About the adventure
The ocean remembers. It carries every secret, every betrayal, every lost soul beneath its shimmering surface. Your journey begins along the Menagerie Coast where the Clovis Concord rules the ports and the Revelry pirates haunt the open sea. This solo, play-by-post D&D 5e campaign invites you to chart your own course through the sunlit shores and shadowed depths of Exandria’s southern waters. You may begin as a sailor, scholar, fugitive, or wanderer, or anyone drawn to the coast’s tangled mix of beauty and danger. From the coral-lined streets of Port Damali to the lawless coves of Darktow, every choice you make shapes the story that unfolds between you and the ever-shifting tide. Expect a slow-burn, narrative-driven experience built on atmosphere, character growth, and cinematic writing. This isn’t a hack-and-slash dungeon crawl. It’s an immersive story where your words matter, your choices linger, and the world reacts organically around you. Exploration, mystery, and emotional storytelling drive the game as you uncover the truth behind what sleeps in the deep, ancient relics, forgotten gods, or something stranger still. The campaign unfolds through play-by-post, meaning you’ll write your character’s actions and dialogue while I bring the world, NPCs, and consequences to life. Posts will be detailed and descriptive, allowing time for introspection and interaction rather than rushing from scene to scene. It’s perfect for players who love thoughtful pacing, vivid worldbuilding, and the feeling of being part of a living novel. Whether you’re an experienced adventurer or new to D&D, all you need is imagination, curiosity, and the willingness to let the tides take you. This story is for players who want to live in the world, to taste salt on the air, feel the storm roll across the deck, and hear the call of something ancient beneath the waves. Will you answer the ocean’s call? Note: Campaign is solo one-on-one play. Seats are open to accommodate for multiple players, each in their own solo setting.

About me
Welcome adventurer! I am Saucy, your game master and guide, who will take you through a harrowing world where danger and possibility exist around every corner! My personal adventure to become a DM began like so many others; as a player. I spent many, many years playing in countless campaigns, some to level 20! However, my inner creative had a love for building rich characters and crafting stories, and NPC’s, out around those characters. Right away, I knew that I wanted to sit behind the DM screen instead of in front of it. I've now been DM'ing for over two years and am excited to share my love of TTRPG's with you. At my core, I am a storyteller, who, whether through theater, creative writing, or simply shared laughs around a campfire, have enjoyed bringing stories to life in a variety of mediums. From as early as I can remember I felt at home in fantastical immersive storytelling, whether high fantasy or sci-fi, or adventures set in the American old west. TTRPG’s became a natural extension for me as both a voracious reader and writer. Later on I would go on to earn my BFA in English Literature and Creative Writing. As your DM I will bring my love of rich storytelling to the table to provide you with the opportunity to build detailed characters and explore backstory in a layered world, even within a structured module. Whether you are brand new to TTRPG’s or you’ve been playing them all your life, I will be sure to tailor each session to create an inclusive, friendly table where every player gets a moment to shine, and where your backstory actually matters. Pack your adventuring gear, and sharpen your swords, as together we set out to explore dark dungeons, uncover secret plots, and face legendary monsters and foes to create a story uniquely your own!

Creating your character
Character Creation will take place during our onboarding session zero, along with worldbuilding, starting location, and character backstory development. In this campaign, your character backstory and motivations matter perhaps more than your character sheet. We'll build your character to match WHO they are, so that this world becomes as alive and immersive as possible.
What to expect
Preparing for the session
This game is played on Discord and will use Owlbear for combat scenes, as well as DNDBeyond for character creation. I provide nearly any and all sources from DNDBeyond, to maximize your flexibility in character creation.
What Saucy brings to the table
I bring a wealth of knowledge of Exandria and the world. I have run multiple campaigns as a GM and played multiple sandbox style campaigns as a player. Because our focus is on storytelling, combat will be limited, and when it does occur it will be high-stakes and high danger. However, while 'planned' combat is limited, the world will react to you. (If you move to pick a fight with an NPC they will react in kind.) I do follow Rules-As-Written, but because this game is narratively driven will allow the Rule-of-Cool to prevail when it makes narrative sense.
