Prophesies and Shattered Hearts- a level 20 All Day DnD Oneshot

Creating your character

Character creation will be done before the game. If you can create your character sheet on roll20 that would be the best, but I also accept Dndbeyond sheets that can be linked to roll20. This game allows both 2014 and 2024 builds for character creation. No mixing/matching between the two, keep to either ruleset. Counterspells will be determined by the caster's build. My last all day oneshot was run this way to great success with half the group using 2024 and half using 2014. Character creation rules: Level 20 Point buy (27) If your background does not come with a feat, choose one free feat Sourcebooks allowed: Dungeon Master's Guide, Player's Handbook, Fizban’s Treasury of Dragons, Mordenkainen’s Tome of Foes, Sword Coast Adventurer’s Guide, Tasha’s Cauldron of Everything, Volo’s Guide to Monsters, Xanathar’s Guide to Everything, Van Richten's Guide to Ravenloft, Monsters of the Multiverse, Tome of Heroes, Glory of the Giants, Astral Adventurer's Guide, Book of Many Things, Planescape Magic items: Allowed from sourcebooks above 2 legendary 5 very rare or lower banned items: wave, whelm, blackrazor, potions of giant size, talisman of pure good, iron flask, broom of flying, adamantine armor, mizzium armor, bag of devouring, horns of valhalla, manual of golems, guardian emblem, deck of wonder, plate of knight's fellowship, fate dealer's deck, jester's mask, spindle of fate you may not stack tasha class DC items with other tasha class DC items to get a ridiculous DC. choose one you may not stack stat books, you can only benefit from one stat book per stat You will start out with 25,000gp and can buy mundane items from the PHB and the following potions and scrolls: Healing- 50gp /// Climbing- 75gp /// Animal Friendship- 100gp /// greater healing- 100gp /// water breathing- 100gp /// superior healing- 1000gp /// supreme healing- 5000gp /// invisibility- 5000gp /// haste, heroism- 10,000gp /// invulnerability- 15,000gp Cantrip- 25gp /// 1st- 75gp /// 2nd- 150gp /// 3rd- 300gp /// 4th- 500gp /// 5th- 1000gp. /// 6th-10,000gp /// 7th- 15,000gp // 8th- 20,000gp You cannot buy an ‘upcasted’ version of a scroll. The spell must be the level of the spell scroll.

Preparing for the session

Players need a working mic and access to a computer. The game will be held over discord and roll20, so you will need an account on both. Players will need to make their character sheet ahead of time in roll20 or dndbeyond. If dndbeyond, they will need to have the chrome extension beyond20.

What Dev Alva brings to the table

If you play with me, you'll be playing with one of the most recommended dms on the site, as well as one of the most experienced dms for balancing high level play in 5e. I have six level 20 oneshots I run regularly on SPG, as well as several ongoing level 20 campaigns. Before I became an SPG dm, I was running level 16-20 adventures for years. I use unique monsters, strategies, and my experience to deliver an amazing game. I run my games RAW, or rules as written. If you have a rules question for me that I haven't come across before or forgotten about, I will pause the game momentarily to look it up and make sure everything is according to the spirit of the rules. I reference Sage Advice/Jeremy Crawford tweets, but have my own opinions as well (such as the interpretation of magic missile, shield master feat, and dispel magic).

Homebrew rules

You can drink a potion as a bonus action.
