About the adventure
New to D&D? Or tired of the usual modules? Sow your oats with us, based on "Eberron: Rising from the Last War" the official campaign setting. Long ago, dragons saved the world of Eberron. But now they’re… “between eras.” The Last War that ravaged Khorvaire just ended. The dragon-marked houses are rebuilding and politicking. Magic trains are running again. Gnomes are unionizing. But somewhere in all this… a clutch of young dragons has been told: “Go find your long-lost ancestor, the Coatl, or be shunned from Argonnessen forever.” That’s you! Shedding your true forms to blend in as perfectly normal, absolutely-not-scaly humanoids; you and your clutch-mates are bound to the fate of Eberron more deeply than you know. * Will you reclaim your heroic heritage? Hopefully. * Outmaneuver the noble houses? Notoriously. * Catch your enemies and friends on fire. Flammably. * Get distracted by side quests for one ring? – Filthy Hobbitses. This ain’t your Amish neighbor’s D&D game! This is your Dragunschpringa — a weekly D&D 5e campaign where: • Ridiculous creativity beats “rules as written.” • Impassioned speeches and Property damage are equally valid solutions. • Monstrosities, Magical Inventions, and Political Nonsense go hand-in-claw. Think: * Muppets mayhem. * Game of Thrones consequences. * New-found family with breathe-weapons. Eberron lives in the vast gray between good and evil. So leave your prejudices at the door—even if the NPCs don’t. Goblins have grannies. Necromancers have hobbies. Villains even have proper paperwork. Your ancestors once drove demons back into the frozen wintry wastes. So sharpen your claws. Adjust your disguise. It’s time for your own Dragunschpringa! If you have any questions, feel free to message me. We’ll use the following for this D&D 5e 2024 game and slowly add in a few Homebrew rules to keep gameplay fun for all levels. Applications Used • Live Online Play. East Coast Time. • A mixture of Theater-of-the-Mind and Maps. • D&D Beyond (I’ll share content and character creation tools) • Roll20 for gameplay visuals, maps, and soundtrack • Discord for communications, extra info, and interactions between games or downtime activities. General Expectations • This is intended to be a collaborative, creative Game for everyone to enjoy. • Mutual Respect for others and their own choices is paramount. • The “Rule of Cool” beats “Rules as Written” at the DM’s discretion. • This game setting sometimes contains adult topics such as violence, gore, murder, death, substance abuse, prejudice, greed, etc. (but of course in the funnest ways possible- HA!) • If certain topics are a concern for you, please communicate with me so we can make adjustments that are best for all payers. I’m excited for another great adventure with fantastical folks like you!

About me
Hello adventurers! Do you want to learn D&D 5e while enjoying story-time for big kids along with collective hallucinations and epic battles, all while using weird accents or bad puns? If you answered YES, then we're practically family already! I'm your Cuzin Merv, an experienced GM, storyteller, writer, maker, teacher, and father. Let's explore the depths and uncover the intrigue of Eberron. I enjoy an atmosphere as relaxed as the "Legends of Avantris" mixed with the chaos of "Muppet Treasure Island" but in a world as dangerous as "Arcane" (on Netflix). Join me if you want to make friends, love fantasy, and find breaking the rules fascinating. (*No puppets were harmed in the making of this advert.)

What Cuzin Merv (Brad) brings to the table
Hello There! If you're looking for a D&D group that balances varied combat with wacky roleplay, magical tinkering with sketchy necromancy, high fantasy with creative collaboration, and a great group of friendly folks who enjoy bad accents or "dad" joke... so am I! I use the following for all of my D&D 5e 2024 games. Depending on players' experiences, I may slowly add a few extra homebrew rules over the course of gameplay. I.E. - Harvesting and Crafting, Airship Combat, Planar Travel, etc. Applications Used • Live Online Play. East Coast Time. • A mixture of Theater-of-the-Mind and Maps. • D&D Beyond (I’ll share content and character creation tools) • Roll20 for gameplay visuals, maps, and soundtrack. • Discord for communications, extra info, and interactions between games or downtime activities. General Expectations • This is intended to be a collaborative, creative game for everyone to enjoy. • Mutual Respect for others and their own choices is paramount. • The “Rule of Cool” often beats “Rules as Written” at the GM’s discretion. • This game setting sometimes contains adult topics such as violence, gore, murder, death, religion, substance abuse, prejudice, greed, etc. (but of course in the funnest ways possible- HA!) • If certain topics are a concern for you, please communicate with me so we can make adjustments that are best for all players. *As a person of faith, I personally tend to steer away from a lot of expletives, sexually explicit language or scenes. **My games are open and welcoming to all with respect and room for others' beliefs. If you have any questions, feel free to message me. I’m excited for another great adventure with fantastical folks like you!
