Day of the Destroyer (Beginner Friendly)

How to prepare

A mic is required, but a camera isn't. Personal choice to use a camera or not. You'll need roll20 and discord accounts as well. You don't have to create a character ahead of session 0 but will need one before the first session. Session 0 is also free. If you don't like the vibe of myself or the rest of the group no harm, no loss. For new players: It'd be nice if you knew some rules a bit before getting into things but if not, no big deal. Plenty of time to learn during the game.

What I provide

I have a penchant for horror type elements. Monsters will be monsters. That said I prefer things to be freaky and weird rather than overly gross. More Resident Evil than Saw for example. I dislike killing player characters, I prefer to challenge and impede. In all my years of running D&D I can count on one hand the amount of permanent PC deaths. When running combat I like to make it a challenge but not overwhelming. Some monsters will play to the party's strengths while others will be included to prod at weaknesses. Combat is where I like to stick to rules the hardest but even then might bend on a few things here and there. I won't do a voice for every NPC and some minor conversations will be glossed over (Don't need to rp out renting a room at an inn for example) but some will either if they're important or I just think it'd be fun to give an npc a voice. It might be more common for an npc to have a preferred method of talking rather than a full accent. No I am not the best at accent so some might sound a bit silly. Under no condition will sexual content be described or roleplayed.

Gameplay details

Any concerns, limits or anything else that might come to mind during session 0. From there a list will be posted for anyone to see at any time. Any player can also come to me at any time for any reason.

How will character creation work

Characters will start at lvl2, using either the 2014 or 2024 rules. We'll hold a session 0 and have a discord server for anything and everything Campaign related. I'll work with each player to build out their character. If you're a new player just let me know and I'll be happy to walk you through the process. Anything official is up for use. I don't mess with homebrew character options much. Character sheets will be hosted on roll20 but if you have a personal method, D&D beyond or a physical sheet, you can use that to track things. I'd just need the roll20 sheet and the personal method to match up.
