About the adventure
The Wild Beyond the Witchlight (Play-by-Post) The Witchlight Carnival has arrived, full of strange lights, wandering music, and secrets hidden behind every tent flap. Something important was taken from you long ago, and this carnival is the first step toward getting it back. Behind the fun and color waits the Feywild, a place where the rules bend, the tone shifts fast, and every choice carries weight. This adventure is lighthearted, magical, and a little unpredictable. You don’t need deep lore knowledge or heavy mechanics experience. If you want a story-focused game with memorable characters, weird moments, and room to explore, you’re in the right spot. Play-by-Post Format PbP keeps things smooth and flexible. Post when you can, keep the story moving, and never worry about scheduling conflicts. It gives room for better roleplay, clear action, and thoughtful decisions without rushing.

About me
I'm Kenny a Dungeon Master with over 10 years of experience crafting immersive, adventurous campaigns filled with rich roleplay, unexpected twists, and a healthy dose of humor. I love the rules and use them to enhance the story, but I’m no rules lawyer, fun and flow come first. Whether you're new to the game or a seasoned adventurer, I create a welcoming space where characters shine and players feel heard. I’ve trained new hires professionally, so I’m patient and passionate about teaching mechanics, lore, and roleplay techniques to newcomers. Outside the game, I’m into sports, the outdoors, and spending time with family. I’m also a big fan of fantasy literature, philosophy, and the classics, all of which inspire the depth and flavor of my storytelling. If you’re looking for a game that balances epic quests, character-driven drama, and table laughs, I’d love to roll with you.

Creating your character
Character Creation Process 1. Discussion on Discord • We’ll use Discord as the hub for all character creation talk. • This is where you can ask questions, brainstorm concepts, and get feedback from me and other players. • It keeps everything organized and lets us collaborate before finalizing sheets. 2. Build on D&D Beyond • All characters will be created and managed on D&D Beyond. • You’ll get access to the campaign link so your sheet is automatically shared with me and integrated with Avrae for rolls and combat. • D&D Beyond makes it easy to track abilities, spells, equipment, and leveling. 3. Ruleset: 2024 Player’s Handbook • We’ll be using the updated 2024 D&D Player’s Handbook rules. 4. Starting Guidelines • Standard starting level (as set by the module). • Standard equipment or starting gold (your choice). • Ability scores: use the point buy or standard array system from the 2024 rules. • Align your background and motivations with the campaign’s tone—gritty, high‑stakes, and infernal themes. 5. Integration with Avrae • Once your sheet is on D&D Beyond, Avrae will handle rolls directly in Discord. • This keeps combat smooth and lets you focus on strategy and immersive writing rather than math.
