About the adventure

The Yawning Portal, an truly infamous tavern within the City of Splendors, Waterdeep. A place well known, though not for its ale nor food, not the endless flow of adventurers and mercs, and definitely not the 'hospitality' of the owner Durnan; no, the taverns fame is for one reason and one reason only, the Yawning Portal itself, a stone well that reaches deep down into the Undermountain, connecting to a vast dungeon that seems to call all sorts to risk wandering its depths.. The Portal is a place that any old fool can risk life and limb to gain some riches in the dark depths of the dungeon below, but its also a place where many gather to drink and talk, even find the odd bit of work now and than, be your desire to find work, to take a chance and risk it all for a chance at glory; or to simply find a place to drink some ale and spin a tale, the Yawning Portal welcomes all, even if its with a fist instead of open arms.. No better place in all of Waterdeep, now pull up a chair, sit back, and open you ears; I'm sure something here will catch your interest.. 🍻🗡️ Tales of the Yawning Portal: is an Anthology of Adventures, taking players, old and new, through many unique classic adventures, Starting with the Sunless Citadel, each adventure has a range of tones, some set as investigations, some with puzzle-solving, and even some that go from whimsy to striking horror; all sorts of creatures and treasure awaits to be found and claimed, are you up for the challenge? ▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄ This run of the game offers 18+ Content, potential romance, sensual themes; spicy RP with NPCs and other PCs should it be a group game. Boundaries and comfort levels will be discussed before the game begins or before a player joins, the boundaries of players and DM are held as top priority and can be reevaluate at a person discretion.

About me

After a decade as a player, I've decided to try my hand at the metaphorical wheel, to be a DM for both new and seasoned adventures, offering to help pilot the story of wandering adventurers in a PbP format; I tend to lean towards Roleplay heavy games, weaving together different official content and modules along with possible homebrew and your character’s backstory, I strive to run games that are character-first and allow your choices to impact the narrative. I welcome players, new to play-by-post, D&D, or both. I'm patient and enjoy teaching. My table is safe, inclusive and welcoming of LGBTQA, PoC, and neurodivergent players; let’s go on adventure.. I offer to run most modules, if you don't see it on my list, reach out and there's a good chance I do or will; and am happy to run or make the game for any potential player(s). I run group games (Max 4), solo games (1:1), and Duos (1:2), if you haven't been able to find the PbP you wish or are dying to play, don't hesitate to reach out. .. and yes, the option for Spicy/18+/romance themes is real and available.

Character creation

Creating your character

Character creation starts once you've chosen to join, you don't need any ideas or character before hand fully setup before hand, will go over the main bits and either craft your character or weave them into the story of the module with of course some fun twist and turns that will hopefully not just bring your character to life but allow for story-bits to be brought up or dealt with later on as we play. Starting level will be 1st or 3rd, unless we decide otherwise during on-boarding. Stats can be rolled in server or you can use point buy or the modified standard array: 17 16 15 13 11 9. We'll mainly be using Discord as this game is text base - Play-by-Post. Either D&D Beyond or Roll20 can be used character sheets or even just making a sheet on the server itself is fine, this is something we can go over; I do plan to use one site or the other for any combat but for the most part the game is Theater of the Mind. Finally will be using the 2024 ruleset with legacy materials allowed but the option to use solely 2014 rules is also there, another thing that will be discussed once you're in the game server. The main focus of the game is the story we create together, both with what's within the module and what we weave in; we will work together to tie your character's background into the world and story.

What to expect

Preparing for the session

To prepare, you simply need a Discord account and the desire to write up a fun story together. Having a Roll20 or D&D Beyond account would also be of use for any combat and tracking of sheets; but not mandatory. - Again will go over more in server.

What Fallen brings to the table

I provide a organized and safe Discord server where you can be yourself and be around others who simply are looking for the same thing. Will provide links to D&D Beyond/Roll20 campaigns where sheets can be made while sharing what content I can within those two sites. This, like all my games, is PbP (Play-by-post), I'm active throughout the week except on the Weekends where I take time for myself and recharge/plan. In regards to PbP, you can expect my time and patience along side my own creative spark when it comes to the Story and RP between us.

Homebrew rules

• Homebrew is very much an option for character creation. • Can cast more than one leveled spell a turn (Eg: Action: Guiding Blot - Bonus Action: Healing Word) • Drinking a potion is a Bonus Action

Safety

How Fallen creates a safe table

During on-boarding we’ll have an open discussion about boundaries, comfort levels, and use tools like Lines, Veils, and safe words to ensure everyone feels respected and empowered. The safety and comfort of all those involved is priority number 1.
