Your group has vowed to solve the mystery while participating in the town's winter games. Can your party solve the case, save the missing people and survive your snow-covered adventure?

Creating your character
Character creation will work by standard array or pre-made character sheet. They will be made beforehand. Beginners who have never created a character before can create their own with my help if preferred.
What to expect
Preparing for the session
Players need a stable internet connection, a webcam, a working microphone, their character sheet, a notepad and a pencil. Sessions will be played over FantasyGrounds (Unity), so the software for that needs to be installed (free demo). An image of your character is optional but appreciated. Dice can be rolled through FantasyGrounds, but I recommend bringing your own dice to the sessions, as rolling yourself is incredibly satisfying. =)
What Doomdecahedron brings to the table
I will bring a Fantasygrounds campaign to join, online battle maps and tokens. If you've provided me with a character image, you will have your own personalised token to move. I play background music during my games on a site called Watch2gether. The link to that will be provided at the start of every session.
