About the adventure
In a time of global crisis, H.E.R.O. is created to curb the growing threat of strange creatures appearing after the Atomic Age. These people altered by the creature's presence gain all manner of powers, banding together and using their newfound abilities to help restore some measure of peace to a war-torn world. However, as these creatures, now dubbed Kaiju by the public, are largely considered natural disasters, a new threat arises as rogue Alters take to crime and villainy! ―――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――― You are an Alter, stepping into a world of destruction and wonder once reserved for the pages of a Comic Book. Armed with unique abilities, you combat the growing threats, be they manmade or from beyond all conceptions of reality.

About me
I am here to bring your fantasies to reality. To craft a shared world where you can be the Hero (or Villain) you have always wanted to be. Whether that is with something prewritten or a custom creation where you recreate your favorite Anime, Movie, TV Show, Video Game and so forth.

Creating your character
You recieve an Alter, a collection of abilities similar to those found in Species, Classes and Subclasses, as well as additional Spellcasting (up to 5th Level Spells) and should you choose to use an ASI/Feat Slot, you can upgrade that Alter. Further empowering you by increasing the additional Spellcasting to 9th Level Spells, among other new and enhanced abilities. Your Character Level is 17th. All official Class and Species options are available, including Third Parties on D&D Beyond. Should you desire something Homebrew and/or from a Third Party not yet on D&D Beyond, my approval is required and may be subject to modifications, should the selection be considered imbalanced i.e. too strong and/or too weak. 2024 Backgrounds are not permitted due to how limited and homogenized they are. Instead, choose a non-2024 Background, a corresponding Origin Feat and increase your ASIs through your Species. The optional Rules of Multiclassing and Feats are allowed. Standard Array, Point Buy and Rolling are available for Ability Scores. If Rolling, you will roll with me present. Additionally, should you choose to roll, I have a Mulligan Rule allowing you to reroll one roll or the entire set of rolls should the odds not be in your favor. Keeping the final result. ―――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――― Additionally, you receive extra Items beyond the normal Starting Equipment that include: ▶️ 265,980,000 Copper (Credits) You can spend your cp (Credits) on Magic Items. Common = 10,000 cp, Uncommon = 40,000 cp, Rare = 400,000 cp. Very Rare = 4,000,000 cp, Legendary = 40,000,000 cp; half for consumables. ⭐ There are Rules for Attuneless Magic Items and Downtime Activities where you can train Feats, Skills & more. Inquire if interested.
The Wallcrawler (Shifter Monk/Artificer) and Gio Rose (Shadar-kai Sorcerer).
