About the adventure
I am creating this offering as many have reached out to ask for help and time setting up their servers. As an IT professional with 20 years of expeirence, setting up servers, and changes is something I am very familiar with. In responce to this i decided to create a 1 shot offering to help other GMs who are less technical get setup and running games. The idea is to setup a list of objectives you would like to get setup and help teach you how to do them for your own game. This can be creating a self hosted server, working with forge or free hosting on oracle. It can include getting addons setup and configured, importing content from DnD beyond, setting up monster stat blocks or showing you how to crate animated maps with triggers, teleporters traps and events. Ideally we would setup a chat to define what you want to cover and book in a 2-3 hour session to build and configure what you need.

About me
Hey there! I'm Michel Mayhew—a lifelong gamer, world-builder, and dice-slinger with nearly 30 years of tabletop experience under my belt. My journey began back in the days of D&D 2.5 Edition, and it's been a wild ride through dungeons, starships, and haunted cities ever since. I started playing Dungeons & Dragons back in the early 90s and have played a bunch of different games and systems since. I tend to always be the GM at least in more recent times and I do enjoy it quite a bit. I've played other games like the classic white wolf games (vampire, etc) as well as many different smaller games like Slay industries and Deadlands. Most recently I've been GMing a mix of Pathfinder / Starfinder 2e games as well as DnD 5e and most recently Daggerfall. These systems are great, easy to use and allow a wonderful framework for telling stories.

What to expect
Preparing for the session
Please bring a list of objectives you would like to accomplish. Here is an exmaple: Would like to run it on forge, for easy online access • Would like Daggerheart ruleset fully integrated in terms of rolls, abilities, etc. Or as close as the good, pre-existing modules allow for this. • Similarly, would like the ability to either port in character sheets or create them cleanly and easily within the game. • Tracking stats, etc all in game, rolls in game, etc. • Initiative/turn timer not really necessary for Daggerheart, but a way to stop players moving during combat when not their spotlight? • Tile triggers for the movement, vision, etc to keep them pausing, some template examples.
What Michel brings to the table
1- prescreening call to review objectives of the main 1 shot. 1- 2-3 hour session to enable and teach the above agreed stuff. 1- post call support for basic questions for a few weeks after the setup.
