About the adventure
(ATTENTION. Every Masquerade comes with its special theme. Please look at the party notes to view this week's theme.) Welcome to Azzagrat After Dark—the most exclusive party in the Lower Planes. The Demon Lord Graz’zt is throwing a lavish celebration for one of his infernal VIPs, and you? You’ve been “hired” to provide the entertainment. Not as bards or dancers, oh no—you’ll be battling monstrous horrors in front of a demonic audience with a taste for blood and flair. This is no ordinary arena. If your performance doesn’t sparkle, you might lose more than hit points. The crowd demands spectacle. Graz’zt demands style. Kill with panache, perform with pizzazz, and maybe—just maybe—you’ll survive the night with your soul intact. A Level 20 one-shot of glorious combat, dramatic flourishes, and devilishly fun mechanics. The stage is set. The crowd is hungry. Don’t bore the demon.

About me
Hello everyone! My name is Robin, I have been a Dungeon Master for over 10 years. In this time I have ran a wide array of games: from one shots to long campaigns, from lighthearted quests to grimdark intrigue, from whimsy and fantastical to down to earth and realistic. No matter the setting or kind of game, my number one priority is making sure that everyone is having fun, enjoying themselves, and getting a fun break from day-to-day life. I'm currently GMing in Pathfinder 2e and DND 5e, and whether you're a veteran player or a complete newbie, I hope to get to roll some dice with you! All my games are LGBT+ friendly.

Creating your character
Players will be expected to make a level 20 character. Any race/class combo is allowed, and you can roll 4d6 (drop the powest) for stats. You can have any combination of magic items, so long as they add up to 10 points: uncommon items are 1 point, rare is 2 points, very rare are 3 points, and legendary are 4 points. You can have any combination of magic items you want, any feats and multiclasses you want, anything that sounds fun to you! Both 2024 and 2014 rules are allowed for character creation. Play what sounds fun to you. In the fight itself, precedence is given to '24 rules. I'm using Roll20 as a VTT, you can either make a sheet in there, export one from your vault, or connect to DnDBeyond.
This week's theme: Jurassic Mayhem!

How Robin creates a safe table
There will be X N O cards in the VTT, which you will be able to drag on the map if the need will arise. If you'll need to step away for any reason during the session you are always obviously welcome to do so, no questions asked. If there's a particular trigger or issue you're worried about and want to let me know ahead of time, please message me either here on SPG or on Discord (you will be able to find me there after signing up!)
