Dungeons & Dragons 5e | One-Shot

About the adventure

The Forests of Cormanthyr, the shifting sands of Anauroch, the winding streets of Waterdeep. What do all of these places have in common? Adventurers explore them in the hopes of finding lost treasures, tantalizing secrets, or wondrous scenes! What will you find wandering through the Forgotten Realms? These one-shots come from various authors, and all are set in the Forgotten Realms! I have extensive experience helping players learn to play 5e, so don't feel like you can't enjoy one of the greatest role playing games ever made. With a selection of pre-generated characters, players can quickly jump and learn how to play while fighting goblins, spiders, and bears. Oh my!

How to prepare

Players will need a Roll20 and Discord accounts and have a basic understanding of how to play DnD (ie, rolling dice, basic arithmetic, etc). Players will only need a microphone, and we'll be using Discord for voice chat.

What I provide

Roll20 assets. I love using fun voices for characters. Not all of my voices are great, but I have a couple here and there that are really good. I also love helping people learn to play RPGs. Not just 5e, but Cypher, Alien RPG, and more.

Gameplay details

General Rules 1) Respect and listen to your fellow players. 2) Respect and listen to the GM. 3) Please do not distract other players. 4) Making the GM laugh so hard they can’t breathe while you’re in character gives you XP. 5) Take notes. 6) Please save meta-gaming, rule debates, memes, etc. until designated break times. 7) Random Events can occur at the GMs discretion. 8) Remember actions have consequences. 9) Keep noise at a reasonable level. Respect our neighbors and all of our ears. 10) No explicit actions will be detailed in-game. This includes sex, torture, etc. In accordance with StartPlaying.games rules and rightly so, no non-consensual sexual actions and no pedophilia will be allowed in this game. 11) No politics. 12) The Rule of Cool applies to the GM as well as players. I have an Open Door policy. You can step away for any reason, and the only thing we'll ask is if you're ok.
