What MDC brings to the table
This game is a race against the clock, so there will be some unique mechanics to manage that. Generally speaking, I embrace "The Rule of Cool," so be creative and have fun. That's the most important part. I usually do voices, and will add some background music and/or sound effects from time to time. We will use DNDBeyond.com for characters, campaign management, and maps.
