Wildemount and Beyond - Call of the Netherdeep

Creating your character

Characters will begin at level 1. We will roll for stats at session zero. If your stat roll is terrible you may opt for 27 point buy instead. Character creation and levelling up will take place through DND Beyond, where I will have a campaign set up with content sharing. Please feel free to start working on a character as soon as you sign up, keeping in mind that character creation will be limited to options that make sense for the world of Exandria. This doesn't restrict a lot, as forgotten realms and Exandria are fairly similar, but please keep the setting in mind when starting to create characters. Once we determine who and what our characters will be, we will determine what has brought them to Palebank village to start their adventure. and the game shall begin!

Preparing for the session

Please have a decent microphone, a discord account (Free), a forge account (Free), a DND Beyond account (Free), and the Google Chrome browser installed. Please start thinking about your character ideas. You don't necessarily have to have anything done up for session zero, but it will help if you have at least started thinking about what you plan to do. If you already have an idea in mind, please send me any artwork you may want to use for your character. IMPORTANT: Before signing up, please review the recommended system specifications for Foundry VTT found here: https://foundryvtt.com/article/requirements/ . If your machine does not meet these requirements, the experience of playing through foundry may prove frustrating and at times non-functional.

Homebrew rules

Homebrew rules are voted on at session zero

How Squizard The GM creates a safe table

Character creation will be limited to options that exist inside the world of Exandria. Session zero will serve to polish off everyone's character ideas and discuss any boundaries the players may have in terms of content or themes. We will discuss safety tools and other housekeeping items in session zero as well. Levels 1 through 12 will be run out of the published module with a few enhancements, with homebrew options a possible option for continuation past that point. I am looking for a group of players that are aware of the basic mechanics of the game. This does not mean by any means that you need to be an expert, but you should have a solid understanding of how things like attack rolls and saving throws work, or how your turn works when you are in initiative. If you are interested in a campaign geared more toward beginners, please message me and we can talk about putting together a starter-set game geared toward learning the ropes. I would like to see metagaming limited as much as possible. Immersion will be an important aspect of this game, and your decisions should be made based on what your character would do in a given situation. Each player's turn in combat is not an opportunity for an OOC strategy meeting, but an opportunity for you to put yourself in the shoes of your character and respond to what is going on around them.
