About me
I've been playing 5e with other systems scattered in since 2020, and GM'd a homebrew game since 2022, completing the campaign after 2 1/2 years. I am married to another GM and raising a youngster who is as nerdy as we are.

Creating your character
Create a level 3 character in D&D Beyond using standard array before the game. All books are available, but no homebrew for character creation please. Pre-generated characters will also be available.
What to expect
Preparing for the session
Free accounts or higher on Discord and D&D Beyond will be needed. Links to join the campaign will be sent out upon signup. Discord will be used for text chat and for voice and optional video during the game. D&D Beyond will be used for character sheets, dice rolls, and maps
What Jessica brings to the table
Cool always is #1 at my table! I voice characters as much as possible and highly encourage role-play. Atmospheric music will be used at thematic moments.
Homebrew rules
Potions for yourself are a free action, feeding a potion to another is a bonus action, but choosing to use a full action on a potion guarantees the full effect.

How Jessica creates a safe table
Lines and veils Google document will be linked on Discord, X card during game can be either verbal or in chat as the player's choice if at any time something is making any player uncomfortable, and I will be watching the video chat to stop and handle ASAP.
