Demyriath Awaits: Survive a Dark World of Horror and Madness

Creating your character

In Demyria, your character will be ready to step into the world from Session 1, with fully loaded character sheets on Roll20—no setup required on your part. We’ll begin with a Session 0 where we’ll explore the homebrew species, the lore of the world, and all alternate rules in use. This session will also cover player safety and allow us to work through character creation together. You have three options for creating your character: Pre-made Characters: Choose from a selection of pre-made characters designed to fit seamlessly into the world. Build Your Own: Create your character from scratch, using homebrew options that suit the unique setting of Demyriath. Custom Character Design: Provide me with a sketch of the character you envision, and I’ll take care of the rest—crafting a custom character that fits your desires and the campaign’s themes. Whether you’re a seasoned player or new to the game, I’ll ensure your character is fully equipped and ready to face the challenges of Demyriaths dark, dangerous world.

What Diamat (Mat) brings to the table

I run all my games on Roll20, where I’ve logged over 3,000 hours of experience crafting and running adventures. For Demyriath, I combine custom maps with an extensive library of licensed maps from professional artists, each carefully chosen to breathe life into this dark and twisted world. From ancient, crumbling catacombs to desolate landscapes shrouded in mystery, every location feels real, vivid, and deadly. I believe in player creativity and the power of teamwork. The rules are there to ensure fairness and provide a framework, but I encourage out-of-the-box thinking and clever solutions. Want to use that spell or ability in a unique way? I'm all for it if it makes sense for your character and the world. Worldbuilding is at the heart of my games. Every corner of Demyriath is filled with depth, history, and secrets. I strive to make you curious about the world beyond the current adventure, pulling you deeper into its lore and mysteries. Most importantly, player agency is key. Your choices have real weight and will lead to far-reaching consequences—both rewards and challenges. Whether it’s deciding the fate of a settlement or striking a deal with a dark power, the decisions you make will echo across the campaign.

How Diamat (Mat) creates a safe table

Combat is ruthless and fast-paced. I use alternate rest and recovery rules from the Dungeon Master Guide to increase the sense of danger. I encourage creative use of abilities and spells. I work to maintain game balance, while encouraging out-of-the-box thinking. Session 0 will cover the custom species, class structure, character motivations and how they know each other, Roll20 quick tutorial, code of conduct and safety. I offer pre-made character sheets that can be played as-is or customized to your preference. My X,N,and O cards are communicated digitally through direct message.
