About the adventure
Step into the halls of Strixhaven, where magic is more than power—it’s a path to discovery, identity, and legacy. As new students at the most prestigious magical university in the multiverse, you’ll attend classes, build friendships, form rivalries, and carve out your place among future legends. This campaign follows your characters through their academic journey at Strixhaven, blending roleplay, character growth, and magical mystery. You’ll navigate exams, extracurriculars, campus events, and social dynamics while developing meaningful relationships with fellow students and faculty. Your choices matter—not just in the moment, but in shaping who your character becomes over time. But beneath the excitement of student life, something isn’t quite right. Strange magical disturbances have begun to surface across campus, subtle at first, but growing in intensity. What begins as curiosity may turn into something far more dangerous, and the deeper you look, the more you’ll realize that Strixhaven holds secrets long buried. This is a character-driven campaign with a strong focus on story, relationships, and immersive roleplay. While there will be moments of danger and conflict, the heart of the game lies in the bonds you form, the decisions you make, and the legacy you leave behind. Whether you’re a prodigy, a late bloomer, or someone searching for purpose, Strixhaven offers you a chance to grow—if you can survive what’s coming.

About me
I’ve always believed that TTRPGs are living stories we create together. I’ve been GMing for years, weaving epic campaigns that mix character-driven roleplay with cinematic action. I love building worlds where players’ choices matter — from the city-sprawl politics of Ravnica to the mysterious Aetherscars of my own setting, Crystal Spire. My passion is helping players discover not just what their characters can do, but who they can become. If you’re looking for a table that feels like stepping into a novel or a film, that’s what I aim to deliver.

Creating your character
Character creation will happen during your first session, which will be free.
What to expect
Preparing for the session
We use Discord for voice an file sharing and roll20 as our VTT. Homebrew is meticulously curated in attempt to maintain balance (keeping all players roughly as powerful as each other).
What Kaz Webb brings to the table
I do attempt character voices, and I am in the process of preparing ambient music. There is indeed tactical combat where narrative dictates. And while I do favor rules as written, a case can always be made for the rule of cool. Session 0 is also always free.
Homebrew rules
Drinking a potion is a bonus action, not a full action. We have modified critical hits: if you roll a 20, roll again or take either double dice or double damage, if you get another 20 you get both and roll again... If you get three 20s in a row, it's an autokill.

Safety
How Kaz Webb creates a safe table
Session 0 is used to create a social contract, in which all boundaries are listed. Session 0 is also revisited as often as needed, and aftercare is available as needed. Any problems that pop up, my message box is always open, and things can be discussed openly. X, N, O, cards should be messaged, and vocalized to ensure they are caught.
