Lost In Ravenloft - 5.5E - Night Of The Walking Dead

Creating your character

Characters will be created using the 2024 PH. The extra stat of Sanity from the 2014 DM's guide is used also. We will get together on my discord, in a private channel to talk character creation before the campaign starts. Starting level will be 1 and there should be a mix of classes. There is a free pdf of PH floating around internet.

Preparing for the session

You will accept game, then join my discord and message me stating who you are. https://discord.gg/ppAeqn2X From there I will move you to a private thread for all of us to talk. I use Foundry VTT for the game. You all will eventually make your characters before game day.

What OmegaOmTV brings to the table

I expect players to know their spells and abilities, or have page open when they want to use them. If you are a new player that is ok, I will assist them. I try to do rules as written, but when the game gets bogged down, it goes by the rule of cool. I like the game to keep moving and not get delayed arguing about rules. I do character voices to the best of my ability. I have a predesigned music and sound play set, visual pictures and maps. I try to make a immersive game. You can check my youtube channel to see my Gm style. I strive for visuals and sound.

Homebrew rules

Only 2024 PH classes. All magic (except Cantrips & Necromancy) has a chance to fail, like attacks but the chance is not great, and are modified by spell level and stress The Dark realm hinders non necromantic magic. Fumbles can be positive, and the worst effects are rare. Usually just misscasts. This makes the game more fun I believe. Using Necromancy or doing any dark deeds increase your chances of being taken over by the Dark Realm. I use the Sanity Ability, I also use fear and stress. This is necessary to give the feeling of horror. Exhaustion is too dangerous in 2024 so I nerfed it that each level of Exhaustion reduces rolls by 1, and Exhaustion goes up to 10 before your character dies. But Your character gains exhaustion when they gain stress. I combined the stress to exhaustion. Feel free to join my discord and discuss things before committing to the game. I am open to players suggestions and requests. And can change rules to accommodate.

How OmegaOmTV creates a safe table

We will discuss player safety in the pregame discord or in voice. Players are free to voice any concerns. I as a Gm do not go deep into things that might effect people. I have a good sense of players feelings. I have been doing this for years and I have never had a problem.
