About me

Join a campaign with one of the top-rated Game Masters on StartPlaying! I specialize in running official Dungeons & Dragons campaigns. I love introducing the game to new players, so if you're unsure of the rules, or new to online role playing games, give one of my games a try! I've run games for players from a variety of backgrounds and skill levels, including volunteering as a DM with kids and young adults with autism. My games are a safe space for LGTBQ+ players, players of colour and players with neurodiversity.

Character creation

Creating your character

Players are not required to have a character ready for campaign launch. We will be creating new characters in the first half of our 'Session 0', and then get right into game play! If you are joining after campaign launch, we will set up a one-on-one call, to get you ready for your first session. Character options will be limited to the 2024 (5.5) Player's Handbook, and the Northlands Worldbook. We will be emphasizing the viking-flavoured races and subclasses of the Northlands.

The current party

Now recruiting for campaign launch on October 14. The party is still forming. What do you want to play?

What to expect

Preparing for the session

You will need profiles for Discord and D&D Beyond (basic access for both is free). No experience with D&D, D&D Beyond, or Discord required. Reach out if you're not sure how to get started!

What Scott N brings to the table

DM is a D&D Beyond license holder (players join and use Beyond for free). By joining the campaign in Beyond, you will get access to all of the content you need.

Homebrew rules

I stick to the rules as written, rather than make you learn house rules--but if you want to *bend* the rules, describe something cool and cinematic, and it just might work!

Safety

How Scott N creates a safe table

Players will participate in Session 0, and review Lines & Veils. The Digital Deck of Player Safety will be part of this process.
