Shadows in Cyrodiil (Elder Scrolls Adventure/Beginner Friendly)

Creating your character

You don't have to create a character ahead of session 0 but will need one before the first session. Session 0 is also free. If you don't like the vibe of myself or the rest of the group no harm, no foul. Note: I will not accept characters made with AI. Please make a character on your own. I would much prefer 3-4 real lines than pages of AI generated content. Characters will start at whatever level fits the campaign, using either the 2014 or 2024 rules. I personally prefer and know the 2014 version better but don't mind either. We'll hold a session 0 and have a discord server for anything and everything Campaign related. I'll work with each player to build out their character. If you're a new player just let me know and I'll be happy to walk you through the process. Anything official is up for use. I don't mess with homebrew character options much. Character sheets will be hosted on roll20 but if you have a personal method, D&D beyond or a physical sheet, you can use that to track things. I'd just need the roll20 sheet and the personal method to match up.

Preparing for the session

A mic is required, but a camera isn't. Personal choice to use a camera or not. You'll need roll20 and discord accounts as well.

What Dungeon Keeper Andy brings to the table

NPCs to love and loathe! I try to make npcs stand out with speech mannerisms, accents and a wide range of alignments. Each NPC with a speaking role (meaning anyone other than random survivors) each have a personality all their own. Music is usually played during sessions as well, general ambient tracks to fit the setting and/or situation. When running combat I like to make it a challenge but not overwhelming. Some monsters will play to the party's strengths while others will be included to prod at weaknesses. Combat is where I like to stick to rules the hardest but even then might bend on a few things here and there. Under no condition will sexual content be described or roleplayed.

Homebrew rules

Reroll 1s and 2s on hit die increases. If a new, Official, class option or spell or feat or anything comes out that fits your character better than what was chosen at the time feel free to switch out for it, just let me know you're going to do it. During a Short Rest, characters with a Prepared Spells list can change out Prepared spells with any other spell they have available of the same level. Spell Scrolls can be used by anyone. They are tools like any other. Stored Saves: At the start of each session all players roll 4d20. The results of those rolls are put onto a list. On occasion during the session the DM might consult that lit of rolls for hidden saves. These will only be for saves/checks that the player character otherwise wouldn't be aware of. An example as to what this is for: An NPC has slipped poison into a player character's food without their knowledge. I'll then roll 1d4 while looking at the list and picks one of the stored saves based on the d4 roll. Checks the PC's con save and if the PC succeeded, they'll never know the attempt was made. If they fail...well they'll know in the usual way. I also sometimes use stored saves if I can't decide on who to target with an attack/effect.

How Dungeon Keeper Andy creates a safe table

Any concerns, limits or anything else that might come to mind during session 0. From there a list will be posted for anyone to see at any time. Any player can also come to me at any time for any reason.
