Preparing for the session

How to Prepare: 🎲 Build Your Character in D&D Beyond (you'll receive a campaign link upon signup with all shared content unlocked). Come to the table with a finished Level 20 character, or contact me for help if you want to collaborate on something epic. 🎧 Join the Discord – You’ll receive an invite after signing up. We use Discord for voice chat. A working microphone is required. No webcam needed. 🌐 No Downloads Required – Foundry VTT runs in your browser (Chrome, Firefox, or Opera recommended). No setup headaches—just click the link and you’re in. 📃 Bring a Backstory, or at least a Vibe – Even in a one-shot, knowing your character’s style, goal, or tragic flaw helps bring the drama. 🧷 Safety First – We use an X Card system, accessible anonymously during play. All players will have the link to our digital tool to pause or redirect scenes if needed. Come ready to throw down with demon princes in the Abyss. Bring your strongest builds, boldest ideas, and darkest dreams.

What DM Maximus brings to the table

I bring 8 years of DM experience—4 of those as a full-time professional—and a toolkit fine-tuned to deliver immersive, cinematic storytelling. 🔹 Foundry VTT, loaded with: Dynamic lighting, 3D dice, animated spell effects, and rich atmospheric music. Custom maps, hand-selected tokens, and visual FX to heighten combat and exploration. Full automation of D&D 5e mechanics to streamline gameplay and keep things moving fast. 🔹 D&D Beyond: You’ll get full access to all official 5e content up through Spelljammer, free via my campaign share. Build your character with ease—no paywall blocking your creativity. 🔹 Theatrical NPCs and story-driven encounters: I live inside the characters I play. Whether it’s a snarling demon general or a weeping priest, you’ll hear their pain, pride, and presence. 🔹 Flexible GMing with player-first focus: I follow the Rule of Cool when it enhances the game, and I always strive to be a fan of your character. I’d rather ask “how do we make this moment happen?” than say “your sheet doesn’t allow that.” 🔹 No downloads required: Foundry runs in your browser. Join the Discord, hop in with a working mic, and you’re good to go.

How DM Maximus creates a safe table

Once a player signs up, they’ll be sent a private link to join the campaign Discord server—this is where voice chat happens during games, announcements are posted, and you can connect with the group between sessions. A D&D Beyond campaign link will also be provided so you can access all officially published content up to Spelljammer, fully shared and unlocked. Safety tools are part of the table culture. I use a digital X-Card that can be activated anonymously during the game via the VTT, allowing any player to signal discomfort instantly and discreetly. We’ll also cover table rules and personal boundaries together in Session 0, which includes both discussion and gameplay. This table runs on respect, high-stakes storytelling, and shared badassery—no one should ever feel unsafe at the table. If something comes up mid- or post-session, I’m always available for check-ins and aftercare in private.
