About the adventure
The local protector of the forest, a spring Eladrin named Vael, has gone missing from the Neverwinter Wood. The druids of the Emerald Enclave have found the likely cause: a local portal leading into the Feydark, a twisted part of the Feywild ruled by the unseelie fey, malevolent and capricious faerie folk. You are part of a small group of adventurers, tasked with investigating what lays beyond the portal. The Emerald Enclave asks that you rescue Vael if possible, and if not then to at least find a way to seal the portal and save Neverwinter Wood from becoming a hunting grounds. The Emerald Enclave promises each adventurer a single favor in return, should it be within their power to grant. Will you take up the challenge? ----- 📖Each Player will be able to choose from a list of premade characters, or import their own from D&D Beyond! 🗺️Featuring beautiful full color maps from the incredible artists at Czepeku, please check out their patreon at "www.patreon.com/czepeku" 🎲Battlemaps come complete with: personalized tokens, Foundry VTT based lighting, a high degree of combat automation, along with soundtracks and ambience to help set the mood!

About me
Hi there! You can call me Stern, I'm an old Dungeons and Dragons player become DM. I started my journey with 3.5e and jumped straight into 5e when I decided to start hosting games for friends. I've been running a long-term, rule of cool, easygoing D&D game for close friends over Discord from 2020 up to the present. I'm a big fan of Foundry VTT, and love using its lighting system, special effects and music to help makes the whole experience memorable. I personally think games should be fun, with the occasional dramatic moment for some tension. While I always prefer a little levity, I will always respect serious character moments. I do my best to 'yes and' player choices so long as they're within the realm of possibility. I encourage players to come to the table with: a backstory (something they won't mind touching on at some point in the game, this can and should include living friends or family members), short, medium and long term goals for the story, and a healthy appetite for hijinks! I believe that compelling stories are character driven, especially when it comes to any form of TTRPG. Characters and players are at the heart of what makes this sort of game so enjoyable, and their choices should shape how the story flows.

How Stern creates a safe table
✔️When we first meet, we'll be sure to go over Lines and Veils and discuss the themes of the story to make sure you're comfortable with everything going forward. ✔️Everyone will be expected to be courteous towards each other, respecting the Code of Conduct of StartPlaying.games. Players who are disrespectful towards others will be warned, and ultimately booted if they continue to harass other players. ❌There will be no PvP/theft/emotional abuse/discrimination between characters in our game, the players are a team that are expected to work together in our adventures. Arguments and discussion between characters are entirely normal, even friendly sparring matches, but we won't be doing PVP of any sort.
