About the adventure
The heroes had succeeded in thwarting the return of the First Lich. Its cult uprooted, the fanatics defeated, its relics secured. But as the dust settles after a bloody conflict spanning multiple kingdoms ... new shadows begin to emerge. An undead who thirsts for more than just blood to satiate his sanguine appetite. Confront the shadows that grasp at the heart of the city of New Rorschach, liberate the locals from oppression, and uncover secrets perhaps better left buried. Plunge into the depths of the Underdark. Pierce the veil into the Shadowfell. Join our quest to uncover ancient truths, forge alliances, and stand against the rising darkness. 🔻🔻🔻🔻🔻🔻🔻🔻🔻🔻🔻🔻 It's the RP-Heavy, Action-Packed game you've been looking for! Curse of Strahd or Eve of Ruin? Why choose between the two? This campaign delivers strong elements of both. This campaign is still pretty new. And if you're seeing this post, it means we have a seat available, potentially for you! It's a wonderful and welcoming group, so don't be afraid to reach out! 🔺🔺🔺🔺🔺🔺🔺🔺🔺🔺🔺🔺 The setting is, at its core, a traditional fantasy setting centered around extraplanar threats to the world and is designed to hit on a few different genres: Mystery and Intrigue, Swashbuckling Adventure, Gothic Horror, and Cosmic Horror. At the center of it all - the campaign focuses on two main themes: Rebirth and Memories. What does it mean to live and to die, and how do our memories connect us to the world and to one another?

What to expect
Preparing for the session
Camera not mandatory, though I will be on camera as often as I can. A microphone will be needed, please use Push To Talk if you are in a space with background noise. You'll need a discord account and a Roll20 account, both are free. You will need to have a character created before the beginning of the session, please reach out to me if you need assistance. Ideally, characters will be created and kept on Roll20, though if you prefer to have them created on DNDBeyond and ported over into Roll20, that is fine with me - I'll just need a link to your character sheet. Send me character art for your character!!
What Daemon, Your Best Friend brings to the table
A portal to transport you into another world full of adventure. Active support for character creation management throughout the course of the campaign. A willingness to listen and adapt to the whims of my players. An open mind and desire for everyone to have fun! Also I make custom maps for my home game and a load of fun homebrew mechanics and features.
