, specially on their way to interact with the players. As for the rules, I tend to follow them and, if some house rule will be use on the session or the campaign, it will be informed before hand, and approved by the players before doing so. 2014 rules will be used.

Gameplay details

I will be sending the Mont Cook RPG Consent Checklist, and after that the content that is not aligned with the answers provided by the players, will be modified, or removed, to match their expectations and to create a safe enviroment to everyone. After that, in Sesion 0, all further questions may be raised by the players to ensure we are all aligned.

How will character creation work

This game will user 2014 rules for Dungeons and Dragons 5e. The stats will be determined rolling four dice and picking the highest three 6 times. No rerolls allowed. As for the level in which the Adventure will start, there are three options: 1. The Adventure will start as intended, with the characters at level 1, entering the Death house (This option may be lethal) 2. The Adventure will start at level 3, skiping the Death house entirely. 3. The Adventure will start at level 1 with either "The Lost Mine of Phandelver" or "Waterdeep: Dragon Heist" as the leve 1 option, and the characters being drawn to Barovia once they have finished those adventures. This will be decided by the player in Sesion 0. For the character creation I will allow my players to use the following books: - The Player's Handbook (2014) (Races, Classes, Subclasses and Backgrounds) - The Xanathar's Guide to Everything (Subclasses) - Tasha's Cauldron of Everything (Classes and Subclasses) - Monsters of the Multiverse (Races) - Curse of Strahd (Backgrounds)* - Van Richten's Guide to Ravenloft (Subclasses and Backgrounds)* *These options are available to characters that come directly from the setting, born and raised in Barovia. This option is not available if the players decide to start with option 3, as they will start outside of Barovia. No feats at level 1. That option won't be available. And the previous history and bonds for the character needs to be delivered at least three days before the first session, so they can be integrated within the campaign.
