About the adventure

Your party will be a group of relatively new adventurers who are looking for their next big quest, from anyone and anywhere! Create a party that is fresh and looking for a fight to settle. šŸ‘The Wild Sheep has a warning of after having been trapped for over two years, and claims to be something much stronger than what he seems... while initially quite suspicious, the rewards offered are quite tempting! Gold? He says he's got ALL of it. Magic items? He was a wizard who enchanted TONNES of stuff. Expensive experiences? Well, he can't provide that directly, but the gold surely can! His ancient nemesis stole his wizardly tower from him, and held him prisoner. Will you help him get the one item (some sort of wild... okay TOTALLY-NOT-WILD polymorphing wand) that can return his opposable thumbs and true form back to him? Can this sheep rely on his newfound allies (I'm talking about you!)? šŸ¦ā€šŸ”„This game is intended for newbies and intermediate players (but always, veterans are welcome!). Create level 5 characters, with no restrictions (homebrew/3rd party subject to approval) on class and race (but stick to either 2014 or 2024 rules!). This one-shot is whacky, and chaos is sure to ensue!

About me

Hey there, adventurer! If you’re looking for an epic adventure to go on, for something intriguing to unravel, or for scary beasties to eat your character, you’ll find something at my table that is up your alley. I'm Josh (he/him), better known on the internet as Fried Dice. You might've seen me stream my Southeast Asian inspired games on Twitch, or if you live in little red dot called Singapore, you might've played in my games in-person! I’ve been running games professionally for over-half a decade now, and have taught hundreds of new players, shared tables with long-time veterans, and of course everyone else in between. šŸšCommunity Having run games on twitch, I’ve cultivated a community of TTRPG gamers across the globe. All varieties of experiences, backgrounds, and upbringings have come together and cultivate a safe and welcoming space. šŸŽ²Experience I've ran over 20 campaigns to completion, both homebrew and pre-published campaigns. I've taught hundreds of people how to play D&D from running dozens of Learn to Plays. I primarily run online games on a Foundry, with both animated and static maps. I've run over 100+ online sessions, even more in-person games, encompassing one-shots, mini-arcs, and over 20 campaigns to completion. I’m always looking to learn new TTRPG systems and exploring new ideas. I would love to run games where on top of having fun, everyone grows a little. 🫚Fun and Spice I've been described as an Enabler Game Master by my players, and that fits the bill! I'm all about figuring out what the party wants to do, and making sure it happens. Wanna start a fantasy fast food chain? Let's get there. Want to turn into a dragon? We'll have to work hard for it, but it's not impossible! Do you want to feel like Frodo and the fellowship from Lord of the Rings? Let's make that happen. If all this sounds right up your street, the come by, and let’s have an amazing and memorable adventure together. Bring along a good attitude and respect for the fellow human, and you’ll find yourself right at home. ✨ CURRENTLY AVAILABLE for online games across multiple time zones

Character creation

Creating your character

Create a character on foundry VTT, drag and drop. You can let me know if you need help via discord! No restrictions, and I'm open to exploring third party material or homebrew. Create a whacky character and get ready to go on a ride of twists and turns!

Safety

How Fried Dice (Josh) creates a safe table

I will primarily use an X card, and for campaigns I will also use a Lines and Veils document. If required, I will be available for any aftercare that players may need.
