Learn to Play | Lost Mine of Phandelver | Your First Adventure🌈

Creating your character

We will be starting out at level 1, and you can come into session 0 with an idea of what class you want to play if you'd like. I can help you from the ground in session zero if your new to D&D, if not feel free to get your Character sheet started on D&D beyond. -We will be using point buy for our stats. -You are allowed 1 feat (so no variant human race). -Races out of the players hand book, plus Goliath. -Classes out of the payers hand book as well. -Take the starting equipment, plus one uncommon or two common magic items. Again I will be available to help you make you character from start to finish in Session 0 and I'm here if you have questions. Don't worry you don't have to have it all figured out before session 0.

Preparing for the session

I use Discord (voice & chat), Roll 20 (table top), and D&D Beyond (character sheets) to run my games. They all have free versions. Use Beyond 20 to link up Roll20 with D&D Beyond. I don't use video in my games so a camera isn't required. When you sign up for my game you'll get a link to my Discord server, the link to connect to the campaign in D&D Beyond, and a invite to the Roll 20 game. I'll be happy to answer any questions you have in set up and help you from start to finish with creating your character. Come ready to have fun.

What Arrcher brings to the table

We will be using Roll20 VTT, complete with maps, music, custom tokens, and more! Within my Discord there is a community server where you can meet other players and where additional information will be shown and shared. I will be giving access to my library in D&D Beyond so you can create your characters. I use music to help immerse us in the world. I encourage roleplay ( taking the action that your character would take) but that does not have to include voices unless you think it's fun. I do use voices for some of my npcs but I'm not perfect at it and you don’t need to be either. My mission is for everyone to have the best time they can and to build an engaging story together. You can message me through Discord with questions or concerns if you have them.

Homebrew rules

I use the rule that drinking a potion is a bonus action, but feeding it to someone else is an action. Also when you Crit (natural 20) on a attack you get full normal damage and only roll for the extra dice.

How Arrcher creates a safe table

In session 0 we will be going over our lines and veils. There will be X cards available in Roll20 at all times. After each session I will stay on discord voice to chat and be there if anyone needs to cool down and decompress after the session. Lost Mine of Phandelver contains: -Violence: The adventure features combat scenarios, including battles with various creatures and NPCs, which may involve graphic descriptions of violence. -Death: Characters may face death, and there are themes surrounding loss and mortality. -Kidnapping: The plot includes instances of kidnapping, particularly involving NPCs that players may need to rescue. -Dark Themes: Elements of betrayal, greed, and the pursuit of power are present, which can lead to morally complex situations. -Monsters: Encounters with monstrous creatures may be frightening or unsettling for some players.
