About the adventure
"The Weredragon came at night. Entire districts burned to ash. You survived, alone amid the scorched streets. By morning, each of you bore the same mark. A brand that hadn't been there before. And somewhere above the clouds, the Weredragon knows you're still alive." YOU CREATE THE VILLAIN The Weredragon isn't a monster I hand you from a book. You help create it. During Session 0, we'll decide together where it came from, what it wants, what makes it terrifying, and what powers and habbits it possesses. Then I'll take everything we create and build the campaign around it. YOU HELP CREATE THE WORLD The Weredragon's influence reaches across an entire realm of ancient forests, forgotten civilizations, sprawling cities, dangerous swamps, and places that have never been mapped. Every player will also have the opportunity to create a region of the world. • A kingdom built on the back of a colossal beast? • A floating city ruled by centaurs? • A civilization hiding beneath an ancient jungle? If you can imagine it, we can find a place for it in the world. And once the campaign begins, your creations aren't just background lore. they become places your characters explore, people they meet, and problems they have to deal with. Inspired by Daggerheart's "Reign of the Weredragon" campaign frame, adapted for D&D 5.5e.

About me
Well met! Do you enjoy gritty fantasy, memorable characters, and the occasional laugh in the face of an untimely demise? Then you might feel right at home at my table! I've been GMing since 2018, running character-driven adventures inspired by writers like Joe Abercrombie and George R. R. Martin, as well as video games such as The Witcher, Shadow of the Colossus, and Dragon Age: Origins. Above all, my goal is for everyone at the table to have a great time. I want my games to be a place where you can relax, get invested in your character, share a laugh, and let your imagination run wild. My games tend to focus on roleplay, meaningful interactions, and character-driven storytelling, with combat that serves a purpose rather than simply filling time. I favour theatre-of-the-mind gameplay, using descriptive narration, ambient music, and sound to bring scenes to life rather than relying on maps and visual aids. My aim is to recreate the feeling of sitting around a real-life table & sharing a story with friends. So let's roll some dice, make questionable decisions, surprise each other, and create a story worth remembering. See you at the table!

Creating your character
During Session 0, we’ll go through character creation step by step and discuss how each character fits into the world. You can already come with a prepared sheet in any form (pen&paper, pdf, link, etc..)
What to expect
Preparing for the session
🎓Knowing the basics of D&D 5.5 helps, but it’s not required. New players are welcome, and I’ll provide guidance along the way. 🎤Make sure you have access to Discord and a reliable microphone
What IvanGMT brings to the table
A Theater of the Mind experience, we will be using Discord as our voice/video chat - Video is not required, but it’s a welcome addition nonetheless. There will be occasional ambient/action music. Rule of cool applies, the amount of combat we will experience depends on the group - whether they are the kind who likes to engage or avoid. You decide!
