About the adventure
Diablo style Dungeon Crawl. Only exploration and battle encounters. No social encounters. Minimal story. Very much like a multi round arena session but you also explore a dungeon. No messing around. Jump right into action and it will be nonstop action. You can benefit from one short rest but you have to succeed at a relevant ability check. No long rests. May the odds be in your favor...

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.

Creating your character
- 2024 rules - No legacy content - No content incompatible with 2024 rules - No homebrew - Use Point Buy for ability score generation - No downtime, no bastion, no piety, no renown - You are responsible for all tokens including mounts, pets, and summons in Roll20. I have a How To for this if you need. Banned - All joke or gimmick characters - Chaotic stupid characters - PVP All Partner Content Notify me at least the day before the game session of any partner content you want to use so I can see if it will be a problem. Without this, all partner content is disallowed for your character. The following are already banned or restricted. - Obojima: All content - Heliana’s Guide to Monster Hunting - Barbarian Path of the Muscle Wizard - Spell: Depth Charge - The Crooked Moon - Backgrounds: You must choose feats, skills, tools, and ability scores that strongly relate to the background. - Spell: Veil of the Reaper
Naevys: My city is in trouble. It deteriorates with every passing second, and my king is part of it. Or rather, his stolen heart is. Ghalasine is slowly being reduced to ash, and its people are dying and can’t escape. King Jhaeros would do everything in his power to stop it if he could. I’ve served Jhaeros since I was a young squire. His father denied me knighthood—our family was poor, and I had no formal training—but Jhaeros made me his personal knight. That was the start of our friendship. He isn’t just kind; he’s warm and passionate, ever invested in the people of the city. A mages’ guild in a neighboring city used scrying spells to confirm my suspicion that one of the king’s closest advisers—Charmayne Daymore—is behind this. She has stolen the king’s heart and is using it to power a ritual. Jhaeros is now her obedient puppet. Charmayne’s ritual only affects people from Ghalashine; outsiders can safely enter the city. Please, steal Jhaero's broken heart back and bring it to me. This will end Charmayne’s ritual and we can use it to restore the king and the people of Ghalashine.

What to expect
Preparing for the session
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.

How BrunoDiaz creates a safe table
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.
