✨Fate of Faerûn: The Distant Storm✨

Creating your character

🪧 Character Creation Character creation will happen before the first session, during a Session 0 where we’ll discuss concepts and finalize details. You can choose to point buy or roll for stats (4d6 drop the lowest), and we’ll decide together which method works best. Characters will begin at Level 1. We’ll use 2024 core rulebooks like (Player’s Handbook, Dungeon Master’s Guide, Monster Manual, and etc.) for official content. During Session 0, we’ll build your character’s backstory and motivations to ensure they fit into the campaign.

Preparing for the session

What You Need to Do Before Session 1 To prepare for the game, please complete the following steps: ✅ 1. Create Required Accounts Discord: We’ll use Discord for voice chat during sessions. Please make sure you have an account and the app installed (desktop or mobile). Roll20: You’ll need a free account at Roll20.net to join the game and access your character sheet. 🎙️ 2. Audio Quality A good-quality microphone is required. A headset is strongly recommended to reduce background noise and echo. 🧾 3. Join the Game Links Once you join the adventure, you’ll receive: A Discord server invite (for voice chat and session updates) A Roll20 game link (to access the virtual tabletop and your character sheet) 💬 Questions or New to D&D? No worries at all! Message me anytime. I’ll help you get fully set up and feeling confident before we begin.

What Parshi brings to the table

Player-driven story. Your backstories matter. I weave your goals, flaws, and relationships directly into the central mystery of the campaign. Choices have consequences, and the world will respond. Cinematic atmosphere. I use ambient music and mood-setting descriptions. I lean into tone, whether that’s eerie ruins or tense negotiations. Tactical, meaningful combat. Expect smart enemies, dynamic terrain, and cinematic effects. Rules with flexibility. I run a fair, consistent table, but I embrace the Rule of Cool when it elevates the moment. Collaboration first. Clear communication, player agency, and a table where everyone contributes to the story.

Homebrew rules

⚙️ House Rule: Stay in Character I do have a few house rules, but the most important one is simple: once the game begins, please try to keep interactions in character. This helps maintain immersion and makes the story more engaging for everyone at the table. For rules questions or necessary out-of-character comments, we can handle them briefly in the moment or save longer discussions for breaks. The goal isn’t to restrict conversation, but to keep the flow of the story intact. Don’t worry, this is a light guideline, not a strict rule. Think of it as a way to help the game feel natural, immersive, and alive.

How Parshi creates a safe table

🤝 Safety, Respect & Fun This is a community where everyone should feel safe, respected, and welcome. During sessions, Be kind, have fun, and roll with it. We’ll discuss lines, veils, and boundaries in Session 0 to avoid sensitive topics, and the X-card system is always available if you need to pause or adjust a scene. I’ll also check in regularly to make sure everyone feels comfortable.
