Isekai Awakened: Reborn in a World of Wonder and Magic
This is your tale of high adventure, where every choice matters, in a world unknown. What will you do in a world both foreign and full of opportunity?
About the adventure
The moment was fleeting—a crash, an illness, a fall, a flash of light. Whatever ended your life came swiftly, and yet, as you closed your eyes, it wasn’t oblivion that greeted you. Instead, you awoke to the ethereal presence of a divine being. Their voice resonated like a chorus of stars, informing you that your existence had not ended but was about to begin anew. You have been chosen for a purpose, one that even the gods have not dared to reveal fully. Now, you find yourself in Eryndrol, a medieval world teetering on the edge of chaos. Empires crumble under the weight of betrayal, a forgotten evil stirs beneath the earth, and the gods themselves seem fractured and at war. Blessed by the deity who brought you here, you possess a spark of their power—a gift in the form of a boon, an innate talent, or a supernatural edge. But with this gift comes a question: what will you do with your second chance? The world of Eryndrol awaits your story, filled with danger, political intrigue, adventure, dark secrets, and ancient mysteries that tie back to the gods themselves. This campaign is ideal for fans of Re:Zero, Konosuba, Mushoku Tensei, or Sword Art Online. Step into a world where your choices and actions matter, and the second chance you’ve been given is both a blessing and a curse. Will you thrive in Eryndral, or will this new world claim you like the last? Tone: A blend of adventure, drama, and dark themes. Expect moments of levity and camaraderie, balanced by moral dilemmas and challenging encounters. Player Level: Characters begin at Level 3 and have a free feat to reflect their newfound power given to them.

About me
Hey everyone. I generally enjoy DM'ing sessions that are set in a world that feels lived in, encouraging layers to explore freely. My style is to always try to make the world feel alive so that when you make choices other things are still happening in the background, because that's how life works. I have played and DM'd an even amount, so I try to run games that I would want to be apart of. I enjoy a solid balance of RP and combat. Good plot points throughout the world make for a variety of fun, challenging, and impactful experiences, in my opinion, so that's what I set out to achieve while we all have a good time.

Eric is a great story teller, who crafts vast and interesting worlds to explore. Although there is a great main plot to follow, our party often went off road to explore different avenues, much to our delight and often at risk of death! Encounters had weight and it always felt like our actions had a real impact on the world around us. 10/10 would recommend.
Grim is a great storyteller and always builds very immersive worlds. He is always open to listening to what you want to do with your character and comes up with ways to help you achieve it. He always has a good atmosphere at his tables and has a very good balance of combat and roll play. His maps and visuals are always very good, to increase the player experience. I always enjoy the sessions.
Character creation
Creating your character
Characters will be created in Session 0 (should you miss this please organize a 1 on 1 session to create your character). Characters creation will happen on D&D Beyond and then I will input these into Foundry. Stats will work on a point buy system.

What Grim brings to the table
I will bring a plot heavy, vast world for players to explore. Sessions will be hosted on Foundry (including maps, sound tracks, etc), using Discord for audio purposes. I will provide a Discord chat for the campaign where the group can get to know each other better, discuss ideas and strategize between sessions, and provide feedback. I embrace the Rule of Cool, as long as it can be explained. Warning: AI art may be used during the campaign.

How Grim creates a safe table
You will receive a doc where you can tick Lines and Veils when you join the discord before session 0. This will be done privately. Aftercare will happen after sessions, I will stay online after each session to assess how you are feeling and if you need to talk about what happened in the session. My messages are open and all players are encouraged to privately message me should they wish to raise any concerns, both during the session or after.
