Descent into Avernus: RAGNAROK| Viking D&D Level 5 2024 rules

How to prepare

You'll need at least the following: - Microphone/headset - Discord - A Roll20 account - a D&D Beyond Account - a thirst for glory Recommended, but not required: - Beyond20 (This is a Chrome Extension, so you would need to use Google Chrome) - A Webcam - A drinking horn

What I provide

I have in my bag of tricks: -TONS of maps for tactical combat -Music for scene setting, ambience, and combat - a multitude of voices and accents -Scene images for more spur of the moment combats - A Master Tier DNDBeyond Account, with most first party content purchased (Magic items are where I lack the most) - A Pro Account on Roll20 with several Mods/APIs to make things cool and interesting. I tend to use Rules as Intended, over rules as written, but if you come to me with something rad, I'll usually allow it at least once.

Gameplay details

Welcome to Hell! Get ready for a reflavored and reforged version of Baldur's Gate: Descent into Avernus! The biggest change is we are skipping the first few levels of content and diving straight into Avernus with your characters. Zariel knows that the material plane will send champions and has managed to block planar travel into hell by the material plane. This is where you come in. On the plane of Ysgard (D&D's Viking afterlife plane), your vikings are hanging out and drinking mead, and are given a chance at further glory by going into hell and kicking ass. There will be plenty of combat and roleplay to sink your teeth into as the denizens of hell try to both tempt you and murder you in equal measure. We will go over Players Veils and Lines in session 0, which I will keep in a reference document that will be sent to all players. X, N, and O's can be used in session for things that we may not have gone over in session 0, and those can be messaged privately to me or publically, per player's comfort. I will check in with everyone in between sessions to make sure everyone is comfortable with the content and direction of the campaign.
