About the adventure
Luyarnha. The Radiant City. The Rot Within. The Madhouse. You will play a Hunter, a bastion against the darkness. The once great city of Luyarnha is on the precipice of failure. An eldrich plague spreads from the sewers, the church burns that which they can't contain, and the Scions of Ascension persue progress at any cost. This game features five distinct mini-adventures, with time skips between them so you can experience your character's story from their first hunt, to the last. The exact level range is subject to discussion, with options such as additional pets, or NPC companions available depending how challenging an experience you want. ⏱ Pacing: 1 long DM post each day in the evenings (UK time), and a shorter out-of-character message in the morning to reply to any @ pings. Additional replies/posts are subject to my availability throughout the day.

About me
Hi there, my name is David, and I wear many hats: nerd, nurse, father and more, but on this website the crown I wear is that of a Dungeon Master! I specialize in running 1:1 duets play-by-post games, as well as high level tier 3-4+ play. I’m based in the UK and am broadly available to talk 8 pm- 12 pm UK time, which is 3 pm - 7pm EST. This is the time window that I write most my daily posts. My pricing varies by the amount of skill and time that go into a game, where simpler games such as starter adventures cost $40 a week, and more complex games like my level 20+ games cost $60 a week.

Creating your character
Characters should be created on dnd beyond with the beyond 20 extension/avrae in use to roll in the virtual tabletop or in discord. Point buy or rolling for stats as your preference. All official content is permitted. Options like a pet/companion will be discussed at character creation, as well as any homebrew or 3rd party options. Characters will start with an uncommon magic item, and get an additional item of increasing rarity after each of the five mini adventures.

How David creates a safe table
I will be using the RPG Consent Checklist as a safety tool, which players should fill out beforehand and send to me on discord. I also will talk to you 1:1 before we start about expectations, logistics and any safety concerns not covered by the checklist. Players can pause billing at any point if they want to take a break from the game, for any reason, and their seat will be waiting for them when they are ready to play again.
