About the adventure

This is a story about 3-4 individuals, in pursuit of a Necromancer, through a ravaged land of sinister intrigue and home to creatures born of utter darkness. You've been on his tail for months, ever since he devastated your town and destroyed most of it, including your friends and family. A tale of vengance and grit, fueled by a most volatile emotion, hate. And a yearning for revenge. A fantasy Western one-shot inspired by the likes of '' S. King's Dark tower'' and ''Red dead redemption''. A setting where cowboys and mythical monsters exist in violent harmony. sidenotes: - race: any - class: any - level: 3 The required software is the discord app and a mic. Webcam is optional.

Additional details

How to prepare

Mic is a must, obviously. The camera is not, but it is welcome. Be sure there's no outside noise in your room once the game begins. If you have any questions: vidasivan@gmail.com

What I provide

Discord only. I find that VTTs get in the way of immersion. Using your camera is a plus, but not a necessity.

Gameplay details

To play, you only need discord. There are no VTTS, seamless theatre of the mind. Camera is a welcome option but not necessary. Experts of TTRPGs and first timers are welcome, any questions you may have can be answered beforehand.

How will character creation work

LvL 3 character, any officialy recognized dnd class and race. Don't invest too much time(or any) in creating an expansive backstory, because this is a 1 shot, it's hard to integrate a large backstory. However, if you do take the time to construct a background story for your character, send it to me and I'll include it in the game.
