About the adventure
You and your companions have ventured to the famed Candlekeep, the great bastion of knowledge and enlightenment not too far from Baldur's Gate. Your village has been beset by a terrible, localized plague, and your elders believe that only the vast collection of tomes at the great library will lead to a way to saving your home. Candlekeep holds many secrets, and as you begin to explore its hallowed halls you find more answers than questions, uncovering a great chain of events that threatens not only your home, but all of Faerun. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ This is a modified Candlekeep Mysteries campaign - we'll be running from levels 1-16 and will take a lot of time to explore the titular library, as well as many other locations along the Sword Coast (and beyond!). No experience required for this campaign - just a willingness to contribute to the story and an enthusiasm for the excitement of collaborative story-telling :)

About me
Hi there! I'm Buppy. Welcome to the Pack! Games with me are a mix of serious, deep character-building moments and goofy comedy. I like to offer a mix of shorter and longer sessions so players can try new builds or characters while also enjoying their long-time favorites. I also love to help people learn the ropes, and as someone with years of teaching experience I'm a great asset to new players entering their TTRPG experience for the first time. Before finding my way into DnD fully, I was a huge nerd for fantasy stories and was constantly reading. When I was little I even got pulled out of a soccer game for bringing a book onto the field and reading during the game! (it fit in my pocket) My education is in music, and I think that running modules is and familiar settings scratches a similar itch to performing music - it's the same framework each time, but every play through is so very different! If you join up with one of my tables, be ready for a personalized approach to your character with as much attention and care as it takes to bring our story together. See you at the table!

Creating your character
We will be building characters using Foundry, a Virtual TableTop which you can access on your browser! I'll walk you through everything during Session 0. You are welcome to also build your character another way (DnD Beyond, Dice Cloud, etc) as long as you share that sheet with me for reference. Every player will have one-on-one time before the session starts to talk over backstory/character ideas. All official sourcebooks are fair game, and if you'd like to bring something that is outside of that (3rd party/homebrew), I'm open to it! But please run it by me first so I can make sure it fits at the table.
What to expect
Preparing for the session
You will need a mic and a relatively quiet place to play from. Webcams are optional, but mine will be on so you are welcome to join! You shouldn't need an account for Foundry (I'll help you get set up there), but you will need one for Discord - you can do that here: https://discord.com/ You don't need to be a rules expert by any means - we will work through things together as we get started! I just ask that you come ready to play and have fun!!
What Buppy brings to the table
I'm excited for you to join my table! As a player, here is what you can expect from me as your DM: - Learning opportunities! I really enjoy teaching the game to others, so throughout this campaign you will learn the basics of combat, roleplaying, and exploration - the three pillars of D&D! - A great focus on character backstory! I want your characters (and you as the players) to be truly invested in the happenings on the Sword Coast. - Engaging and memorable NPCs, both as allies and enemies! - While the rules are in place for a reason, sometimes you want to do something that doesn't quite fit a specific rule. That's ok! I use what is called the Rule of Cool - in essence, we will find a way to make it work if it's at all possible!

Safety
How Buppy creates a safe table
Before we begin, we will take some time to discuss our Lines and Veils, which will also be covered in a shared document for all players. I want to make sure all players feel safe and welcome during play - it's ok for characters to feel scared or stressed, but the players should be having fun! At any point, players can message me to let me know if something is making them uncomfortable. I am not against stopping a game to make sure everyone is feeling ok before moving forward, and we can always retcon/skip forward/etc if needed. Finally, my messages are always open! Feel free to message me anytime to let me know if something didn't work for you during the game, and we can find a way to make sure those things don't happen in the future.
