About me
The creative writer in me thrives off of this. I found a love for dungeons and dragons and really couldn't turn away from it since 5th edition. Whether it is creating new characters for games I hope to play in the future, new or interesting combinations, world building or finding that perfect song to represent the emotional moment in a player's story, I love it all. My dog spike is not so thrilled with dungeons and dragons but feeds off my excitement towards the stories we all create together! My schedule is flexible so if there are days and times that work better for you please don't hesitate to ask! Talk dnd with me! I would love to hear your creative combinations, roleplaying, and backstories! If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to shoot me a message!

Creating your character
Once we have enough players we will plan on having a session 0 to go over character creation and party composition together. If you would like to create anything before the session 0 plan on creating characters using 2024 rules and starting at level 1.
What to expect
Preparing for the session
Players should have a discord account and working speakers/ microphone. Create an account on dndbeyond and install the extension above vtt for character creation and maps.
What Travis brings to the table
I will be providing the source books needed. I own most of the content on dndbeyond and can share this with all players within the campaign so no purchases necessary on dndbeyond. I will do various character voices and accents. However, being able to hold certain voices and accents may be questionable. They are always done with enthusiasm. There will be background music and sounds through gameplay. Rules will be followed and enforced unless the pace of gameplay is unaffected. Rule of cool is still a thing as well.
