About the adventure

While in Waterdeep, you accept an ordinary quest and find yourself together on a carriage towards Triboar. You meet Willurin Talrand, a curator and part time mage who was tasked with a very important mission, transporting a very valuable chest of unknown origins, to hand it over to his contact who will be waiting at the destination. What starts as a small time offer to gain some valuable coin turns into a deeper ploy involving various groups including the Soft Claws from Neverwinter. You face orcs and dragons and try to stay on top of it and hopefully come out victorious and heroic. If you are new I highly encourage you to give this adventure a try (my first group was all new players and they enjoyed it a lot). The goal is a very well rounded and relaxed experience with tense moments - perfect for new and old. We will take things easy and explain rules as we go, and if you are a veteran and want something low level but still heroic feel free to chose this game to keep you busy for a few weekends.

About me

Hello, everyone! My name is Drasko but online I usually go by Azzy which is one of my main characters that I created when I started playing DND. I began my RPG journey in 2018 with a Westmarch Discord server called the Forgotten Vanguard. Learning 5e was a blast and I had a lot of fun, playing in games daily for a long while. Soon after learning enough about the rules I also started to DM games myself and over the years I have played and DMed everything from low level to level 20 and above and I've played with many different types of players and I've seen it all.

Character creation

Creating your character

You will be making a level 3 character, which will be level 4 before the final session. Using the 2024 PHB and onwards. I also have it on Roll20 but not on Beyond. Stats can be Standard Array or Point Buy 28 Points. Starting equipment is class equipment + background gold. If your background has no gold then you get 10 gp at the start. You may use your gold to buy mundane items or ask for things to be changed (example - if your cleric wants a sword instead of a mace as starting You may roll HP in discord or roll20 or take the average

What to expect

Preparing for the session

Once you join the game you will get a link to a discord server where we can discuss character creation and if you need help I can help you with making one. You also need a roll20 Account so you can join the link and make a character.

What Azzy brings to the table

This is a short high fantasy adventure in Faerûn that I thought of that will be played in a couple sessions. It features some of my favourite organisations and characters that exist in the Sword Coast. I love making players feel heroic and want to do good things so this whole game is based on that, its you doing a small job which turns into a big deal. At level 3 you are small time aspiring heroes and the quest you are doing is very important. And I want every player to feel that. Its a very standard fantasy game where you are confronted by adversaries and have to save the day. Who doesn't love that! I have prepared maps and tokens and found fitting music and themes for all important scenes and fights and hope everyone enjoys what we create together.

Homebrew rules

Drinking a potion is a bonus action for yourself! An eldritch 20 or Nat 20 in Medicine heals a creature for a single hit die once per rest. For dire situations! Dropping to 0 still lets you crawl and move 5ft and getting hit while making death saves does not induce 2 failures!

Safety

How Azzy creates a safe table

I will help everyone before session 1 as much as I can. After session 1 we can talk about wants and wishes and i'll ask for some feedback after each game. Additionally in the roll20 game there is the X and N card.
