Additional Details

How to prepare

A free account with dndbeyond will be needed to get access to the campaign page. There's no need to purchase any books as I'll have book sharing activated. No webcam needed but a mic that's better than the one your computer came with would be preferred. You'll need to install Discord which will be used for handouts, ambient music, and voice chat. This will be a theater of the mind game so no need for an account on a virtual tabletop.

What I provide

I have an almost complete library of player options that will be made available for character creation on dndbeyond. This is a one-shot that I've successfully (successful in that everyone had fun) run for many players of all experience levels. It includes immersive music and voiced character work (ranging from alright to pretty good) to make you feel like this is a lived in world you're exploring. I'm prepared for anything so I can't wait to see how you and your party complete this adventure.

Gameplay details

Message me your Lines and Veils before the session so I'm able to edit anything that's a Line. I'll be utilizing Breaks to provide opportunities for self-care and welcomed distractions. After the session or with what time is left we'll Debrief to allow for reflection and open communication.
