About me
A lover of storytelling and writing, Zari's life goal is to inspire people through her words, providing a safe space and drawing together a community of like-minded people. She discovered Dungeons and Dragons in late 2017 and dove in headfirst, immediately sliding into the Dungeon Master seat. Her approach has always been centered around the story and characters, immediately building immersive worlds and dynamic stories for the players to seamlessly integrate. Zari enjoys the improvisation and collaborative writing aspect of Dungeons and Dragons (and other TTRPGs) and loves making all at the table feel included, important, and comfortable. She has built three total worlds, ran two full homebrew campaigns and several homebrew mini-campaigns, and played in many other table settings. Zari currently works as a Bookkeeper, Twitch Streamer/Youtuber, Writer, and now business owner. She is currently working on her debut novel, with several other books and series on the backburner, as well as continuing to write for DnD. She loves her Twitch community dearly and enjoys streaming and recording gaming content, co-working encouragement, and DnD sessions. Living in New Jersey with her fiancé and their three adorable cats, Lily, Neptune, and Ryu, she works hard to maintain a healthy and creative lifestyle, with a love for cooking, working out, and reading.

Creating your character
I will be hosting a free session 0 and character creation workshop! All of this will be worked on together or done in session 0 All DnD 2014 content and added modules are welcome! Level 15 to start and plan for three level-ups Roll for Stats (in the discord server!) or use point buy You can roll for HP or take average, but you have to stick with it the whole way (in discord server) I prefer the characters are created in DND Beyond or Roll20! Do NOT buy anything for this, I have quite a bit purchased and can homebrew/fake the rest :D I have a pantheon to choose from, as this is a homebrew world You are welcome to select any backgrounds and we can adapt as needed! I'm open on these. All characters will be a part of a guild and will be hired for this mission. Starting equipment and gold per background, then roll 8d6 x 100gp (in discord). You can use said gold to buy/sell anything non magical for regular dnd prices (listed on dndbeyond or in the players handbook) without asking me (ie. if you want better armor and can afford it, or extra weapons, or any tools) Magic Items: Please run these by me to get approval, and let me know if you want to homebrew any. Everyone receives 10 points. Use these points to select items as you so choose following the rules: Legendary=7 Very Rare=5 , Rare=3 , Uncommon=2 , Common=1
What to expect
Preparing for the session
You will need to sign up for a FREE Roll20 account If you would like to use DnD Beyond (you can do a free account), you can use the Beyond20 Extension to auto-roll to Roll20 This will be run in a Discord Server, so you will need a discord account, and a steady way to voice chat. Cameras are optional and only used if all people agree to the rules.
What Zari brings to the table
I use maps for combat and exploration in this campaign, with some theater of the mind (no maps) moments. I personally always love music and ambient sound in Roll20! You are welcome to mute it. There is high-level combat, but since it is a mini-campaign, I will avoid character death until the last fight, as it's not fun to die half way through. I do have a more of a Rule of Cool mindset, especially with high level stuff, but the rules are still amazing boundaries. Everything comes down to DM say, and my goal is to make things fair and fun!
Homebrew rules
- Drinking potions is a bonus action or if you use an action, it's max HP - Flanking rules (I can explain this!)

How Zari creates a safe table
I send a form with the table rules, a poll for what the players want/like in a campaign, and the RPG consent form (Red, Yellow, Green stoplight). We will be going over this in session 0. I am an open communicator, and will have a open direct messages for any no questions asked pauses, stops, etc. After session, I stay for a bit for people to chat and wind down, and am open to meet off session for any questions, concerns, or communication. I also send session wrap ups (optional, no requirement) to give players a chance to reflect and communicate any issues.
