About the adventure
Hello Adventurers! Do you seek out epic adventurers and need an experienced Dungeon/Game Master to guide your way? Are you a new or veteran player in need of a game that’s a safe place?! Then look no further! Hi there I’m Dorga! I have been a DM/GM for 7 years now, and been a paid one for 3 years now. I am a disabled veteran who is a big nerd and looking to run NIMBLE games! A healthy mix of roleplay, combat, and exploration! Homebrew/3rd party content can be discussed and possibly allowed! Also I tend to follow the rules, but there is ABSOLUTELY room for RULE OF COOL! Campaign description- In the sleepy coastal town of Sandpoint, evil is brewing. An attack by crazed goblins during the annual Swallowtail Festival quickly turns into something more ominous as the shadows of a dark past come back to haunt the town—and perhaps all of Varisia. Can the heroes stop the awakening of a legendary runelord and keep him from reclaiming his lost kingdom of greed? The Rise of the Runelords Adventure Path begins with a goblin attack and takes players on an epic journey through the land of Varisia as they track a cult of serial killers, fight depraved backwoods ogres, stop an advancing army of stone giants, delve deep into ancient dungeons to reclaim weapons of unbelievable power, and finally go up against an all-powerful wizard-king in his ancient mountaintop city.

View Profile →Character creation
Creating your character
Characters can be created before, during, or after session 0. Heroes will start off at level 1 and will use the standard stat array presented in the Nimble Core Rules book. Players should refer to both the Nimble Core Rules and the Nimble Heroes books, which information from them will be provided if player does not have them.
What to expect
Preparing for the session
You will need a discord account and a properly working microphone. The link to the discord server will be provided for in direct or private messages and we will create the characters and play using FoundryVTT.
What John brings to the table
I usually provide a healthy mix of roleplay, combat, and exploration for my games and try to split up them up evenly when I can during a session. For the most part I tend to stick to the rules, however I will NOT step in the way of rule of cool and am always open to players trying out wacky ideas. I also provide music via a music bot on discord. And yes, you can control the volume of the music bot or mute it all together if you do not wish to have music.
Homebrew rules
You have session inspiration which is a free reroll. That means for the session you have one inspiration dice you can use at anytime. You have the possibility to get another one if you do something cool. However these inspiration dice do not carry over and reset back to one each session. No other house rules yet for Nimble but can discover and discuss more when we play!
