About the adventure

With chaos closing in on all sides, the Queendom of Comhlar could really, really do with some help right now! This is a drop-in, drop-out, easy-going, West Marches-esque campaign of interconnected one-shots. Each session can be enjoyed as a stand-alone adventure! At the start of each session, you can pick what kind of quest you'd like to go on. Returning players, however, will find more to discover, and can slowly piece together the mystery of why the Queendom's many enemies have all chosen this very moment to strike... ⋆༺𓆩⚔𓆪༻⋆ Ahoy! If you're looking for a campaign's mystery, world-building, and progression, but with the flexibility and shenanigans of a one-shot, this is the game for you! My name is Davey, and I'm a professional and award-winning storyteller, actor, writer, theatre and nerdy music maker, best known for being a cast member at the Twenty-Sided Taven (the official D&D stage show recently at the Sydney Opera House). ❥ This is not a how-to-play game, but if you're a beginner, you are more than welcome! However, I'd recommend only joining once you are familiar with how character sheets work.

About me

Hello! I'm a professional and award-winning storyteller/actor/writer/GM/theatre maker, and recent cast member of The Twenty-Sided Tavern (the official D&D stage show) at the Sydney Opera House! I've been running games for beginner and experienced players for a decade, and run Bards For Hire where I write studio-quality theme songs for RPG characters, campaigns, and parties. I also run the theatre company Ponydog Productions where I basically run LARPs, but call it immersive theatre so it doesn't scare the normies 😂 My games are role-play/character-focused, and I love creating new and bespoke worlds based on the ideas and stories my players want to explore.

Safety

How Davey creates a safe table

CHARACTER CREATION Create a level 3 character! (see below for more details) If you're a returning player, you're of course welcome to use your previous character, or try out a new one! CHARACTER LEVELING We'll be using a variation of XP levelling for character progression. PLAYER EXPERIENCE This game is open to all levels of play. SAFETY TOOLS: Player safety is a BIG THING at my table. Gaming is about play, and you can only play if you feel safe! 🟡 X, N, & O cards can be visual, messaged, or communicated in whatever way is easiest for you. 🟡 There is an optional safety survey via our Discord to let me know of any triggers you'd like to be avoided in-game. 🟡 I am happy to make any accommodations to make the game as comfortable for you as possible. I will never ask for justifications for your preferences, and there are never any judgments from me. We've all lived different lives, and the important thing is to feel safe! Additional safety options are available on request. I am always available to contact, and if there's ever a way I can make the game more enjoyable for you, I'm here for it! NOPE 🔴 Roleplaying sexual harassment or abuse will not be tolerated at the table. ⋆༺𓆩⚔𓆪༻⋆ ~ ~ SOME EXAMPLE SESSIONS ~ ~ It's different every time, but some fun past quests have included: ⚔️ Rescuing a family of gorilla monsters from ambushing poachers, partly by convincing the monsters to throw them as humanoid projectiles. ⚔️ Investigating vanished ships, finding and fighting terrifying eldritch horrors, and absolutely traumatising a cowardly lighthouse keeper (who totally deserved it) ⚔️ Solving a mercantile dispute between two rival towns by kidnapping the nobles responsible and intimidating them into getting married. This somehow worked, and the ceremony was overseen by a chicken. D&D is the best.
