About the adventure
Karapaxa is a sweeping open-world campaign set in a classic high fantasy setting. The scars of a devastating dragon war still shape every kingdom and coast. From the blizzard-wrapped heights of Aetherfang Peak to the turbulent waters of the Pirate Archipelago, the world is alive, rich, and designed to be explored. Players will unravel political schemes, mysterious ruins, ancient magics, and deep-rooted prophecies — or ignore them entirely and chase their own legends. Every town has history, every NPC has a name and a life, and every rumor can lead to adventure. This is a world that reacts to player choices, where exploration is rewarded and curiosity is king. Expect dynamic combat with environmental tools, creative problem-solving, and evolving enemies shaped by the world’s recovering ecosystems. Social encounters matter as much as swordplay, and the campaign blends mystery, character-driven storytelling, and cinematic set-pieces. Whether you’re defending cities under siege, discovering forgotten gods, navigating uneasy alliances, or sailing the open sea to your heart’s content, Karapaxa is your world to live in.

About me
I run games where the story matters and the world immersive, open, and full of endless possibilities. Character, atmosphere, and dynamic fights lead the way. My tables are: • Safe for beginners • Inclusive and LGBTQ+ friendly • Flexible rules, consistent tone • Balanced drama + humor My Strengths: • Bringing characters emotionally to life • Making the world react to player decisions • Giving every player spotlight moments • Creating arcs that feel earned, not force If you’re looking for: • A DM who learns your character deeply • Cinematic vibes and emotional arcs • Choices that change the world • A table that feels like a collaborative story, not a lecture Then you’ll feel at home here. My Style: • Character-driven plots • Consequences that feel earned • Supportive to new players, respectful to experienced ones • Not pretending to be the smartest person in the room • Combat consistently Expectations: Be kind, be curious, and bring a character idea (or I’ll help you make one). Mechanics can be learned along the way. If you want a campaign you’ll remember, where sessions feel like episodes of a show where you’re on the writing team — let’s play My background: BFA in Theater & Perfomance Professional actor Film producer and writer

What Desmond Confoy brings to the table
This is about you! I’m here to ensure you have fun. That you get to explore your imagination. That you feel fulfilled. I received my BFA in Theater and won the presidential award for performance. My characters and dialogue are entertaining but heartfelt and genuine. Ambient music! Intense tactical combat! I stick to the rules but encourage ingenuity and clever approaches, let’s discuss see if we can make it happen. My style is your style. Let’s make worlds reality.
Homebrew rules
• Drinking a potion is: roll for a bonus action, full amount for a full action. • Inspiration is given for a recap of the last session. • A flanked combatant has advantage against them. I’m sure there’s more but I can’t think of it??? And if you don’t like it we can adjust, and tell me yours!

How Desmond Confoy creates a safe table
So this is very important to me. We will go over safety in session zero. But I am always open and available to talk to at any time. Again this is about YOU, and your enjoyment, we will work together to make that happen. I have a Red, Yellow, Green - direct message system in place. And a document of hard yes’s and no’s will go out before the zero session.
