About me
I've been playing various forms of role-playing games formally for more than 2 decades, including online, written, table top, and more, while informally, I've been playing and performing roles all my life. I love creating and sharing stories, all the more so when the players truly become part of the world by surprising me with their choices. Professionally, I have a background in history and am a recently-recovering educator, and I bring both to the gaming table by helping players learn the game and developing unique and non-standard worlds and stories while using a teach-as-we-go method for new players.

Creating your character
Players who book early will have a chance to explore character creation and discuss before we start. We will have a comprehensive Session 0 to fully create the characters and develop their early bonds to the story and to each other. We will be starting at level 1, utilizing the 5.5e Player's Handbook with the Heroes of Faerûn and elements of Eberron: Forge of the Artificer expansions as the only sources for character creation. No legacy, partner, 5.0e, or homebrew content will be available at character creation. In some instances, some of this content may become available as the story progresses. This is an episodic adventure, featuring scenes from and inspired by various Forgotten Realms modules. Players will have ample opportunity to explore different characters and playstyles throughout the adventure.
This is a new party and new adventure, so the choices are all yours. The game is designed as an episodic adventure of explorers, so the possibilities, from starting point to the factions you meet and the battlefields you visit, are endless!
What to expect
Preparing for the session
Players should join the Discord as soon as possible to ensure they are prepared to play. All communication and information about the game will be sent through Discord.
What Delphi brings to the table
I will bring everything else, including a great story and unique setting for our adventure! Be ready for a great time.
Homebrew rules
🍺 Crunchy Crits - Always get maximum base damage for a critical hit plus a single die roll (starts at level 3) 🍺 Agency while downed - If downed, players may crawl up to 5 feet (if not restrained), call out to allies, and roleplay 🍺 5/10 Diagonal Movement - The first diagonal move on a square grid is 5 feet, the second is 10 🍺 Dazed not Stunned - Instead of being stunned, which is never fun, a creature is now Dazed, which allows them to use 1 of a movement, action, or bonus action on their turn. Additionally, we may use custom mechanics for certain NPCs, monsters, and scenes.

How Delphi creates a safe table
This game features a grand tour of Faerûn while meeting local and regional legends. Players should expect themes of fantasy violence, horror, and societal difficulties in a pseudo-medieval setting. Players should expect a PG-13 to R level adventure, with a caution for live play. All players will additionally receive a lines and veils survey to ensure the game remains safe and fun for all.
