About the adventure
A chill down your spine, a pit in your stomach, the gaze of something beyond this realm has glimpsed you, it knows you and has found you mildly entertaining; stand tall, be steadfast as the God of Secrets, Vecna watches you and finds your struggle amusing.. Years have passed, through endless adventure or study, you have gained power both within yourself and with those around you. Your name is known and spoken of between equally powerful folk, nobles and lords have sought out your aid in the past and they still do. As of now you've received a request from the Lord Protector of Neverwinter, Dagult Neverember, trouble is brewing and he requires the aid of powerful individuals who can also work while keeping things hushed, the city has had enough troubles as is, it doesn't need to deal with more; however no one knows of the true dangers that are rumbling just out of sight, and no one anywhere is truly prepared for it.. The Whispered One is on the move and the realms aren't ready for what he has in store.. ▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄ This run of the game offers 18+ Content, potential romance, sensual themes; spicy RP with NPCs and other PCs should it be a group game. Boundaries and comfort levels will be discussed before the game begins or before a player joins, the boundaries of players and DM are held as top priority and can be reevaluate at a person discretion.

About me
I believe most can understand where I come from, number of years ago one way or another found myself hearing about D&D and of course thought one way or another about it; but taking that first step, that risk of being silly or outrageous, to let one's self dive into absurd fantasies with friends or even strangers, it was and still is fully worth it. Taking a chance to lose yourself in fantasy, in daydreams, in worlds where you can be the hero or villain for a bit, to live another life; where you can be the Charming and Dashing Savior, the Herculean Warrior, or the Princess who got locked away in a Wizard's tower and decided to do something about it. While the waking world is already crazy and truly ridiculous, nothing wrong losing yourself in another where you decide how things go with a simple roll of the dice.. After bit over a decade as a player, I've decided to try my hand at the metaphorical wheel, to be a DM for both new and seasoned adventures, offering to help pilot the story of wandering adventurers in a PbP format; I tend to lean towards Roleplay heavy, weaving together different official content and modules along with possible homebrew and your character’s backstory, I strive to run games that are character-first and allow your choices to impact the narrative. I welcome players, new to play-by-post, D&D, or both. I'm patient and enjoy teaching. My table is safe, inclusive and welcoming of LGBTQA, PoC, and neurodivergent players; let’s go on adventure..
View Profile →Character creation
Creating your character
Character creation starts once you've chosen to join, you don't need any ideas or character before hand fully setup before hand, will go over the main bits and either craft your character or weave them into the story of the module with of course some fun twist and turns that will hopefully not just bring your character to life but allow for story-bits to be brought up or dealt with later on as we play. Starting level will be 10th, unless we decide otherwise during on-boarding. Stats can be rolled in server or you can use point buy or the modified standard array: 17 16 15 13 11 9. We'll mainly be using Discord as this game is text base - Play-by-Post. Either D&D Beyond or Roll20 can be used character sheets or even just making a sheet on the server itself is fine, this is something we can go over; I do plan to use one site or the other for any combat but for the most part the game is Theater of the Mind. Finally will be using the 2024 ruleset with legacy materials allowed but the option to use solely 2014 rules is also there, another thing that will be discussed once you're in the game server. The main focus of the game is the story we create together, both with what's within the module and what we weave in; we will work together to tie your character's background into the world and story.
What to expect
Preparing for the session
To prepare, you simply need a Discord account and the desire to write up a fun story together. Having a Roll20 or D&D Beyond account would also be of use for any combat and tracking of sheets; but not mandatory. - Again will go over more in server.
What James/Fallen brings to the table
I provide a organized and safe Discord server where you can be yourself and be around others who simply are looking for the same thing. Will provide links to D&D Beyond/Roll20 campaigns where sheets can be made while sharing what content I can within those two sites. This, like all my games, is PbP (Play-by-post), I'm active throughout the week except on the Weekends where I take time for myself and recharge/plan. In regards to PbP, you can expect my time and patience along side my own creative spark when it comes to the Story and RP between us.
Homebrew rules
• Homebrew is very much an option for character creation. • Can cast more than one leveled spell a turn (Eg: Action: Guiding Blot - Bonus Action: Healing Word) • Drinking a potion is a Bonus Action

How James/Fallen creates a safe table
During on-boarding we’ll have an open discussion about boundaries, comfort levels, and use tools like Lines, Veils, and safe words to ensure everyone feels respected and empowered. The safety and comfort of all those involved is priority number 1.
