3 Hour Dungeon Crawl! (Level 5)

Creating your character

Bring your own ready-to-play characters created with the standard array method in D&D Beyond and then connect them to my D&D Beyond Campaign (link provided below), that way we can jump right into the action. EQUIPMENT/MAGIC ITEMS Please select 3 non-magic weapons for your PC (one of those can be a shield), two Uncommon magic items, and give yourself 50gp in gold. If you have questions about the game or your PC, please Direct Message me in Discord at least several hours before the game. Within 2-3 hours of play time, I tend to be pretty busy. :)

Preparing for the session

The biggest help to starting play quickly for a 3 hour dungeon crawl is to have Player Characters already built and already connected to the campaign prior to game time. Feel free to contact me as the DM as early as you like to help with this process. Your PC should be joined to the following campaign on D&DB: D&D Beyond Campaign Link https://www.dndbeyond.com/campaigns/join/62828531874659301 Shortly before game time (10 minutes or so), please join us at the following Discord channel. It's also OK to ask me questions on this Discord Channel hours or days before game time. Discord Server Link: Channel = "dungeon-crawl-one-shots" https://discord.gg/AsEzuBChfV I am SO looking forward to running this game for you!

What Fungeon Master Justin brings to the table

As your GM, my primary goal is to make sure everyone has a great time, including me! I recognize that every group is different and that the preferences of each group also vary, and my goal is to play to your preferences! WHAT WE'LL DO Dungeon Crawl stories are simple and clear and focus on running the party through a series of fun, dangerous, exciting, and rewarding challenges with enough story content to keep things interesting but not so much as to bog down the quick play needed for a 3-hour session. PLAY FOCUS Each party can, of course, select to focus more or less on each of the 3 pillars (social interaction, exploration, and combat), but the assumption going in for me as DM is that these sessions will be mostly about combat. HOWEVER, if you'd prefer a session that's more balanced, or more about role-play or exploration, I'm 100% up for that and would love to run such sessions, you just need to let me know. I'm also 100% flexible on the use of more or less puzzles and role-play in each session, just let me know at least 1 day before game time what works for you or your party (if you're joining as a group). VIRTUAL/REMOTE I use D&D Beyond and grant all player characters assigned to my campaign full access to all relevant materials. I also provide custom story content, original (my own) and AI-generated NPC, location, and item illustrations, and lots and lots of detailed big and small maps, as well as PDF post-game session notes for every episode. I usually play in Zoom, and video recordings may be available if we play in Zoom and the group is open to it. I can also play in Discord if Zoom is unworkable for some reason. NPC VOICES I love doing a wide range of compelling NPC voices and sound effects, but if you happen to be a group that prefers that I don't do that, I'm OK either way. Just let me know what you prefer.

Homebrew rules

TABLE RULES CRIT PC’s: Nat-20 damage = (1 full damage die value) + (1 rolled damage die value) + (normal bonus) e.g., D12 = (12) + (rolled value) + (normal bonus value) 25% SUPER BLOODIED Target creatures that have 25% or less of their hit points remaining make all attacks at disadvantage. 3 BAD ROLLS If a Player rolls 5 or less 3 times in a row on a d20 roll, they can re-roll the next 3 rolls at or below 5. SPELL SCROLLS Can be used with a casting ability check =10 if the spell is one your class can cast.

How Fungeon Master Justin creates a safe table

All listed safety tools are available to players at any time during the session. Our goal is to create a fun, safe play environment for everyone at all times.
