About me
I'm a DM with nearly 30 years of experience and have been a Professional running multiple sessions weekly since 2021. I've been playing since 2nd Edition and I strongly believe that the player's write the story with their choices and decisions, I'm just the editor that makes sure every player is getting the role they want in the story. While I sometimes may be using published materials, I'll often tailor the module to the players. This means that your choices in character creation will help shape the story, and veterans who may have played the adventure before might get a surprise or two! I believe in RAW and RAI, meaning your spells and abilities will do what they say they do, but I also support and encourage creative applications as well. I won't punish you for your build or your creativity, instead I'll find ways to make you feel challenged and awesome! I'm a fan of rich, fulfilling narratives, memorable characters with unique personalities and stories that will change based on your decisions, but I'm also a seasoned vet who's fought a battle or two and loves dynamic tactical combat. Depending on who is in the group and what your preference is, we can focus on either (or both!). We can play a session without a single roll of a die, or we can wage glorious battle through a gauntlet of cunning foes. The game you want is the game I'll bring to you!

Creating your character
There will be pregen characters available, otherwise we will build characters in Session 0! All Published Content on D&D Beyond is permitted, other 3rd party is subject to approval. Stats will be Point Buy, unless the party votes otherwise.
What to expect
Preparing for the session
Have a discord account, a webbrowser, a D&D beyond account, a Forge Account, the Beyond 20 Browser App, a character concept (I can help!) and a friendly attitude! I will offer access to the full D&D Beyond catalogue, as well as access to a Discord Server.
What Northern Dungeons brings to the table
Vibrant Setting images, Handouts and NPC Portraits! A rich cast of NPCs and opportunities to develop relationships that are full and rewarding! Dynamic and Challenging Combat that can surprise the Meta and presents stakes! Narratives tailored to the Player Characters, making the stories personal and meaningful!
Homebrew rules
I defer to ability checks over Item HP, favouring Strength for breaking, jumping and swimming, I encourage using the 2014 combat option rules in the DMG, with some space utilizing the 2024 Unarmed Strike Rules and thew saving throw mechanics. I utilize Exhaustion, and add it to the statuses Lesser Restoration can heal, and allow Second Wind, Rage, Wholeness of Body and other Physical Based abilities as a means of overcoming it. I use the Free Press mental health conditions as well, along with 2014 madness rules (sometimes with durations homebrewed) I like to use Popcorn initiative for exploration and skill challenges when there is an urgency or danger that opens up space for cinematic descriptions and allows equal opportunities for the spotlight.
