EBERRON // RELIC-HUNTING IN THE MOURNLAND // PULP COSMIC HORROR

Creating your character

We are currently at Level 2. I can help you create your own characters on D&D Beyond if you want (between Session 0 and Session 1), or I can provide you with a pre-generated character. Any of the player options in the Player's Handbook, Xanathar's Guide to Everything, or Tasha's Cauldron of Everything are available, as well as the excellent character options found in Eberron: Rising from the Last War! Races: 🕶 Changelings are clever shapechangers who can disguise themselves as other people. 🧟 Goblinoids—bugbears, goblins, and hobgoblins—ruled Khorvaire long ago, before the madness of the daelkyr undermined them. After serving as mercenaries in the Last War, they now seek a place in the world's new order. 💭 Kalashtar are humanoids bound to spirits from the plane of dreams, imbued with wisdom and telepathic talent. ⚔️ Orcs, along with their half-orc kin, are a fierce people who have fought world-threatening evils for centuries. 🐾 Shifters draw on their distant lycanthropic heritage to manifest bestial traits for short periods of time. 🤖 Warforged are artificial lifeforms built to fight in the Last War. Created as tools of battle, they now seek a place and purpose beyond war. Feel free to roll for your stats, as long as you're using the D&D Beyond dice. Point buy or standard array are great as well. If you get under 70 total, you can reroll. Silvery Barbs is not allowed, folks 😁

Preparing for the session

Required: ✅ Microphone ✅ Free D&D Beyond account ✅ Discord account ✅ Roll20 account ✅ Beyond 20 extension (available on Google Chrome or Firefox) 🙏 Webcam // This will absolutely enhance the experience of the game. Faces are great for improv! Please familiarize yourself with the rules and with your character abilities before the game. I'm available to talk about the safety tools, the fantasy world we'll be playing in, and about our characters' relationships to each other before we play!

What Isaac brings to the table

No matter your experience level, I set a welcoming, inviting tone at my games. Your questions are good, your baggage from your last game is not too much, your experience matters to me! Pull up a chair, friend. I have a Master Tier D&D Beyond Account, which will be a huge benefit to you as you create a character. I also have a pro Roll20 account. I can provide character art of your characters with some guidance from you. I have an Inkarnate account, and I love creating world maps and battle maps for combat. Many (not all) of my games reflect a certain political perspective. If your idea of a good time is leading a revolt of goblins against their bugbear bosses, or infiltrating the upper echelons of the Lords' Alliance to provide intelligence on their plans to the anti-feudal peasants movement, we might like the same things. Not every game or story arc I run will be explicitly anti-imperial, but I like to put bread crumbs on the path in that direction. I’m a musician and an artist at heart, so I love incorporating graphic design elements, musical soundtracks and ambient noise, beautiful maps, and character art to enhance the experience of the game. I think the biggest thing I bring to the table is a flair for the dramatic. I was a musical theater kid in high school. Character voices. Storytelling. High drama. Heartrending conflict. This is the stuff I like. Very much. I try to keep a good balance of combat and roleplaying (40-50% of game time) with some exploration and puzzles thrown in for flavor (5-10%). Sometimes one session ends up with more of one than the others, and I’m happy to adjust based on feedback.

How Isaac creates a safe table

- I have a digital RPG consent form I will distribute before the game so you can let me know what lines and veils you have before we begin. I will not share your responses with anyone. - We use a digital X-card system. If you are ever uncomfortable with the content, click the X-card, and we will pivot, no questions asked! - We take 10 minute breaks about halfway through the session.
