About the adventure
Dark rumors coil through the kingdom like smoke. Plots of treachery, whispers of rebellion, and shadows that reach alarmingly close to the throne. To stand between the crown and the blade, the realm calls upon you. In this campaign, your duty is simple in name but perilous in practice: protect the royal heir at all costs… even when the threats come from unexpected directions. The kingdom’s survival depends on you. Guard the royal, save the realm… 👑 Create Your Royal: Your royal is fully customizable, crafted to match the tone, style, and drama you crave. Noble and innocent? Sharp-tongued and rebellious? Secretly magical or secretly cursed? Train them to fight alongside you, support you with magic, or keep them protected. Who they are is 100% up to you. ⚔️ Choose Your Adventure: Guard your royal as you travel across the land, fighting ancient foes and fulfilling ancient prophecies. Or, help them claim the throne while navigating a web of political intrigue. Or, abscond with them to have merry adventures. The type of adventure and the setting of the world is entirely built to help you play the story you want. ❤️‍🔥 Explore Your Feelings: Your relationship to the royal can be however you want it to be. A simple responsibility, a dear friend, an unlikely alliance. Or, it could be something... more. Have as much or as little romance/spicy content as you want. A Solo Play-by-Post game is a 1-on-1 storytelling experience between you and me, the GM, played entirely through written posts. That's the beauty of solo play. You set your own pace, responding when it's convenient for you. What to expect: - Deep roleplay and immersive writing, with a story that puts your character's choices, goals, and growth in the spotlight - At least one post per day, with potentially more depending on availability - Art and visual aids to enhance your adventure

About me
As what I'm sure is quite the familiar story by now, I first starting playing D&D5e during the Covid-19 pandemic. At first, it was something that a few of my friends and I did to stay connected and pass the time, but it soon blossomed into a full-grown passion for me. Not long after that game ended, I found StartPlaying, and found an easy way to find games to play in and people to play with. Having played as a player for most of my time, I want to grow as a DM, so hopefully I can help other people looking to play find their outlet.

Creating your character
We will use D&D Beyond to create the character sheet. We will be using the 2024 rules update, and all official 1st-party classes, backgrounds, and species are allowed. Any 3rd-party/homebrew material is subject to approval We will start at Level 1, and you can use your preferred method for determining your stats (Standard Array / Point-Buy / Roll 3 sets of 4d6 dropping the lowest for each stat) We can build your character during Session 0, or you can create one beforehand. It's up to you!
What to expect
Preparing for the session
You will need a Discord and D&D Beyond account
What Evan brings to the table
I will provide access to all 1st-party content on D&D Beyond to help build your character. Upon joining the campaign, I will provide dedicated Discord server where the game will take place. There will be sections for the game, for out-of-character chat, for maps/art, and battle maps to better visualize combat I will run the game Rules as Written, but there is always room for Rule of Cool if it makes sense and can be justified.
Homebrew rules
- Healing Potions: Bonus Action = Rolled HP / Action = Full Amount - Critical Success and Failure: Rolling a Nat 20 or Nat 1 on Skill checks will result in either an utter success, or a complete failure

How Evan creates a safe table
At our Session 0, we will go over character creation and backstory, a brief explanation of this module, house rules for game, safety tools and their use, and anything else that may come up as we get the game ready. My number one priority is that you have a fun time playing and are comfortable
