DnD in Space - The Light of Xaryxis - To Hilarity and Beyond!
Dungeons & Dragons 5e | Campaign
About the adventure
Welcome adventurers, both seasoned and new, to an exhilarating journey through the cosmos in my Spelljammer-themed Dungeons & Dragons campaign! Our setting, the Spelljammer universe, offers an epic tapestry of fantastical worlds interconnected by the vastness of space. Here, traditional fantasy elements blend seamlessly with the boundless potential of sci-fi as we sail the stars aboard magnificent spelljamming ships. From ancient ruins on far-flung planets to bustling, cosmopolitan spaceports teeming with life, the adventures promise to be truly out of this world. Whether you're a veteran with countless campaigns under your belt or a complete newcomer to D&D, there's a place for you at our table. My playstyle emphasizes collaboration and creativity, making it perfect for players with diverse levels of experience. I embrace an improvisational approach, responding to your character's actions with a "yes, and..." mentality that ensures your choices and ideas drive the narrative forward. This means the story is flexible and continuously evolving, shaped by your character's actions and decisions. Expect a campaign filled with intrigue, high stakes, and a fair share of humorous moments. I strive to create a welcoming environment where everyone feels free to contribute their ideas and see them come to life. Join us on this grand adventure through the fantasy cosmos, where your actions will chart new territories, forge epic tales, and leave a lasting mark on the Spelljammer universe. Your story awaits!
This adventure will begin at Level 5 and finish at Level 8. It will be around 12 - 14 sessions long. Whilst I prefer not to do a free session 0, if you join the campaign you will get 1 session free to make up for it.

I am a player in one of Dimble's Spelljammer campaigns and I love every second and can't wait for the next session! Such well done storytelling to create the scene and ambiance, but works with the players rather than against them, with plenty of fun throughout the drama! Perfect balance that I look for in a GM!

Arthur is an amazing DM. Great at storyline and keeping everyone/thing running smoothly. Even when players are causing chaos
Caitlin Taylor
Have played several games now and it’s the perfect mix of chaos and story, always a lot of fun to be had.

Stephanie
He is patient and kind when instructing or teaching others who are less confident with the complex rules and variations of D&D.
Firin
Dimble is an amazing dm and absolutely fantastic. He allows the players to express themselves and gives lot of room for creativity. One of the best dms I have played with!

How to prepare
You will need: A DND Beyond Account (free is fine) An internet ready device (phone, tablet, laptop etc.) Mic A Discord account
What I provide
I will provide a campaign link on DnD Beyond with PC options from the Spelljammer 5e setting (such as races and feats etc.). I will also provide the DnD Beyond Maps VTT for players to use during our games. I like to run my games with background music that fits the current situation (I have a whole playlist :)). I also like to voice the NPCs and speak in 1st person, but that doesn't mean the players have to or are expected to. Describing what your character does in the 3rd person is great! My voices aren't great, but I've got spirit. I mostly stick to Rules as Intended, but am happy to use the rule of cool as well. Want to shoot the beholder right in the eye, we'll work it out on the fly!
Gameplay details
I will send a link to an anonymous Google form where players will be able to input any Lines and Veils they have. Lines will not be crossed, Veils may be alluded to depending on the campaign and context.

How will character creation work
Character creation is somewhat up to the players. In session 0 we can either create a character with you, or for you. Or, if you already have a character we can run through their sheet at Session 0. Starting level will be level 5, with one potion of healing and one uncommon magic item. Stat generation can be either point buy or standard array. Ideally the characters will be created in DND Beyond - using the 2014 rules (for now)
