This is a one shot adventure to introduce new players to the wonderful world of DND! The setting will take place in the borderlands of Greyhawk, it's going to be very focused on helping new players get a handle on the mechanics and playing the game.

About me
Hi! My name is Reina(she/her), aka "The Rainbow Role" on social media! My primary experience with TTRPGs is with D&D. I got started young and rolled my first 2e AD&D character when I was eight and I have never stopped. I ran my first game when I was twelve and have been a "forever DM" ever since. Currently I primarily run and play 5e, both 2014 and 2024, but have experience 2e, 3.5e D&D, pathfinder, Carbon 2185 and non d20 systems as well, including Heavy Gear's silhouette system and Wold of Darkness. In the last ten years or so I've really made an effort to make my games more role-play heavy and less of a "table top war game with a role-play element." I love lore, both writing it and having my players give their characters lore. I can run a number of styles from light-hearted and goofy to gritty and dystopian, to grimdark. I'm also a huge proponent of safety devices and make sure I include them in any of my games. I'm also a digital artist, so I'm vehemently anti-GenAI, none of my games currently or ever will feature any generative AI assets or writing. That said I love getting to create character art for people and my profile picture is was created by me in Procreate based on a picture of myself.

What Reina brings to the table
With 30 years of experience playing the game I've taught many how to play and I'm always happy to bring more! In the game I utilize background music for ambiance, maps on roll20 and I attempt character voices when I can! I'm a huge proponent of collaborative story telling and I'm a super flexible gm when it comes to rolling with the decisions of the player characters!

How Reina creates a safe table
I send out a consent checklist once you've joined the discord server to be filled out so that I know what everyone is and isn't okay with including in the game. With this being a beginner game, the content isn't likely to be more than PG-13 in this game.
