About the adventure

āš”ļø HELL AWAITS āš”ļø Baldur’s Gate teeters on the edge of damnation. The city’s corruption festers, but worse yet, the first layer of the Nine Hells is calling. As the holy city of Elturel vanishes into the void, Baldur’s Gate stands next in line for destruction. Infernal bargains, demonic whispers, and the weight of mortal sin pull you deeper into Avernus. Every choice carries a cost—and every soul has its price. Will you find redemption in the fire and fury, or will you fall? āš”ļø THE DEPLOYMENT āš”ļø šŸ›”ļø Starting Level: 1 (Campaign runs to approx. Level 13). šŸ“œ System: D&D šŸ“š Character Options: All official D&D Beyond sourcebooks allowed. 🧪 Homebrew: Case-by-case basis (Let’s talk!). 🩸 Tone: Dark intrigue, infernal corruption, and high-stakes heroics. āš”ļø THE COMMITMENT āš”ļø Session 0: Free (Character Creation & Safety Check). Session 1: $6 Introductory "Test the Waters" Session. Session 2+: $15 per session thereafter. Steel your resolve. Once you cross into the Hells, there is no turning back.

About me

Hello, I’m Anya. šŸ‘‹ Lead Storyteller at AMJR-GAMING. I spent years as a player feeling like the best story beats were often held back by clunky rules or technical hitches. Eventually, I decided to jump behind the screen and build the games I always wanted to play: sessions that feel like a cinematic epic rather than a maths lesson. I’m currently guiding my 5th and 6th groups through Descent into Avernus. Because I know the Nine Hells like the back of my hand, I don’t have to spend the session with my nose in a book—I’m free to focus entirely on your characters and the "Rule of Cool." I’m not here to be your adversary; I’m the narrator who’s cheering you on and setting you up for those massive "hero moments." How we’ll play: I’m a massive IT nerd and Linux devotee, but I use that side of my brain to keep things simple and stress-free for you. We use the official D&D Beyond tools because they’re reliable and easy to use. To keep the story moving, I use Theatre of the Mind for exploration, but when the swords come out, I provide clean, high-contrast black and white maps for combat. This ensures everyone knows exactly where they are without the visual clutter or lag of heavy VTTs. To keep us all on the same page, I’ve built a custom website called The World Binder where our lore lives, and I provide easy Google Doc templates to make your note-taking a breeze. I want our time at the table to be about the story and the laughs, not troubleshooting software! When I’m not in the Hells, I’m usually tinkering with my homebrew sandbox, The Isle of Hesperos, a persistent world out in the Trackless Sea where my long-term players leave a permanent mark on the map. I love meeting new players, whether you've been rolling dice for decades or you're just starting out. If you fancy a chat or want to see the World Binder, come say hello on Discord: Discord Tag: anyathegm Server Link: https://discord.gg/JRtTX5gdJQ

Safety

How AnyaTheGM creates a safe table

āœ… Session 0: We will align on expectations, tone, and specific content "Lines and Veils." Everyone starts on the same page before the first roll is made. āøļø Breaks: A scheduled break is included every session. Anyone can call for an additional break at any time—no questions asked. To maintain a focused and respectful group dynamic: āŒ No PvP: Characters are expected to work together; internal party combat is not permitted. āŒ No Romance: Both PC-to-PC and PC-to-NPC romance are off-limits. We keep the focus on the odyssey and the mysteries of the Isle. šŸ›”ļø Digital Safety: We utilise digital safety tools via Discord and D&D Beyond to ensure everyone feels comfortable throughout the session.
