About the adventure
In this campaign you will... 🏹 Hunt Vampires 🔍 Uncover Necrotic Lore ⚔️ Battle Vampire Lords 💀 Stop the Rise of a Darkened Age If you enjoy shows like Castlevainia mixed with the vampirism within Curse of Strahd this is the campaign for you! Vampiric activity has increased in the city of Bladesgate. There are rumors that the Thorne Coven is seeking ways to survive the day; even at great risk and cost to themselves. Any hunter worth their salt knows this is a common vampiric dream; the question becomes why now? What has changed to make this coven believe it is possible to make the common vampire a daywalker? Rumors have flooded the city, but no single theory has been confirmed. Some say the vampires have discovered a way to modify themselves. Others argue a blessing by some profane god has enabled them. Still other theorize that this is simply a random mutation for the next generation of vampires. Whatever the case, the Thorne Coven must be stopped. Hunters, other covens, and holy men all move to intervene before these vampires can rise in power. Join your fellow vampire hunters in the search for the source of this potential change that could allow vampires to rule the land. I DM games using the FoundryVTT software that helps me run faster combats and more jam-packed sessions. My aim is to minimize the parts of the game that are tedious and maximize the epic moments you want with your characters. This game will be roleplay heavy, and the combats and events that occur will be heavily influenced by that roleplay. This is a homebrew, custom campaign that will never be run again.

About me
I started as a Dungeon Master online at the beginning of 2020. I know my tools inside and out, and I know how to create a tabletop experience online because it is the medium I started in. I take advantage of the technology whenever I can to enhance everyone's experience by automating the tedious parts of the game so more focus can be put on aspects of the game you love. I use a combination of D&D Beyond, FoundryVTT and Discord to run my games. I am looking forward to meeting you! Please message me if you have any questions!

Creating your character
Characters will be made with D&D Beyond during the session zero. Stats will be generated through a modified rolling system. There may be racial limitations and certain backstory expectations depending on the class/race you choose. You are free to not use D&D Beyond; just please let me know before hand. Alternatively, I can also provide a pregenerated character to you.
Bronze Orc Hunter Ranger/Champion Fighter Half-Elf Fiend Warlock/Swashbuckler Rogue Tiefling Echo Knight Fighter/Assassin Rogue Vampire Blood Mage
What to expect
Preparing for the session
You will at least need a mic, Discord account, a stable internet connection, and a D&D Beyond account (if you want easy access to my content library on the platform). Everything else can be taken care of by me. Reading over the rules and becoming more familiar with D&D is also always useful. I'll also go over FoundryVTT with you.
What Justin brings to the table
I provide the majority of official books on D&D Beyond via content sharing, and I also have a community of people who are currently on my games on Discord. I also utilize FoundryVTT for battlemaps and world maps. I am bringing years of D&D experience online, and I am looking forward to starting a new campaign with you.
Homebrew rules
You may choose your spellcasting ability score (wisdom, intelligence, or charisma) independently of your class. Examples of this include an intelligence based warlock or a wisdom based paladin. When taking levels in a class you may choose to take a subclass feature from any subclass of that class of equal or lower level to that subclass feature. In some instances this may not work, like an Assassin taking the Soul Blades feature from a Soulknife due to the Assassin’s lack of psi dice.
