About the adventure
The Wicker King, first lord of the Grey Citadel has been gone for 100 years. Recent rumors tell of whispers of a new cult destined to return him to life and glory. Join the Season of Adventure, where you never know what evil lurks around the corner, and everything you do has lasting consequences! ♜This game is drop in/out style. ♜We are heavy into combat, tactics, and mechanics. ♜All 2024 content is available.
Game style
Dungeon Crawl
A “Dungeon Crawl” is a scenario where players navigate a dungeon or labyrinth-like environment for the entirety of the adventure. It emphasizes battling monsters, collecting loot, and avoiding traps to survive to the end!
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.
This is a level 3 adventure. New characters come in at level 2. If you have a current Season of Adventure character, up to level 5, they may be brought to this game.

Additional details
How to prepare
You will need a microphone, and a camera is preferred. I will provide a player's guide to get you comfortable with the campaign world, any homebrew rules, and options that are available based on the campaign setting.
What I provide
I will provide a server, lots of images and help finding the right illustration. I will work with you on your backstory and how it fits into the campaign world. We will also use that to start creating your personal storyline that compliments the campaign story.
Gameplay details
I use Foundry VTT to run all of my games. I help in character creation as much as possible, and am always available to chat if anyone has any questions or concerns. Anyone comfortable on camera is encouraged to turn that on, as I will be using it to make eye contact, describe scenarios and even use a few physical props.

How will character creation work
Character creation will occur after a short chat through a dnd beyond link that I will provide at the start. Once created, we will import the characters, do a little fine tuning and get ready to play. If you have a concept in mind, you are welcome to make that before we get started. Characters will be created using the 2024 ruleset as well as anything that came before, and anything official from WOTC is permitted. If your background doesn't come from the PHB, I will work with you to make it suitable for the new rules. I have created 13 new backgrounds and a specialized origin feat to go with each of them and players are encouraged to join one of the guilds that these represent.
