About the adventure
💀⚰️Game Description On the mysterious Isle of Chult, cultists and liches have discovered a sacred site to perform their most profane and macabre rituals. Deep in the jungle, beneath rotting canopies and dinosaur-haunted ruins, they prepare the reincarnation of the Whispered One — Vecna, the god of dark secrets. His next incarnation will not merely return him to power; it will reshape the entire multiverse in his image, erasing worlds and rewriting reality itself. Brave adventurers — sent by powerful guilds, ambitious kings, and desperate dukes — have sailed to Chult in hopes of stopping this growing corruption. None have returned. Rumors claim the ritual has already begun, twisting the land with death and decay, while a soul-devouring curse spreads like wildfire across the realms. Will your party be the final hope to stop Vecna’s ascension and save all of reality? Or will you join the countless souls lost to the jungles and the lich-god’s dark design?💀⚰️ This campaign is beginner-friendly, perfect for new players and exciting for seasoned adventurers alike. 💀⚰️ Designed with a balanced focus: 33% roleplay, 33% exploration, and 33% combat, so every playstyle feels equally rewarding. Characters start at level 1, with an epic journey planned all the way to level 20. We’ll be using the new 2024 rules, with carefully modified elements for a smoother, more immersive, and fun experience. Includes outstanding puzzles, tactical combats, that will challenge both mind and sword. A seamless blend of epic storytelling, deep character roleplay, and thrilling battles offers the ultimate version of Tomb of Annihilation and Eve of Ruin. This is a high-survival adventure, where resourcefulness, clever planning, and teamwork are key to overcoming deadly traps and terrifying enemies.

Creating your character
Character Creation Characters will start at level 1, ready to grow all the way to level 20 in this epic journey. We will use the new 2024 rules for character creation. Attributes will be rolled, adding an element of luck and surprise to every hero's origin. We will develop your character’s origin and backstory together during a Session 0, ensuring each character is deeply connected to the story and the world. All official 2024 books and materials are allowed (with DM approval), and I can help guide you if you're new or unsure. No homebrew classes or unofficial third-party content, to keep the experience balanced and fair.
What to expect
Preparing for the session
Please be ready with: A Discord account (mic required) A Roll20 account (maps and VTT) D&D Beyond (character sheets managed there, Beyond20 integrated) A notebook or digital notes app for lore, NPCs, and foreshadowing Respect for others and an open mind.
What DM Alex brings to the table
I run a deeply narrative, immersive table with space for humor, tragedy, and personal investment. You can expect: 🎭🗣️🕰️ ✨ Rule of Cool + Rule of Consequence: If it makes the story better, we flex. But all actions have ripples. 🎧 Soundscapes, voice acting, ambient music (forest storms, haunted bells, whispered dreams) 🏋 Tactical battle maps 📖 Custom written NPC backstories, personal side quests, and evolving relationships ✍ Legendary boss fights with phases, evolving mechanics, and cinematic turns Combat is deadly. Bosses think. Enemies flee, adapt, or make deals. And story arcs bend based on your choices, not just written outcomes. You will matter. ⚔️💡🦴

Safety
How DM Alex creates a safe table
🕯️ Safety Your comfort and safety are my top priority. Folk horror explores intense and unsettling themes, but no one should feel unsafe at the table — real or virtual. 🗣️ Session 0 Discussion We will go over all safety tools and boundaries in detail during our Session 0 before play begins. This includes talking openly about any themes or topics you wish to avoid (Lines), topics that are okay but should be handled carefully (Veils), and what you’re excited to explore. 📄 Lines & Veils Document The key safety content is included in the game info and will be explained clearly at Session 0, but I will also provide a written Lines & Veils document for easy reference at any time. 🟢 X, N, & O Tools We will use digital X, N, and O tools — you can type or message privately at any time: X to stop or skip a scene immediately, no questions asked. N to signal you're feeling uncomfortable and want the scene to slow down or shift. O to indicate you're okay and ready to continue. These can be shared via voice, chat, or even a private message — whatever feels safest and most comfortable for you. 💬 Ongoing Check-Ins & Aftercare I encourage regular emotional check-ins, both during and after sessions, to ensure everyone feels heard and supported. After each game, we’ll have time to decompress, share thoughts, and check in with each other.
