About the adventure
The world of Allarea stands on the edge of change. Ancient kingdoms still bear the scars of the Dragon Wars and the collapse of the great Mage Empires. Across the seas lie shattered coastlines, cursed ruins, forgotten islands, and regions left unexplored for centuries. Trade fleets vanish beyond black horizons. Strange species emerge from hidden continents. Lost magic resurfaces beneath ruined cities swallowed by jungle, ash, and storm. Ancient powers stir beyond the known world. The great factions of Allarea struggle for power: ⚔️ fractured kingdoms ⚔️ ambitious trading companies ⚔️ pirate coalitions ⚔️ ancient bloodlines ⚔️ secretive arcane orders In Sea of Crowns, you are not tied to a predetermined story. You decide where to go, who to trust, what to discover, and what kind of legend your character becomes. ##About Your GM Run by a professional GM with 25+ five-star reviews and extensive experience running immersive long-term campaigns in rich homebrew settings.

About me
I write D&D modules, I run games, I write code and, most importantly, I love D&D. Actually most TTRPG, RPG and board games to be honest. I am a player, a GM, and a moderator on multiple discord servers, primarily I offer text based D&D 5e games, though I have online voice and video games too. Check it out… Are you seeking a 5E game to develop your character, to be a hero, without the challenges of scheduling? A play by post that won't fade away and WILL allow you to reach your characters full potential? I facilitate play by post campaigns, catering to one to six players. I will completely customise the game to suit you and your characters, using either homebrew or published materials, depending on your preference, and at any desired levels. We will discuss the essence of D&D adventures with you, and I will craft a world tailored to your specifications. Do you enjoy immersive role-playing? We will engage in scenarios that will delve into your characters life through role-playing. Prefer engaging in combat where you can wield your preferred weapon with fervour or drop Fireballs at every opportunity? Then get your long rest in and brace your selves for some brutality. Or perhaps strike a balance between role-playing and combat, all is possible. I organise play by post games using Discord and Avrae for combat. I consistently respond to posts within 24 hours, making at least 1 major daily contributions and 1-2 smaller interactions, and I expect a good level of commitment from players. Sundays are slow, or no, contribution days. Any deviations from this schedule will be communicated in advance, and these expectations can be adjusted based on customer preferences

Creating your character
Characters will be discussed during the "Session 0", which is essentially the time before we get started. They will start at level 3, to allow subclass and multiclass, if required. I have a modified dice roll system that allows for a better spread of stats. We can create them together or all be yourself, and backstory detail is up to the player.
The Party is yourself only and any NPC or Sidekicks you wish to acquire along the way.
What to expect
Preparing for the session
The only preparation required will be to join the discord server and get to know each other a bit, create characters on DnD Beyond and link them into the server. There is no requirement for any particular device as Beyond is on a browser and Discord is an application, so just an internet enabled device will suffice.
What Garry brings to the table
I am an excitable GM and ready to create a story and lead the adventure where you want to go. I will provide the hosted server access and link to resources on DnD Beyond, allowing access to most content. I maintain the bots, code and all the requirements to make the server function well and support the gameplay. Maps, characters, story, world, npc and even some monsters are made by myself, utilising map tools, AI Art (sorry artists) and my own creativity. You, the player, please bring your creativity, RP skills, willingness to use discord/avrae and, above all, patience and commitment to playing in the PBP style.
Homebrew rules
Heroes have additional feat, magic item and high, server specific stat spread. Flanking rules. Potions are bonus to self.

Safety
How Garry creates a safe table
To ensure the safety and comfort of all players, I employ the following measures: 1. Before the main game begins, I hold a session zero via discord to discuss concerns and establish boundaries. 2. I utilise a safety checklist to ensure that all players are aware of potential triggers and sensitive topics. 3. During the game, I run personal channels private to that player and the GM, allowing players to communicate their comfort levels or any other issues. This campaign will be conducted as Asynchronous Play by Post, posting via text as and when you have time. We will use Discord for all communications, DND Beyond for character sheets and resources and the Avrae bot for dice rolling and combat. I use as much description in my text as possible to make the game as immersive as possible, while keeping short enough to be able to read in short bursts, which is the way for PBP. Organised Discord channels, linked to your DnD Beyond character makes for swifter progress in the story and prevents stagnation.
