About the adventure
🎺Celebrate your love for roleplaying either as a newcomer or long time veteran! ⛵This is an epic campaign in an adjacent Faerun, where everything is not exactly as the Forgotten Realms imply. 🦘Play through the levels 3-12 ☃️Be taken care of at a safe table! ____ The piercing cold winds of midwinter bash against the shut doors of a lightly lit hut in Bryn Shander. Some snow is making it in through the cracks in the window, yet her face is flush with excitement. She has found it, finally a lead on the tome of her ancestor. The great wizard whose name has been dragged in the mud through centuries. If only she hadn't ran her body ragged upon this search, the only thing she had left—a sack of coin and to give away ownership of the tome. Now she needed to find adventurer's to save her ancestors legacy.

About me
Heya! I'm Vlue (he/him) a 30+ Finnish game master. I work in video games, production and design as my focus. I've been running TTRPG's for 16 years, on average above one session a week. I've other passed or approaching the 1000 sessions mark. I love deep stories, a variety of characters and a sizeable helping of silly. Combat is kept brisk and with moments of interest, so that it stays away from the dull repetitiveness. Lets play, laugh and cry together!

Creating your character
We will create characters together during session 0, and I'll help you create one separately if you join afterwards. Array, Point Buy or Rolling There are also premade characters available for those who just want to roleplay and not engage in the nitty gritty of creating characters!
One of the players will be writing as their main form of communication
What to expect
Preparing for the session
Check that your microphone is working and check that you would be happy to listen to the quality for 3 hours every week. Have a discord and roll20 account. Discord links will be provided as you join the game. I will be using a webcam, it is not needed for anyone else but you are welcome to!
What Vlue brings to the table
I will provide you with living NPC's and an interwoven story. There will be both heartwarming moments and that tightness in your chest as the somber music comes on. Your character's lives are heavily reflected in sessions: events from your past, family, needs and wants. Roll20 pro and all official 5.5e content. Ambient music, and we will be doing a ton of roleplaying. Combat exists but is there to help tell a story rather than a focus.

How Vlue creates a safe table
We have a session 0 where we go through lines and veils that I have asked for prior, which can be added to whenever. We use digital X cards(button prompts, macros and dm's) We do aftercare. My DM's are always open and I am ready to jump out and in of the game as many times as is needed for the players to feel comfortable.
