About the adventure
The Delian Tomb is a starter adventure for Draw Steel, built around classic dungeon crawling and goblin-killing quests. It’s designed to teach the core mechanics of the game as we play. We’ll go step by step through how things work. You’ll take on the role of a newly formed band of heroes, ready to help those in need. You’ve just arrived in the sleepy farming village of Broadhurst, looking for adventure. We will also be using the new Codex VTT, made for Draw Steel!

About me
Ever roll a Nat 1 and immediately regret your life choices? I’m here to make those moments unforgettable. Hi, I’m Lucas, a professional Game Master since 2021 (GMing since 2011), with thousands hours of experience running adventures across multiple systems. 🎲What’s it like at my table?🎲 "Make me attack roll." "I rolled a 2." (sad player) "That’s a miss." And that’s just the start! 💡Common things you will hear in my sessions:💡 "Wow, you’re all rolling really badly tonight." "You can try it, sure, let's see how it goes." "How did this even happen?" Of course, it’s not all jokes, my role as a GM is making sure everyone is having a good time at the table. Most of my games are all about sitting around, having a good time, invest into the campaign and roll dice. Whether you want a lot of roleplaying, epic combats, or fun banter, I create each session to your group’s style. Some parties come for drama, others for chaos, and some just want to roast my NPC names.

Creating your character
During session 0, we will create characters or you can pick any from the pregen of this adventure. While the adventure has "progressive leveling", where you don't start with all you abilities until you win some encounters, in my experience Directing this adventure I don't think it is necessary; Players will be able to start with all their level 1 abilities. If it gets too crunchy, I will help you out and we can do "progressive leveling" for you. Don't worry, it doesn't affect much of your character's capabilities during game.
The whole group is new to Draw Steel! Everyone will be learning how to play the system together.
What to expect
Preparing for the session
• Decent microphone • Decent internet • Consistent schedule. • Discord to use voice chat (account is required). • Steam app and account (you will need it to run Codex).
What Lucas brings to the table
I will try to find the highest resolution maps to use and have hundreds of music in different playlists to use.

How Lucas creates a safe table
We will have a Session 0 before the game starts to discuss characters and expectations. The break happens in the middle of the session, for 15 minutes. After most sessions, I will ask what the players want from the rest of the campaign, and what they want less of.
