Storm Kings Thunder (Beginner Friendly, Session Zero Free)

Creating your character

- All you need to bring to the first session is a basic character concept, with that I will help you build them into a more fleshed out person that fits into the world - Your characters will be built in the DND Beyond Character builder in the session 0 or prior to your first session. - Stats will be decided using standard array - Homebrew will be considered and reviewed If you are joining at a later session, I will reach out to discuss ways to introduce your character to the party and the campaign.

Preparing for the session

Players will need a Discord account for voice chat. Video call is encouraged but not at all necessary (It helps with getting to know each other throughout the campaign and is great for reactions) This will be our main space to talk, play, and share updates. You’ll also need a D&D Beyond account. A free account is completely fine! I’ll be sharing all the books and campaign content you’ll need to create and play your characters, so you’ll have everything at your fingertips Rolls will be made through DND Beyond's dice system Links will be sent out for both the Campaign and the Discord Server :) Your first session will be free. We will mainly be building your character and getting you ready for the campaign

What WorldDancer brings to the table

I try my best at character voices, though they might not sound great. I will play ambient music dependant on the scene we are in. My campaigns are generally more tailored to role-play, but there are a good number of combat encounters that you can get into to test your might! I am a Rule of Cool kind of DM. If you would like to try something, let me know and we'll find a way to give it a go!

Homebrew rules

My homebrew rules are as follows; -Healing Potions can be drunk one of two ways Spending your Action and Bonus Action will means half of your dice will automatically be maximum For example: A basic healing potion's roll is 2D4+2 For a minimum of 4 hit points gained back With my Homebrew Rule, when both the action and bonus action are spent A basic healing potion the potions roll is swapped to 1D4+6 For a minimum of 7 hit points returned. OR The player can drink the potion as an action and roll as normal -Critical Hits deal double the damaged rolled and will usually cause a further detriment to the opponent beyond damage(Stunning them, Breaking/Chipping armour) -Player Vs Player combat is only allowed under duelling circumstances where both parties have agreed -Party theft is strictly forbidden unless the stolen item is quickly returned; it never ends well and usually leaves the victim upset and disappointed thus potentially ruining their experience. -These rules are also applied to your opponents

How WorldDancer creates a safe table

TL;DR Safety Tools: Consent Checklist(Deck of Player Safety if requested), Breaks, X N and O Cards, Session 0 and Aftercare. More Details Bellow: Consent Checklist -I’ll be sending out a consent checklist that covers different themes and topics that might come up in our game. You’re welcome to fill it out while we build your character, or take your time with it, but I’ll need it back before we begin our actual adventure. If one or more players prefer the party can use the anonymous "Deck of Player Safety" to steward the same results with more privacy. Breaks -If a session is set to reach 2 hours, there will be a 5-10 minute break around the hour mark. If a session is set to reach 3 hours, there will be a 25-30 minute break around the hour and a half mark During these breaks, you are free to do whatever you might need to, bathroom, drink/food etc. This is another time to discuss any concerns with me that have arisen throughout the gameplay if that you would like to talk with me about The use of another safety tool does not constitute a break, you can utilize the other tools whenever you like, and the breaks will still be taken X,N and O Cards -We’ll also be using X, N, and O cards as safety tools. At the start of the game, I’ll explain which emojis we’ll use for them in chat. If at any point you’d rather message me directly, that’s completely fine, I’ll pause right away, make sure you’re comfortable, and we’ll only continue when it feels good to do so. Aftercare -Lastly After the session has ended, I will open the table for discussion and decompression. You can use this time however you wish, including simply leaving the table if that's what you want :)
