About the adventure
Three of four retired heroes from one of the world's most famous adventuring parties have been murdered. They were each discovered dead under mysterious circumstances, and now there is only one of them left alive. Ogram fears he is next to be killed, but that hasn't stopped him from hosting the funeral service for his three dead comrades. All the creatures Ogram and his fallen companions have ever known are invited to the funeral service at Ogram's estate. Ogram has hired a group of powerful adventurers to be his bodyguards for the funeral.

About me
Hello, all! I have 20 years of live action role play (LARP) experience as both a player and a storyteller. I've got years of experience incorporating diverse characters into a cooperative story experience. I started playing 5e during the lockdown and instantly became obsessed. It wasn't long before I branched out into dungeon mastering. I'm currently test-playing my homebrew world loosely set in Faerun, and will set a campaign there on request. I've begun running one-shots at conventions in the PNW, and it's always a delight to bring random people together for a game. My table is a safe, queer-friendly space. This is non-negotiable.

Creating your character
Characters start at 15th level. Stats can be standard array or rolled on the Roll20 platform. 2 rolls, take the highest if rolled. Characters will be created in Roll20. No evil characters. Neutral is fine. All players will be expected to bring a certain level of enlightened self-interest to their characters, for group cohesion.
