About the adventure
At the edges of reality, where the light of creation gives way to howling void, sits a city of broken mirrors and shattered minds. The City of Mirrors is the domain of the King in Yellow, an eldritch entity older than the gods themselves, and he has been watching you for a very long time. This is a high-level Lovecraftian horror campaign running from 10th to 20th level.

About me
Hi there, my name is David, and I wear many hats: nerd, nurse, father and more, but on this website the crown I wear is that of a Dungeon Master! I specialize in running 1:1 duets play-by-post games, as well as high level tier 3-4+ play. I’m based in the UK and am broadly available to talk 8 pm- 12 pm UK time, which is 3 pm - 7pm EST. This is the time window that I write most my daily posts. My pricing varies by the amount of skill and time that go into a game, where simpler games such as starter adventures cost $40 a week, and more complex games like my level 20+ games cost $60 a week.

Creating your character
Characters should be created on dnd beyond and imported into foundry. Starting Level 10, with one chance to roll for stats, falling back on point buy if you do not go with your rolls. All official content is permitted. I would rather avoid 3rd party content, but am willing to discuss content from reputable sources.
