About the adventure
The Violet Heart is the source of magic for the city Vicspring. It is the main source of the magical liquid known as vicir, the namesake of the archipelago nation the Vicir Isles. Vicir is used throughout the region, and the world, as a magical ingredient in arcanic machines, enchanted weapons, and complex rituals. Vicspring, and the wider Vicir Isles, have become wealthy due to the trade of vicir. This trade has made the isles a center of culture and knowledge known throughout the world. What started as a loose organization of human cities on separate islands has become a nation filled with different species, ideas, cultures, and affiliations. The vicir also has deep connections to the isles, and it can change and morph those who live on them. Magic simply flows more readily here, and it is reflected in pure arcane prowess some of its inhabitants develop. Unfortunately, the power in Vicspring also attracts those who would like to control vicir for themselves. Vicspring has a history of cults, fiends, foreign nations, and other creatures and organizations trying to take over the city. They have all been repelled each time, but there are rumors that a new enemy has arrived. One that operates unseen, with an almost imperceptible touch, has been quietly moving to gain influence and power in the city and, by extension, over vicir. You have been quietly called in by the leaders of the city to help uncover this enemy. You are to act as if you have no association with the government. With this additional edge, and with your specific perspective and skills, you will seek to uncover this secretive enemy using methods the government cannot. I DM games using the FoundryVTT software that helps me run faster combats and more jam-packed sessions. My aim is to minimize the parts of the game that are tedious and maximize the epic moments you want with your characters. This game will be roleplay heavy, and the combats and events that occur will be heavily influenced by that roleplay. This is a homebrew, custom campaign that will never be run again.

About me
I started as a Dungeon Master online at the beginning of 2020. I know my tools inside and out, and I know how to create a tabletop experience online because it is the medium I started in. I take advantage of the technology whenever I can to enhance everyone's experience by automating the tedious parts of the game so more focus can be put on aspects of the game you love. I use a combination of D&D Beyond, FoundryVTT and Discord to run my games. I am looking forward to meeting you! Please message me if you have any questions!

Creating your character
Characters will be made with D&D Beyond during the session zero. Stats will be generated through a modified rolling system. There may be racial limitations and certain backstory expectations depending on the class/race you choose. You are free to not use D&D Beyond; just please let me know before hand. Alternatively, I can also provide a pregenerated character to you.
Ashborn Moon Druid, Half-Elf Swashbuckler Rogue/Warlock, Human Bladesinging Wizard, Human Divine Soul Sorcerer, and Tiefling Echo Knight Fighter/Rogue.
What to expect
Preparing for the session
You will at least need a mic, Discord account, a stable internet connection, and a D&D Beyond account (if you want easy access to my content library on the platform). Everything else can be taken care of by me. Reading over the rules and becoming more familiar with D&D is also always useful. I'll also go over FoundryVTT with you.
What Justin brings to the table
I provide the majority of official books on D&D Beyond via content sharing, and I also have a community of people who are currently on my games on Discord. I also utilize FoundryVTT for battlemaps and world maps. I am bringing years of D&D experience online, and I am looking forward to starting a new campaign with you.
Homebrew rules
You may choose your spellcasting ability score (wisdom, intelligence, or charisma) independently of your class. Examples of this include an intelligence based warlock or a wisdom based paladin. When taking levels in a class you may choose to take a subclass feature from any subclass of that class of equal or lower level to that subclass feature. In some instances this may not work, like an Assassin taking the Soul Blades feature from a Soulknife due to the Assassin’s lack of psi dice.
