About the adventure
Goblins. Kobolds. Gnolls. Minotaurs. For all of time, they've kept their numbers in check by slaughtering each other by the thousands. Should they stop, they'd soon overrun the towns and cities. Now, something has changed in this endless war. Bold, daring leaders among these peoples are uniting their tribes and clans. They no longer war among themselves. Which means now the towns and villages of the land face an army almost without number, united in purpose and ready to fight. > Stand against vast armies of inhuman monsters > Fight to protect the kingdom from ruin > Uncover the secrets of Giantclaw's plan and stop him before it's too late

About me
> Want to explore a rich, vivid and responsive world? > Enjoy fast, dynamic, interesting combat? > Want the power to tell your character's story your way, going off the railroads to follow whatever goals you wish? > Looking for a gameplay experience where every NPC has a name, goals and a story of their own? My philosophy is about fast combat, creative play and player freedom. At my table, combat and roleplaying are smooth, dangerous, flexible and fun.

What William brings to the table
I'll provide a virtual tabletop (VTT), including digital player sheets, professional player resources and custom quality battlemaps. This includes the Van Richten's Guide to Ravenloft module published by Wizards of the Coast, plus official 5e expansions like Xanathar's Guide, Sword Coast Adventurers' Guide, Volo's Guide and plenty more. I also provide the result of dozens of hours of work creating unique maps, tokens, NPCs, monsters and mechanics. Each settlement is richly brought to life. Every major NPC has a personality, including plans, desires and fears. Learning these isn't necessary but is often helpful.
Homebrew rules
> Drinking a potion is a bonus action > An optional limitbreak system - by pushing yourself to new heights, your attacks and spells become more powerful yet more volatile for a short while > Enemy factions will advance their schemes unless you stop them. Friendly factions will need the relationship managed.
