About the adventure
This game starts at level 1 and is for all players. We will be taking this campaign to level 20. The Circle of the Golden Dragon In the fractured lands of Eldarion, peace is but a fleeting dream whispered on the wind. Kingdoms squabble over shattered relics, nobles bicker over ancient bloodlines, and shadowy forces stir in the forgotten corners of the world. Yet in the heart of this turmoil, a spark ignites. Long ago, when the balance of magic held firm, a pact was forged between mortals and a radiant golden wyrm. Alarion, the Dragon of Dawn. This pact, now all but lost to myth, gave rise to a sacred order sworn to protect the realms from corruption and darkness. They called themselves: The Circle of the Golden Dragon. For centuries, the Circle stood as defenders of light and truth… until they vanished without a trace. Now, generations later, a new band of adventurers young, untested, but destined for greatness has unknowingly taken the first steps along a path forgotten by time. Whether driven by gold, glory, vengeance, or curiosity, fate has drawn you together. You are no one yet.. But whispers stir in the wind. Dreams speak in ancient tongues. And somewhere, far from the eyes of kings and warlords, an ancient power watches once more. The Circle shall rise again.

What Professional Villain brings to the table
What do I bring to the table? Well, let me explain that by talking about what makes a great DM. You see I'm a player too because I love the game. Great DMs are not going to Railroad you into a specific storyline because your not just characters in their story. They want you to have a voice and help them write the story that is unfolding before everyone at the same time. Great DMs should give you options when you have none and help you to achieve your goals not their own. They are good listeners and help people to learn and play the game well. They are patient, and kind, but will lay down the law when necessary. I will not have players making it hard or unbearable for others to play the game. I have seen a lot of people use and abuse game time to the detriment of all. That is not going to happen in my games. A great DM is well prepare for anything and everything. lets say the group wants to go to a main city and stay there for a while. That's fine. What if there is someone who really wants something very specific for their character I will add it to the loot table or suggest a side quest where they get it for sure. Loot is hard to give out for some DMs and making your player more effective is as well but this is not an issue for a Great DM. I hope to see you at my table
