About the adventure
(D&D 2014 Ruleset) 😈 Descent of Devils: The Last Key A Level 25 One-Shot for God-Slayers, Theorycrafters, and the Bastards Who Do 600 Damage in One Turn 🩸 The Wand of Orcus has been stolen. But the wound still bleeds. And the gods remain silent. You are no mere adventurer. You are walking cataclysms—names whispered in divine tombs, champions who shattered empires and walked away. Now comes the final trial. To cleanse the Wand, it must be bathed in the heartblood of Tiamat—and she does not bleed easily. But first, you’ll need to go through Nessus, through the Black Throne, and stand before Asmodeus himself. He holds the Ruby Rod. You hold everything else. Let’s find out what breaks first. ⚔️ The Mission • Descend into the Nine Hells, where oaths burn hotter than fire • Confront Asmodeus (CR 30, fully loaded) and steal the Ruby Rod • Enter Avernus, find Tiamat, and tear her heart open • Bathe the Wand in divine blood and end undeath—or unmake the planes 🧠 Character Creation Rules (READ THIS) This is a Level 25 Mythic Game. You are gods in mortal skin—build accordingly. 🧱 Levels • Total: 25 class levels • Max 20 in any single class • Multiclass freely • Point Buy for stats • You may trade levels for Feats or ASIs Ability Scores: • Softcap = 25 • Choose 2 stats to reach a hardcap of 30 HP: Use average HP for your extra levels, based on your main class. 💎 Magic Items • 3 Legendary / Artifact • 3 Very Rare • 2 Rare • 3 Uncommon • As much common gear as you can carry • 6 attunement slots — you’re built for myth ❌ Banned Items No exceptions: • Mask of the Dragon Queen / Dragon Masks • Ring of Three Wishes • Wand of Orcus (you already have it) • Deck of X (Many Things, Illusions, etc.) • Potion of Giant Size 🗡️ This One-Shot Is For You If: ✔ You build damage loops for fun ✔ You speak fluent action economy ✔ You want to roll like a demon, but roleplay with stakes ✔ You want to say: “I killed Asmodeus and Tiamat. With flair.” This is for players who like real boss fights, mythic mechanics, and death saves with weight. 📎 Logistics • Discord & D&D Beyond links will be sent after signup • WotC official content only (excluding CR/3rd-party), up through Spelljammer • Safety tools (X-card, vibe checks) in place. This is lethal, not edgy. 💀 Questions? Want to share a busted build? Need help optimizing your godkiller? DM me. TIP: Multiple seats can be reserved if you have multiple character ideas you'd like to run at the same time. Bring your heat. Bring your hurt. Bring something legendary. Hell’s watching. – DM Maximus ☠️

I’m DM Maximus - a professional GM with over a decade of experience weaving brutal, beautiful tales across systems and genres.

I specialize in games that feel cinematic, character-driven, and dangerous. Not every story is grim, but every moment matters. My games are shaped by your characters, with arcs that evolve from their decisions, flaws, and fire. 🎭 Full voice acting and immersive NPCs 🎲 Smart, tactical combat with impact 🧩 Puzzles, social intrigue, and real consequences ⚔️ Campaigns and one-shots built for emotional weight and unforgettable turns Whether you’re carving through a haunted domain, making deals in neon-drenched space stations, or trying to survive your last day in Hadley’s Hope - I'm here to make sure every session hits like a freight train. Come ready to burn bright or die loud. Let’s make some legends.

Creating your character
💀 MYTHIC ONE-SHOT: LEVEL 25 CHARACTER CREATION 💀 You are legends, godslayers, champions of the impossible. Prepare accordingly. 🧠 Level: Characters begin at Level 25. You may not exceed 20 levels in any single class. Feats or ASIs can be chosen in place of class levels beyond 20. ⚖️ Stats: Use Point Buy for ability scores. Soft Cap: All stats capped at 25. Choose two abilities to raise to a hard cap of 30. 📚 Allowed Content: Only official Wizards of the Coast 5e content. No Critical Role, third-party, or Unearthed Arcana. ❌ Banned Items: Mask of the Dragon Queen Dragon Masks Ring of Three Wishes Deck of Many Things/Illusions/Etc Wand of Orcus Potion of Giant Size 🧰 Magic Items: You may select: 3 Artifact or Legendary items 3 Very Rare items 2 Rare items 3 Uncommon items Unlimited Common gear (within reason) 🎒 Note: Attunement slots are expanded—you may attune to all your selected items. 💬 Need Help? Contact me if your item requires rolling or you'd like guidance building your mythic arsenal. 🎭 Multiclassing: Fully allowed. Build the champion you've always dreamed of—clever, cursed, or divine. 🎲 Build Tools: Build on DnDBeyond, create a separate “Level 5” character to manually track post-20 progression. Now step forward, chosen of fate. The Abyss yawns open. Let's see if it can swallow you whole.
What to expect
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 25 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 devils in Hell. 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.

Safety
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.
