About the adventure
The gods are dying, and the world is bleeding. Long ago, the gods sealed away the chthonic realms — vast under-realities filled with nightmares and void-born things. But one of their own betrayed them, threatening to shatter the boundary and unleash corruption. Creatures of void and hunger spill through the cracks between realms wreaking devastation and corrupting the denizen populace. The divine pantheon, once the stewards of balance, now wages a secret war through mortal champions. The gods still speak, but their voices are divided, their truths uncertain. Beneath their celestial struggle, the land festers with chthonic corruption — and the line between life, death, and divinity thins with each passing day. In this campaign, players will explore a world on the brink of collapse and uncover the forgotten history of a forgotten realm. They will hunt voidborn horrors, forge uneasy alliances with capricious gods, and recover hidden relic of immense power. Every victory risks drawing the attention of the darkness that broke the world, and every choice tips the scales of creation itself.

About me
Hi I'm Ron, I've been GMing for 3 years and TTRPGs have become my entire life instantly. I'm a Gm who loves sandboxes, worldbuilding, and helping players bring their characters to life. My tables are built around collaboration and communication. I focus on creating immersive adventures where everyone gets a chance to shine. Whether it’s epic battles, heartfelt roleplay, or chaotic party hijinks, I aim to make every session memorable and full of energy.

Creating your character
We will make characters and meet each other during the free session 0. Stats will use standard array for 5e, you will start at level 1 but level up quickly. Character's will be made on paper/ google doc and I will pull all of that into Foundry. Try to stick to 5e official, any (UA) content must be run by me for approval or disapproval. If you would like to run something homebrew please show me and I can adjust it to be in line with 5e.
What to expect
Preparing for the session
I will message you with a link to the discord server and foundry website. Please have a discord account and a working mic.
What Ron brings to the table
I try to do character voices and utilize fitting ambient music. Combat will be scaled to what I believe your styles are. I use the rules to provide us with structure but I will often overturn those rules to make sure you get your moment to shine. Rules are made to be broken.
Homebrew rules
-Using consumable items such as throwables, poisons, and potions will all be bonus actions, I will allow you to use them as an action if you ask but only 1 of the same item per turn. -Critical hits will max roll the original dice and add that to another roll. -When you get downed, you gain a level of exhaustion until long rest. -Long rests are 8 hours and you can only long rest once per 24 hours. -Short rest are 1 hour and you may only short rest twice between long rests. -You can reroll your hit dice on level up if the result is a 1. -Inspiration lets you reroll any roll, including damage rolls, healing, or wild magic

How Ron creates a safe table
I will ask the players about to message me their Lines and Veils privately. In session 0, we will go over those lines and veils and cover the tone and content of the campaign. We will do a fade to black or cut away from anything uncomfortable
