About the adventure
I am looking for players who want a tailor made campaign designed around the player characters in a somewhat sandbox way to create a character driven narrative. I have run campaigns that I have written prior to play before, and they simply don't produce as compelling of a narrative than ones designed to be fluid and player driven from the start. I am open to pretty much anything, just send me a DM and some details about your group, and we can start working on a narrative.

About me
I started my journey to becoming a Dungeon Master for DnD5e because I was fascinated by the ability to turn stories I write into playable worlds that my friends and I could enjoy. From there I got more and more bewitched by the freedom of play that Dungeons and Dragons provided and the amazing moments it can provide like when a few bad rolls for me, a few lucky Nat 20s and a great plan leading to my players defeating the BBG that I had created for the campaign within their first encounter with her. Seeing how much they enjoyed something I created had me hooked. Now I have more stories and ideas than my two groups can manage, and I am looking to put them to good use giving other people the ability to have those awesome moments with their friends. I'm of the philosophy that if it's fun and viable then let's leave it to the dice. The few things you will want to know about me as a DM is that I am characters first, story writing second. I think the best way to write a good campaign is to find out about your heroes (or villains) first then write your story around the goals of these characters in a way that provides the characters a narrative in which they progress as people as well as puppets for the players, creating a more authentic and engaging narrative.

Creating your character
We will be starting with level three characters, players should come to session zero with the backstory idea, preferably a series of bullet points at a minimum. If you also come with the technical character stuff as well that would be great, when you first join the campaign I will add you to a DnD beyond campaign to allow for you to have access to the 2024 PHB.
What to expect
Preparing for the session
All you will need is chrome, a discord account and a microphone. I will use a web camera however it is not a requirement from any of the players.
What Ben brings to the table
I bring copies of all the wotc 5e books, a few addons and foundry VTT. I am a very amenable GM focused on ensuring the most enjoyable experience. Furthermore, I try to stay within the existing rules of 5e however on the occasion I like to add other elements that improve the experience, and I am all for the rule of cool.
Homebrew rules
Drinking potions as a bonus action, Modified Crits. (Other rules based on the individual campaign, such as injury mechanics for gritty campaigns.)

How Ben creates a safe table
