About the adventure
ARE YOU READY TO RIDE???!! Time to begin an epic crusade across the hellscape of Avernus! You and your crew have decided to take on one of the most dangerous of holy quests- to save as many lost souls as you can, and to slay the archdevil Zariel before she pulls more innocent cities into hell! Your god will reward you for demons slayed and souls saved, and you will begin to build a powerful fortress to protect the innocents stuck there with you and fight off demon hordes! This campaign features epic combats against the many warlords of Avernus, journeying to different parts of the hellscape to retrieve the lost shards of Zariel's sword, and being a beacon of goodness in a world of evil.

About me
Hello, I’m Dev! I’ve been a DM for seven years now, running both long term campaigns and one shots. I am very passionate about creating an immersive online experience, with great maps, music, and sound effects. I’ve been running online games for many years now, and feel very confident in my techniques and creating a fun and awesome game. I love running epic combats, high tier play, and role playing. Right now I am only running DnD 5e 2014 rules.

Creating your character
Character creation will be done before the game. If you can create your character sheet on roll20 that would be the best, but I also accept Dndbeyond sheets that can be linked to roll20.

What to expect
Preparing for the session
Players need a working mic and access to a computer. The game will be held over discord and roll20, so you will need an account on both. Players will need to make their character sheet ahead of time in roll20 or dndbeyond. If dndbeyond, they will need to have the chrome extension beyond20.
What Dev Alva brings to the table
If you play with me, you'll be playing with one of the most recommended dms on the site, as well as one of the most experienced dms for balancing high level play in 5e. I have level 16/20 oneshots I run regularly on SPG, as well as seven ongoing level 20 campaigns. Before I became an SPG dm, I was running level 11-20 adventures for years. I use unique monsters, strategies, and my vast experience to truly deliver an amazing game. If you love combat, this is the game for you! I work hard to provide an immersive online experience for my players. I use music and soundscapes to set the mood. I use imagery for theatre of the mind roleplay, and beautiful maps from various sources for combat and exploration. I am constantly improving my roll20 room with effects and visuals for you all to enjoy. I make sure to give everyone a chance for their character to shine, and play to their strengths and abilities. In my games you can expect challenging combat, great improvisation, and an immersive world to play in. I put player agency and involvement first, and I want to emphasize the fact that this game is a cooperative environment between myself and the players. I run my games RAW, or rules as written. If you have a rules question for me that I haven't come across before or forgotten about, I will pause the game momentarily to look it up and make sure everything is according to the spirit of the rules. I reference Sage Advice/Jeremy Crawford tweets, but have my own opinions as well (such as the interpretation of magic missile, shield master feat, and dispel magic).
Homebrew rules
I have one homebrew rule, and that is you can drink a potion as a bonus action.
