About the adventure
Ever had your friends complain about your character being to Over Powered? Even when you think you toned it down already? Then, you're invited to the IRON OLYMPICS! A competition over several sessions to determine who is the champion at making the MVP at the table. These rounds will be considered extreme challenges with diverse scenarios and combats. You won't know the challenges, you just have come out on top. Do you think you can out build other Over Powered Champions? Competition includes a wide array of scenarios, not all of which are easily solved with combat. The rounds that primarily consist of combat will include many different kinds of combat in many different kinds of terrain. The challenges that don't have to involve combat, will have a wide variety of ways to solve them. Points will be awarded at the end of each round based on many different factors. Whoever has the most points at the end will be crowned the ultimate Olympian and have bragging rights for the rest of their lives. Additionally, the winner will be awarded with free participation in one campaign of their choice (hosted by me). Competition will begin on January 27, 2026. If you wish to participate, your character will need to be done by then.

Safety
How Khaz creates a safe table
In session zero, I send everyone a consent form to let me know what their preferences/needs are. Ground rules for conduct are laid down in session zero. They will be enforced throughout the campaign. Any issues you have with anyone (including myself) can be handled quickly via Discord's direct messaging system. After each session, I like to gather feedback from everyone and help bring the emotional level down through light-hearted conversation, but nobody is obligated to participate in that portion.
