About the adventure
Sigil is the backstage of the multiverse. Celestials and Fiends share drinks in genie-owned taverns, agents of evil gods trot through the streets astride nightmares, and hags stable faerie steeds alongside pegasi and beasts of living stone. As a result of this mingling, fundamentally incompatible parts of the multiverse come into direct contact.

About me
I've loved D&D ever since I first experienced it in the 80s. I've DMed many full campaigns and many, many one shots. I love this game and how it brings people together for social fun from any geo and demographic. I am friendly to all demographics and insist that my players are likewise. If you want to be chaotic stupid, engage in PVP, or ruin the fun for other players, I'm not your DM.

I wholeheartedly recommend Bruce for anyone who enjoys a good game of D&D! I’ve been playing with Bruce for quite a while now (66 sessions as I write this). His style as a DM is excellent. He provides plenty of roleplay opportunities along with challenging combat each session. While not in session, he is invaluable with character creation, giving tips to help your characters reach their potential without sacrificing your vision of your character. His homebrew adds fun and interesting options to the game, constantly evolving to keep it fresh. If that’s not enough, he runs a Discord channel full of knowledgeable folks who are happy to help. Give him a try, you won’t regret it.

Bruce is an awesome DM, knows the rules very well, and will work with players to make the game as enjoyable as he can. Have been playing in Bruce's Campaign for about a year now, and have a blast every session.

Bruce is a terrific DM who cares about the player community he builds -- fun, safe and welcoming for new or experienced players, supportive, creative, story telling, he includes players in the world building, uses rule of cool... He checks all the boxes. There's a reason his players keep coming back. Give it a try. You won't be disappointed.

I had a great first game session with Bruce. He took a lot of time to explain everything to newbie-me. The game was a ton of fun and I can't wait to come back for another round. Update: I've know played through an entire campaign with Bruce (60 sessions or so) and it was absolutely FANTASTIC!! He's an amazing DM and this was the best campaign I've ever played in. Highly, highly recommended!

Awesome help for the new player that worked with us and kept the session moving. Master of the rules! Has great homebrew additions for this west marches style set in Icewind Dale. Based on Rime of Frost Maiden but one-shot style allows plenty of options for character growth and experimentation.

When you arrive, you are seen directly to Jamis's office where she wastes no time sharing the details of an urgent and secret mission she needs Engstoll to complete, post haste. The Blood War is out of balance. The Fraternity of Oorder aims to restore balance to the Blood War (the eternal feud between demons and devils) by obtaining the true names of a pit fiend commonly known as Karnyros, a balor called Errtok, and a marilith known as Hexalanthe. You must obtain these Fiends’ true names from the Stranger aboard the Concordant Express, an interplanar train destined for Mechanus, where the outlaw is set to stand trial. This quest, should you choose to undertake it, requires you board the train, locate the Stranger, and acquire the true names from them. Expect to be contacted shortly by a quadrone named Glitch, a former train operative who now works for us. Good luck, operatives.

You need a mic, Discord, Roll20, DNDBeyond, and the browser extension Beyond20. Have your player character made 1 hour before the session and DM me with it so I can get your token setup in Roll20.
What BrunoDiaz brings to the table
This is all virtual. I bring all the DM stuff including NPCs with personality and voices. You bring your A game and roleplay. We'll have a blast.
Homebrew rules
Spellcasting is mostly RAW but: - With hands and Somatic and Material components. If you have a hand free or are holding a spellcasting focus that qualifies for you, you're good for SM spells. If you have Warcaster then you're good for all S or M spells. Otherwise, you can't cast the spell with S or M components. - You don't need to buy every specific little material component in advance. You can use money to buy the Spell Component Materials generic item in game and add it to your inventory. One Spell Component Material counts as 1 gp worth of material component. Note that the full item name is Spell Component Materials DSR and is a homebrew item so you will have to have homebrew turned on, just don't use any other homebrew.

I have a channel in Discord for session 0, lines and veils. I encourage you to reach out if you have any concerns or want to add anything. X, N, & O's should be sent via Discord as a direct message to the DM.
