About the adventure
In a land of wonder and magic, will you be able to find the truth, and set magic free? Magic is a rare and wondrous blessing granted to only the most noble souls born into the kingdom of Sen’calara, taking many forms from studious wizards to even fire wielding warriors. To foster the growth and potential of this talent, schools have been opened across the nation, where students hope to one day earn a prestigious position in the capital's Academy. Sadly however you failed to gain entry to one of the more powerful or renowned schools, and now find yourself joining a small one made up of misfits and castaways. What will you learn from this humble origin? How will you pass the challenges set by the examiners when they come to test you? And are things really the way they seem, or are there deeper truths waiting to be unearthed?

About me
Hello everyone, I'm James, an English writer, artist and programmer. For almost two decades I have been a DM with a passion for building and designing my own settings and campaigns as I’ve always loved coming up with unique worlds for players to explore, and how they impact it through their own backgrounds and actions. For each of the games I run I make a trailer on my youtube channel, feel free to request any that pique your interest: https://www.youtube.com/@JimGamemaster I write and build my own campaigns, and more recently I've been getting into pixel art and animations. Credit to (https://admurin.itch.io/) for the amazing skeleton I use for my profile.

Creating your character
Characters we'll be built and setup in Foundry. We'll be starting at level 1, but with a free magical experiance and magic origin trait.
What to expect
Preparing for the session
All you’ll need to join the game is a mic, a Discord account and the ability to run Foundry.
What James brings to the table
I’ll be providing tutorials on character creation and how to play, as well as maps, music and drama in my Foundry setup. Many of the tokens in this game will be pixel art and animated, and after the first session I’ll make a pixel token for you.
Homebrew rules
For homebrew, custom races are fine, extra classes and domains just need to be checked by me first. During a combat scene we'll be using Spotlight rotation, which just means everyone has to spotlight before you can spotlight again. As it's likely we'll all be playing togather for the first time I use this method to just make sure everyone is getting their chance to spotlight, until were used to each others flow and how to help spotlight eachother.

Safety
How James creates a safe table
During the session 0 we'll chat about the game and it's tone in more detail, making sure were all on the same page on what sort of game we would like this to be. The initial tone of the game is a little lighter, as the characters settle into their place in the setting. As time goes on though the tone will get more serious, but we'll make plenty of room for their to be times of levity too.
