About the adventure
I will be running the module Dungeon of the Mad Mage but will have the style of a reality TV show. Scenes of interviews will be interspersed during pivotal moments in game for levity. I ran this module in this style before and it was a big hit. First campaign will run from level 1 to level 10. After a break to prepare, a second campaign will begin for level 11 to 20 for players interested.

About me
I've been playing D&D for 10 yrs and running almost immediately after playing. I've come to learn that the correct way to win D&D is when everyone has fun. My goal as a DM is to ensure everyone has their moment of winning the big moment for their character in the story. I try to have an emersive game and pull backstory into the game when running. I have no issues with confrontation when it comes to inappropriate behavior at the table and have a 3 strike rule that will have warnings each time and a way to work through issues before they get too bad. All games I run have moments of humor and seriousness.

Creating your character
Characters will be created in session 0 and all main classes will be allowed. Starting level at 1, which I am aware is low, it should give time for backstory creation and should be given a week before the beginning of the game. Characters made shouldn't be too over powered and all species and classes from the main books are allowed.
What to expect
Preparing for the session
Games will be played over Discord so everyone will need a discord account. Cameras aren't necessary to play but are appreciated. There is a roll bot in the discord channel but physical dice are fine to use. A 3x5 card or piece of paper for the X, N, and O safety tool is helpful before there start of game. Issues of limits should be brought up before the start of the game or during session 0.
What Eric brings to the table
Voices and accents will be used to portray different characters. Battlemap will be provided and shown in the video chat. Battlemap will be in physical minis or tokens. RAW will be observed along but moments of the Rule of Cool will occur.
Homebrew rules
Bonus action to drink a potion. Crits do max damage. Honor Nat 20s. Death saves rolled by DM. If an action is cool or funny, you can try it!
