Game style

Rule of Cool (RoC)

“Rule of Cool” emphasizes creative story beats over sticking to a system’s rules as written. Players have the ability to push the limits of the rules or even break core rule mechanics at times if the Game Master thinks it is interesting, fun, or cool enough.

Roleplay Heavy

“Roleplay Heavy” games place the focus on the story, the characters, and the world they live within, and tend to lean hard into the various roleplaying elements of the game. These games will frequently find the party talking with NPCs, exploring the personal elements of their backstories, or even having emotional moments around the camp fire.

Combat Heavy

“Combat Heavy” games emphasize the combat mechanics within their systems over roleplay or puzzle solving. There are frequent and longer battles with enemies and a greater emphasis on tactical game play.

How to prepare

All players will need a Discord account and a D&D Beyond Account. Both of these can be made for free. After joining the campaign, you will receive a link to my Discord Channel. I will send you a 'friend request' so that we may do session zero by direct message on Discord. From there we will discuss character creation and get all accounts linked to the correct channel for game play.

What I provide

I use my talents as a writer to bring the world to life around my players. I will use anything at my disposal to move the story along as well as keep it entertaining. This may include, sound bites and AI art. I use maps from D&D Beyond and other sources and have become a whiz at creating player tokens. I incorporate the Avrae bot in my channels to aid with dice rolls.

Gameplay details

This is a Play by Post Campaign. All players will be asked to join my Discord Channel so they will have access to direct messaging. Session Zero will be held by direct message through Discord where game play will be explained as well as character building.

How will character creation work

I am always willing to help my players with character creation if needed. I do request that characters be made through D&D Beyond, joined with the Campaign on my D&D Beyond Account, and shared in the discord channel. By doing this, players are able to roll directly from their sheets, watch as the dice roll across the screen, and the rolls are displayed in the channel by the Avrae Bot.
