About the adventure

Are you ready to dive into the harsh and unforgiving world of Dark Sun? Join us for an epic campaign set in the city of Tyr, ruled with an iron fist by the Sorcerer-King Kalak. In a world marred by a thousand years of corruption and stagnation, a group of uncommon Athasians will rise to change the course of history and usher in the Age of Heroes, or die trying. Hello, Adventures, I have spent some time retrofitting the classic Dark Suns story into 5e. This is one of TSR's most violent, dark fantasy stories ever published. If you are ready to face the blistering heat and horror that waits in Athas! JOIN NOW! I also own all published modules and box sets for this world, so we as a group can decide to continue after finishing the original box set. As a member of this party, you will be receiving access to all Dark Sun Content. Please understand, because this adventure was originally written for 2nd/3rd edition and has been retrofitted to fit 5e, there will be some homebrewing.

About me

Hello folks if anyone is down to start playing please message 4 hours before the game starts. Hello thank you for checking my profile. If your reading this you might be asking why this Dm and these games. I know how to enchant and kindle the imagination of players. Games are designed around the players' playing styles. During the first session, we will have a discussion as a group and determine what the expectations are for roleplay frequency, combat frequency, and play style, so by the 2nd session, everything will be tailored to the group's wants. I strive to ensure each player feels heard and has a genuine impact on the unfolding narrative. Whether you live for intense role-play, thrilling battles, or creative problem-solving, you’ll find a warm, open environment where you can shine. Code of conduct: 1. This is an all inclusive hobby, I have a Zero tolerance policy when it comes to racism, sexism or any prejudice of any kind. 2. Be on time for the game. If you can't, mention beforehand. 3. Communicate everything, including what's going on with your life (if it becomes relevant to the game). It will be kept between the player and GM. 4. If there are less than 3 players, know the session will be canceled. 5. Don't be a rules lawyer. 6. Please give notice if you want/need to leave the game. 7. Be nice, polite, and respectful. We are all here to play and have a good time.
