About the adventure
--- THE STORY --- Everyone in both kingdoms (except the betrothed) are counting on this union. So you'd best hasten over to your local dragon cave and "borrow" 2 new shiny bling rings. Duty calls, they don’t want to hear any excuses about unclimbable cliffs, hordes of minions and cliptomanic dragons. Be back before they walk down the aisle, because the ceremonalist is marrying someone today. --- GAMEPLAY --- You play a groomsman to prince Astro or bridesmaid to Princess Snaggletooth. This is a comedy adventure, so bring your crazy characters. The game is divided into 4 scenes and with daily posting by players and DM the game is expected to last between 4 and 6 weeks in length. So if your new to play-by-post format this is a good introduction. We use Owlbear Rodeo for combat maps. --- PLAY BY POST ACTIVITY --- PBP are slow but enjoyable. To keep things flowing for everyone, I will make a substantial post every 24-36 hours to move the game along. Between that time, I will pop into the game and answer questions and make comments for fun and help players decide their actions. I ask players if they are done in a certain scene before moving on. Players are asked to post in a similar way. Of course, we understand that sometimes life happens and you don't get the time or headspace to meet this commitment. In which case, your character can pause or be run by someone else. There can be audio summaries in Discord to help you catch up if you miss many things. An impression of time difference in PBP vs live games is 2 hours of live games is approximately 1 month PBP. Players game together happily across different life schedules and time zones.

About me
I specialise in running Dungeons & Dragons adventures and I like to inject a bit of humour into them all. I follow the nr1 rule that "D&D is about having fun!" I have been doing fantasy games all my life and love making stories for others, and enjoy seeing my players interact. I like to get to know my players and their characters and tweek the story to give them something personal to chew on. For my homebrew adventures I like to use popular cultural references in my games, especially when naming monsters (like a quiz) and crazy NPCs. I use Discord, Owlbear Rhodeo and Theatre of the mind with some AI images to make the experience more immersive. I really like running Play-by-Post adventures as we get to know each other over a longer period of timme and on a daily basis. For me running games is like spending time with people who enjoy each others creativity.

Creating your character
- Level 2 character in D&D Beyond. Any race, Any class - Point buy for stats - Starting equipment. - Anything specific, just ask I will share my full library with you via the campaign link for more options.
The game is expected to last 1 month. It's a fun Short adventure. Excellent for players new to play-by-post format and want to flex their crazy. The game is half way through and it's best you contact me and get signedup for the next round. PLAY BY POST ----------------------- The whole one-shot is delivered via Discord (story) and Owlbear rodeo (maps). Your DM will post the unfolding story at least once a day (probably more). Players then post their interactions and roleplay, roll dice in D&D Beyond and Discord. The DM then responds, and so the adventure reveals. PBP is great for people who find it hard to meet a regular schedule of games, who like to microdose on D&D daily, and who enjoy writing and getting into roleplaying. or who find they cannot access live face-to-face games. With a mobile device, you can play anywhere, anytime. You will NOT NEED to learn Avrea commands. The benefits of play-by-post are: - THOUGHTFUL ACTIONS: Take your time considering your optimal combat move or roleplay interaction. - FRIENDSHIPS: Bond with your fellow players as they become a daily presence in your life - CHARACTER BUILDING: Dive deep into your character as you roleplay through text giving as much detail to their thoughts, responses and personality as the campaign builds. - FLEXIBLE GAMING: Play anytime, anywhere with people across different time zones. No more scheduling the group to meet - WORLD BUILDING: Detailed descriptions and A permanent record of what happened in the campaign builds, so no more arguments about what was said - EVERYONE CONTRIBUTES: In this style of group, your voice and actions are always heard and counted. It's not about who is fastest.

Preparing for the session
