About the adventure

You wake up on the floor of Graycliffs, Impiltur’s bleak little island prison where “serious offenders” and “mild inconveniences to the magistrates” are treated with equal enthusiasm. You’ve been magically restrained, stripped of your gear, and accused of crimes so wildly embellished that even the guards couldn’t keep a straight face while hauling you in. Tonight, the prison is shaking under a rising storm, the warden is conspicuously missing, and something is chanting beneath Cellblock C. Your restraints are flickering, the guards are panicking, and the whole place feels like it's one bad decision away from collapsing into the Sea of Fallen Stars. If you’re in the mood for a jailbreak fueled by dark humor, questionable ethics, and the opportunity to commit several actual crimes on your way out, Escape From Cellblock C is ready for you. Sign up, wake up in prison, and see how fast you can make the situation worse.

About me

As an organized and detail-oriented Game Master, I bring rich plot lines and immersive story elements to every campaign. I specialize in weaving player backstories seamlessly into the narrative to create cohesive, unforgettable adventures. With experience spanning decades—from my start with the Red Box Dungeons & Dragons to my deep love for 3.5 edition—I’ve honed my skills and storytelling craft over time. After returning to 5E four years ago, I’ve been hosting weekly online games that keep players engaged and coming back for more. Currently, I run campaigns using the 2024 Dungeons & Dragons rules on the Shard Tabletop Virtual Tabletop (VTT) platform. Let’s roll the dice and make stories come alive!

Creating your character

Players will be creating a Level 5 character on Shard Tabletop VTT after rolling stats on my Campaign Discord. Most of the books and updated material are available there for use.

What to expect

Preparing for the session

Stats will be rolled on my Campaign Discord, and the link to the one shot on Shard Tabletop VTT, which is browser based and only requires a free account to use as a player, will be provided there as well.

What DocApocalypse brings to the table

I have full color maps and custom playlists for the game as well as 40+ sets of dice and token borders for players to use. We will be playing RaW for the most part, with plenty of opportunities for Rule of Cool moments.

Drinking or administering a potion is a Bonus Action, we will be using Inspirations, Heroic Inspirations and Luck points during the game.
