A Beginner's Heist - The Murkshire Malevolence

A Beginner's Heist - The Murkshire Malevolence

Dungeons & Dragons 5e | One-Shot

About the adventure

New to D&D or veteran wanting a change of pace ? Get into the hilarious situations only a high-stake heist can provide. Role-play your way out of sticky situations, fool guards with clever disguises, come up with overly complicated and intricate plans ... or just fight your way out. The choice is up to you. We'll be delving straight into a time-sensitive matter; a dangerous item urgently needs to be 'secured' from a museum in Neverwinter, but the curator is already on high alert. What will your group come up with ? Will you be able to prevent disaster from striking ?

Additional details

How to prepare

Technical: - know how to connect to roll20 - have a mic and account on discord. - webcam optional - if you created your character on dndbeyond, install the beyond20 extension in your browser so we can get your rolls into roll20 Knowledge of the rules: - some familiarity with dnd 5e rules (just basic is ok, e.g. 'watched a lot of critical role' level is fine) Character: - if you know how to create a character yourself and send to me to approve - a set of premade characters will be made available, so you can also pick one there. Setting: - It's set in Neverwinter, in Faerun, but no knowledge of this setting is required

What I provide

- game session will be held in roll20, all maps and tokens provided (I have premium subscription, so dynamic lighting and other extras will be enabled) - voice over discord (server provided) - video optional - ambiance music over twitch

Gameplay details

- Session 0: max 15 min intro on boundaries for the group and how we create a safe environment where everyone can enjoy themselves. - X, N and O: send to me privately via roll20 chat. I'll adapt the flow of the game without bringing this up. In my experience this lowers the threshold to raise concerns and minimizes interruptions to the joy and flow of the game.

How will character creation work

As this is a one-shot (beginner-friendly) characters will be created before the session. If you're experienced you can make a lvl 3 character on D&D beyond and share it, otherwise just pick any of the premade characters that will be made available to you. Details: - level: 3 - source material: all official, but if it's known OP stuff check with me. - Flavouring: Yes (i.e. as long as the mechanics stay the same, you can reflavour spells, feats, ... as you see fit).
