About the adventure
The trade route between the coastal cities of Neverwinter and Luskan has become a graveyard of looted caravans and the notorious outlaw responsible for it has finally pushed his luck too far. Your party has been hired to track this fugitive and secure the bounty before he harms more innocents. Be prepared to face dangerous outlaws and deadly local wildlife, explore the wilderness and make tough moral choices. This is an action-oriented one-shot where your wits and skills are the only things standing between a massive payday and a cold trail. Whether you are a seasoned veteran or a brand-new player eager to learn how to play D&D, there is a seat for you. I prioritize clarity and a "learn-by-doing" approach, ensuring the mechanics are accessible for everyone without sacrificing the depth that experienced players crave. The hunt is on!

About me
Hello there! I’m a Game Master who loves epic stories and tactical gameplay. I’ve been passionate about TTRPGs since my childhood and have been running games since 2017. I have experience with systems like D&D 5e, Pathfinder 2e, and Lancer and I am proud of being able to say that I managed to successfully run a whole campaign from level 1 to 20.

Creating your character
The game will be played at level 3 in Foundry VTT. You can pick from one of the pregenerated character sheets or make your own. If you decided on the latter, please check the link in the "Homebrew rules" section to see all specific guidelines. I will also be available before the session start to assist with anything related to character creation.
What to expect
Preparing for the session
You need to have a free Discord account to join my server which will handle the voice chat. The game is played in Foundry VTT, which runs directly in your web browser with no account or download required.
What Axe brings to the table
I provide a premium Foundry VTT experience featuring handmade maps, dynamic lighting, ambient music, and partial rolling automation to keep the game moving smoothly. I will also teach you how to use Foundry VTT if it's your first time with it.
Homebrew rules
Here is a link to a short PDF containing all my house rules: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1juTDejPEKbTu2oYEnGH8hP044z4HpP6r/view?usp=sharing The vast majority of these changes are agreed-upon staples within the D&D 5.5 community aiming on making the game more fun for everyone involved.

How Axe creates a safe table
We will start the game with a brief Session 0.5 to talk about our Lines and Veils to ensure our humor stays fun for everyone. During play we will use the X card system via Discord for real-time signaling. My DMs are always open for private aftercare or feedback - I take table safety as seriously as the rules.
