About the adventure

For 500 years, the Oath of Peace has kept the gods and titans from each other's throats. The archipelago of Thylia has grown populous in the centuries since the great war, but one need only look past the great monuments of the cities and prospering farmlands to find the scars of old wars. Ravening beasts haunt ancient and abandoned ruins. Armies of centaurs and giants mobilize on the northern plains. Out at sea, terrible storms unlike any in living memory darken the horizon. The titans have held their fury for for 500 years...but no longer. Join our band of mythic heroes to fight the rising threat of the titans and see the order of the Dragonlords restored in this ongoing campaign inspired by Greek myth! About the Players I am a professional DM with 12 years of gaming experience and nearly 10,000 hours logged in Roll20. I enjoy running games where players are immersed in their characters and put as much emphasis on the story of the adventure as the gameplay. My goal is to ensure that everyone at the table is feels engaged and safe to express their creativity even as they slice off hydra heads and style on tyrant kings. We all in it together to craft our own little legend that is epic in scope but personal in nature. Around the table we also have three awesome players equally dedicated to storytelling and strategic combat. Currently the party consists of a studious but ill-fated wizard, a seafaring rogue cursed by her family's past, and a proud demigod wielding sword and sorcery in his quest for glory. They have made many friends and lost a few over their journey, but now they are looking for brave new recruits to swell their ranks as they sail off to face mystical lands, strange magics, forgotten civilizations, and the wrath of the Titans themselves. Details Games are held weekly at Thursday 2:30-6:30 EST. They are hosted on Roll20 with Discord used for voice chat. Players who value immersing themselves in the story and don't mind slower paced sessions will likely enjoy our game. This isn't to say that we don't get into combat, however, and fights can at times be deadly. Please message me on Roll20 with inquiries. From there I will schedule a 1 on 1 meeting with you via Discord to further discuss your character and expectations for the game.

About me

Hello! You can call me CrunchyCrab, or Anthony. I've been a game master for six years and a player for many years before that, but I've been a storyteller my whole life. With a background in screenwriting and filmmaking, I like bringing my cinematic sensibilities to RPGs to craft memorable moments through narrative and gameplay. Roleplaying games, especially ones hosted online, create a unique opportunity to meet folks from all walks of life in all parts of the globe. I am proud to bring together people from different countries, of any and every gender-identity, and all levels of experience in my games. Creating a welcoming environment at the table is my top priority, and as such I employ safety tools that allow players to communicate clearly and without judgement—to myself and others at the table. While I'm new to the StartPlaying community, I've been running professional games on my own via Roll20 and Foundry since 2020. The pandemic inspired me to take my passion for pen and paper games and turn it into a profession. Since then I've logged more than 2,500 hours (over 100 days!) GMing games for dozens of players, many of whom have stuck with me for years. I specialize in running extended campaigns, and enjoy seeing players develop their characters over time. Although D&D and Pathfinder have been my core business, I love learning and experimenting with new systems and am always looking to add more to my repertoire. Thanks for checking me out, and I hope you find the game that's right for you!

Character creation

Creating your character

We are using the 2014 ruleset for this game. Our group of 3 players is at level 11, and with campaign continuing to 15 we are approaching our epic conclusion. We are welcoming new heroes to help us finish the fight for the fate of Thylea! This campaign features unique mythic paths for each character to build their own legend as the story unfolds. There are also setting-specific subclasses found in the player's guide linked below. Characters receive a feat of their choice at 1st level. Because of this, the variant human subrace is banned (1 free feat for everyone is enough). The Lucky feat is also banned. 3rd party content, Unearthed Arcana, and homebrew are subject to my approval.

What to expect

Preparing for the session

All you need is a microphone, a discord account, and a Roll20 account. DnD Beyond account optional.

What CrunchyCrab brings to the table

Game is run on Roll20 with heavy use of additional and customized assets provided by myself and sometimes by players. I utilize ambient music and thematic battle maps and scenes to set the mood. Our group takes sets a slower pace for roleplay to allow plenty of time for players to talk and explore their characters in depth. However, when combat does kick off we try to keep things fast, intense, and (mostly) by the book.

Homebrew rules

Drinking potions is a bonus action, use a reaction to grant flanking bonuses, 3.5 measuring rules, free 1st level feat, ban on Lucky feat and Twilight Cleric.

Safety

How CrunchyCrab creates a safe table

Player safety is always a top priority at my table. Players are free to stop gameplay at any time when they are uncomfortable with content. I am always open to modifying gameplay to veil or eliminate material that makes players feel unsafe in any way.
