About the adventure

(You see a parchment pinned to an announcement board with a smiling drow elf in a colorful feathered hat. It appears enchanted to speak to onlookers. It also gives you this weird, uncanny valley kind of vibe, like the person who enchanted it has only seen drow from a distance.) Well met and Greetings, gentle viewer! Underdark Expeditions, Inc. is an up-and-coming organization in the Northdark focused on offering caravan guards, taking surface-dwellers on (safe) travel expeditions, and clearing out potential dangers our fellow inhabitants might come across! We’re always hiring, because the demand is high! If you’re looking for a job, look no further, you’ve found exactly the job you're looking for! Here’s what we’re offering: 💰 Excellent, market price-based pay that scales with increasing danger! Don’t get underpaid for dangerous work, adventurer! 🪎 Adventure! Danger! That’s what you adventurers like, right? It’s in the name and all… 💎 Opportunities for advancement in the Underdark Expeditions, Inc. organization! We likely have an outpost near your home town, and you may eventually find yourself managing teams of adventurers like yourself one day! Who doesn’t dream of a life of middle management... 🩸 FREE Healthcare! Yes, we hire the finest clerics to ensure our adventurer teams are in tip-top shape. Apply at one of our local outposts and we’ll get you sorted into a brand new adventuring group! There’s nothing nicer than bonding with a bunch of random strangers who you’ll soon find saving your life in tight circumstances, right? Right??? Of course! I'll be waiting for you! (The drow figure looks you right in the eye, winks, and then bows, then it goes back to its original position for the next person to pass by...)

About me

Well met! I’m an huge fan of the Forgotten Realms and thrilled to breathe life into the setting and characters for you to explore and adventure within. Playing Baldur’s Gate 3 led me to falling in love with the world of Faerûn, and I’ve been having a wonderful time creating wild and exciting stories for players in that fantastic realm. I enjoy inhabiting the realm’s characters and giving players a backdrop to explore their own character’s backstory and connections to the world. I’m happy to take you on an adventure you’ll never forget, with a gorgeous Virtual Tabletop, exciting combat, and memorable RP! Let’s go! 👀

Character creation

Creating your character

✨ Roll for stats (using a special bot on the discord server), point buy, or standard array - your choice! ⭐️ 2024 Rules ⚡️ All published Wizards of the Coast books and DNDBeyond partnered content that I own on DNDBeyond are welcome. To mesh best with the game idea, choose a species from the Underdark who has a connection to the Forgotten Realms! 🔥 Characters start at Level 1. 🏹 One common magic item to start with (that isn't a weapon or armor)

What to expect

Preparing for the session

We will be using: 🎲 Foundry VTT 🎧 Discord 🎭 D&D Beyond You will be invited to the discord when you join :)

What Cy brings to the table

🎲 Why Game With Me? 🎲 🔥 Foundry VTT-based gameplay with beautiful art, animations, sound effects, dynamic lightning, music, and other bells and whistles. Great if you enjoy a more video game-like experience with visuals. ⚔️ Fun combat that’s designed to move quickly with key automations in the VTT. Lets you focus on the fun part of strategizing and roleplaying. 🗡️ Lots of content on DnDBeyond you can use to build your character. I have Grimhollow, Crooked Moon, Critical Role, and other third party material that is welcome in my games. I also pre-order all new 5E content so you can start using it as soon as Master Tier gets access to it! 💎 Lots of loot to collect when enemies are defeated! You’ll get to enjoy all the game has to offer with magic items and consumables. 👁️ Engaging roleplay opportunities that give you a chance to talk to and potentially befriend such creatures as mind flayers, beholders, slaads, and more. You and the other players drive the narrative and can make allies with unusual personalities! ⏱️ Gaming consistency - you won’t have games cancelled on you with no notice unless someone has an emergency and we fall below our minimum play count, so look forward to game time each week. As long as three can attend, we play. 🎟️ Everyone is welcome. This is an LGBTQIA+ friendly table that welcomes queer and trans players and characters. I myself am a BIPOC non-binary DM and welcome everyone—whether you’re new to the game or experienced at playing—to join our community of likeminded people.

Homebrew rules

🧪 Drink a healing potion as an action to gain the full effect, or as a bonus action to roll for effect 🧨 Explosive Crits give you max damage on your first damage roll, then you roll the extra dice and add them as usual ⚡️ Flanking is permitted. You must be opposite the enemy to receive flanking bonus, which gives you advantage.
