About the adventure
๐ชHook ๐ช You awake in a strange land full of mist and fog and find your way to a stone door. Once opened, you find yourself in the ancient and mythical lands of Astoyea. When you rest, you see the mists in your dreams; it seems to guide you to some kind of fate unknown, and it grants you power. Are you from Astoyea or another land, another world, or maybe even another time? Will following the mist lead you home or to your destiny? ๐ Story ๐ Fate itself shall pull the players from the mists into a quest that shall take them to many lands, ruins, and wonders. To face dragons, demons, and monsters. They aim to acquire gold, artifacts, and knowledge, enabling them to either confront their destiny or resist it. The story shared here is vague on purpose because I plan to weave the ideas and wants of the players into the tapestry of the story and its setting. ๐ Setting ๐ This game takes place in a fantasy setting of my own making called Astoryea. That takes a lot of inspiration from Tolkien, Zelda, and Elden Ring. In many ways, it will be like many classic D&D settings, such as the Forgotten Realms. This way, you can create character ideas without reading their history. I've left many blank spaces in this setting so that I can easily reshape it to suit the needs of the players. This land has its own history and story, despite its vague and flexible nature. โ ๏ธ Warning! โ ๏ธ This game will not allow players who are anti-LGBTQ+ rights, sexist, racist, ableist, or just mean.

About me
I have been GMing for over 15 years, sometimes with custom-made names, often with one of the game systems listed on my profile. I love a game where the natural consequences of a player's actions bounce off the natural actions and reactions of the NPCs and mix with some random chance of the dice to twist and turn the story in ways neither the players nor the GM could have seen coming! I love creating worlds for the players that feel living and changing, that have NPCs that act realistically and with agency so it never feels like the player is in a cardboard castle talking to King Quest Giver I love having and trusting a caring gaming group that have respect for each other's needs and boundaries. I will not tolerate intolerance of any race, creed, gender, sexuality, disability, faith (or lack thereof), nationality, or anything else like that!

Creating your character
We will get into a Discord call, and I will give you a Roll20 sheet, and I will guide you through each step of character creation. I can be as hands-on or as hands-off as you want me to be.
What to expect
Preparing for the session
Players will need a working mic, Discord, and Roll20. And honestly, that is all you will need. It will make things easier if you have also taken the Roll20 tutorial, but such training is not required.
What DireDM brings to the table
15+ years of GMing Know how Voice Acting Lovely battle Maps A lovely Soundtrack Shared access to a large number of D&D books I have on Roll20. And a power and willingness to mod or alter the game to make sure that all the players are joyful.
Homebrew rules
I have a handful of basic home rules, and I'm open to adding more depending on what the players need/want.

How DireDM creates a safe table
The player may choose to either PM me in Discord or talk to me out loud if and whenever they have an issue in the game, and they are also free to leave the Discord call at any moment if they need to, and then we can talk about why later.
