There's a blight going in the Realms... First stage is getting sick, second is becoming a zombie, and if you're really unfortunate to survive those two stages, you'll eventually become an ooze. You've been hired by Irony of Candlekeep to help solve various cases of mystery while the scholars of Candlekeep figure out how to solve the blight.

About me
I enjoy playing dnd, have since I was a young girl, and started playing dnd again a bit when I was nineteen. When the pandemic started, I decided to look for one thing that I could do online...play dnd. I've been playing 5th edition rather consistently since then. Have completed three campaigns, and one of those was one I dmed for my friends. I decided to start dming professionally after hearing my friend and several other dm's at Dragon Con, about professional dming. I am currently dming a module campaign of Candlekeep with my own characters added and own story woven into the background of the game. I am brewing up a homebrew, with 5th edition rules mostly, but with a few things changed. I plan on seeking out other games that I am interested in and possibly dming them in the future; Call of Cthulu, Dragon Age, Doctor Who, and a few more. If your curious about my dm style, I love to role play it out and I do love combat. Not so much murder hoboing it out, but some times, it could get a little heavy with combat. My NPC's have backstories, and most of them are romancable but that means rolling some percentage die and taking risks...as we all do in love. My players have said that my games are a fair variety with a mix of laughs and good times.

Safety
How Jess creates a safe table
I ask at the start of my games what players are comfortable with, lines and veils. Lines are hard nopes for what players will accept in a game, like animal harm is a big one. Veils are things you don't mind having around the game but don't want to experience yourself, like burning buildings. For me, it's scarabs because they crawl under your skin and omg, ew.
