About the adventure
Coruscant. It is the height of the Clone Wars. You never imagined you would end up in a prison in the Republic's capital city, but then again you never imagined a violent galactic takeover occurring at the same time either. Perhaps it brings opportunity to escape before the city goes up in flames? You and other "cellmates" begin in Coruscant under undesirable circumstances, but with opportunity knocking at the door to escape. The Force works in mysterious ways. Of course, a galactic plot finds a way to embroil you...out of the oven and into the frying pan...

About me
Welcome! Thank you for considering me as the GM of your game! Some tidbits about me–I am a writer, 3D artist, veteran, and family man. You could consider me a “forever” GM that began running TTRPG campaigns of all sorts some 35 years ago. I have been running sessions on Roll20 for 9 years. I have certainly enjoyed being on the other side of games being a player, but I guess I am addicted to being a GM! What is my GMing style? Every person at my table are respected and valued. I know the rules well and love to help new players. I enjoy helping you with character creation, backstory and other aspects of character concepts. I am as easy-going as they come, so nothing really gets me bent out of shape at any point–but I do ask for respect for all at our table. I enjoy working with the players on the story of their characters and weaving their story into the campaign. I am all about voice acting for the many NPC personalities you will encounter, playing music to set the mood of the scene, and living the “rule of cool” for the sake of story. Most of the games I run are gritty, which I will explain below Ask me about my CUSTOM GAMES!

What to expect
Preparing for the session
You will need a reliable internet connection. I highly recommend headphones with a headset. You will need Discord for voice. You will need a Roll20 account for the VTT.
What GM Underdark brings to the table
MY GOAL My goal is for the entire table to have fun during every session! MY STYLE 35% - Combat 35% - Roleplay 20% - Exploration 10% - Puzzles These percentages are what I typically find myself doing when I GM. But when I start a campaign, I speak with the table about what they want those percentages to look like! I do love for players to be In Character as much as possible. This certainly helps with the session experience! I love GMing tables in which the PCs are a part of major canon events. Death Star blew up? The PCs had a part in that. Lolth went silent? You know the real reason why. PCs are emerging heroes - they should feel like it! When I GM, you get voice acting, dynamic maps and lighting, music, and a focus on the PCs!
