About the adventure
Tomb of Annihilation | Dinosaurs, Undead & the Death Curse | Beginners Welcome! Deep in the jungles of Chult, death has become permanent. Can your party uncover the truth before it's too late? A mysterious Death Curse is spreading across the world. Resurrection magic is failing, ancient evils are stirring, and somewhere within a deadly prehistoric jungle lies the answer. Your adventure begins with a dangerous expedition into Chult, where towering dinosaurs roam, undead creatures stalk forgotten ruins, and every discovery brings you closer to an ancient and terrifying secret. What awaits you: Cinematic encounters: Detailed battle maps, atmospheric music, immersive sound effects, and memorable characters. Meaningful decisions: Explore dangerous locations, forge alliances, uncover secrets, and shape the direction of your adventure. Deadly but fair challenges: Smart tactics, creative solutions, and teamwork matter. The dangers are real, but your choices make a difference. Beginner-friendly guidance: New to D&D? You're welcome! I'll help with character creation, rules, and learning the game as we play. Whether you're a veteran adventurer or rolling your first d20, prepare for an unforgettable expedition into one of D&D's most dangerous settings. Your story begins in the jungle. Will you survive long enough to reach the tomb?

About me
Hello!! My name is Jeff and I have been playing and dreaming about D&D since I was 8 years old. I love the fantasy and Sci-Fi genre and now I want to bring that love and passion to other players. My daily job is being the bard of wine so I have been a professional storyteller for years. I enjoy bringing excitement and intrigue to the "table" and allowing the players to truly drive the narrative. I also truly love bringing the history and lore of D&D into my games while letting magic in every possible way have it's shining moments! Castles, gold, magic items, dungeons and dragons let's goooo!!!! I get excited just talking about it. I am a very open minded individual and I enjoy being there for the players in the games I'm running. I love the creativity that other people bring to the table and I enjoy incorporating their wisdom and knowledge into the setting. Fun by all is the number one goal! I look forward to hopefully playing with you all at some point and may you roll many Natural 20's in your adventures to come.

Creating your character
Feel free to use any sourcebook. Start at level one and we will use either point buy or the highest rolled stats from the group. It will be up to you to decide what you want for your character. We will go over all of this at the start. If you roll in advance, please roll 4 d6 drop the lowest and reroll 1s, 6 times. Creating characters is one of my favorite things so feel free to ask questions or talk about your character's backstory at anytime. Have fun with it and nothing is too crazy!
What to expect
Preparing for the session
Adventurers will be expected to provide the following: • A microphone of standard quality and a free Discord account used to join the group as well as speak to your fellow adventurers. • A webcam is not required. There are no expectations to have, or use, a webcam in any capacity at this venture but feel free to do so! • A free D&D Beyond account where character creation will happen! • Headphones are recommended for the best experience to hear your fellow adventurers and DM clearly.
What Jeff brings to the table
You can expect the following in this adventure: - I provide most of the sourcebooks from both 2014 and 2024 ruleset from D&D Beyond. - I do use self generated AI rooms at times to create particular moods and settings. - I use maps from sourcebooks as well as generated maps from the internet - I use Syrinscape for sound effects and ambient music as well as different musical artists and powerful, maybe popular songs to identify characters and NPCs. - I love artwork of characters and places and will help you create that as well if you're interested. - I like sticking to the rules but if there is something that your character needs or wants and it makes sense then I'm down!

How Jeff creates a safe table
Player Safety & Table Expectations My goal is to provide a welcoming, respectful, and enjoyable D&D experience where everyone feels comfortable participating. Tomb of Annihilation is a challenging adventure featuring dangerous jungle exploration, undead creatures, frightening environments, deadly traps, and the possibility of permanent character death. These elements are part of the adventure, but player comfort and mutual respect always come first. Before joining, players are encouraged to communicate any topics or situations they would prefer to avoid. We will establish boundaries using Lines and Veils, and players may privately contact me if concerns arise during the campaign. I encourage teamwork, creativity, and open communication. Harassment, discrimination, bullying, and inappropriate behavior toward other players will not be tolerated. The goal is to challenge your characters, not make players uncomfortable. Together, we'll create a memorable adventure where everyone can enjoy the story, even when the dangers of Chult become deadly.
