About the adventure
The ultimate dungeon crawl game in the ultimate fantasy city. Mad Mage is the only official title that takes the player from Level 5 to Level 20 with the potential for more advemtires in Waterdeep, the biggest city on the Sword Coast. We will have multiple quests, multiple options and multiple villain's! In this version the sky is the limit, allowing players to team up with both good factions, evil factions, good guilds, bad guilds, and everything in between. :👀: 🐉Classic Start : You start in the biggest bar in the world, that is the entrance to the biggest dungeon in the world, in the biggest city in the world, and you meet your allies and party and dive into a multile level dungeon! :☠: No punches pulled: Beginner or Expert, the dice are always telling a story, I roll all dice in front of players, so we all react to what happens together. That means I can not save your character, so always be careful of your decisions, and it is okay to sometimes run away. :🕍: Your adventure, your way; We play from Level 5-20, with the option to continue further. Each player can choose from multiple Factions inside the city to ally with, all the usual and bonus non-traditional guilds including both the Zhentarim and Xanathar guilds, each with unique progressive quests and rewards from each faction. :🏆: Mad Mage is the perfect game to enjoy with a group, it gives the chance for everyone to shine and make it all the way to level 20! :⚔: Highly Tactical DM, allows characters to enjoy multiple aspects of the VTT experience

About me
My name is Inocencio , I go by Ino or Soramus. I have over 30 years experience behind the screen. I am 39 years old. I have been a professional DM since August 2019 (when I discovered roll 20) clocking over 8000+ hours on roll20 with 90% being paid games. I continue to try and know what I am doing and am consistently trying to get better. I have joined Start Playing to expand my experience and to meet and play with new players. I have run almost every module there is and have written homebrew with a lot of tactical battles that really maximize 5e. I have run other systems at all times of the day with a plenty of players over the years and am looking forward to playing new games with new people, if you are new or have a group I specialize in starting a great campaign with a promise to see it through as your DM to to the finish.

Creating your character
We will make characters during session 0 or before since this is Waterdeep so you have a lot of choices for creation, there will be no limits to any character you wish to play, we will a standard rolling system of 4d6r1, you roll twice taking the best set, but you can reroll stat sets that are below a total of 72. Otherwise we meet with Level 5 characters in the Yawning Portal.
What to expect
Preparing for the session
You will need a microphone, and a discord account, we will connect to the foundry and the forge once we are all together. We will have a unique discord channel along with a paid discord server for quality voice.
What Soramus brings to the table
I will bring the unique experience of running this campaign multiple times, including finishing the campaign three times to conclusion, and am still running a campaign that started in dragon heist and continuing in the mad mage dungeon, that is on session 123 as of 12/19/2023, and close to it's conclusion so I wanted to start another one! We will play on roll20 and using my upgraded discord server, I promise a unique gaming experience with the remix and what I bring in DM ability.
