About the adventure

The Futurama one-shot is a DnD 5e adventure that runs through 1-3 scenarios based loosely on different Futurama episodes. You can choose from one of 10 player characters based on the show's characters - most of whom are level 5. While I don't mind explaining features that may be odd-ball because of the homebrew used to make the characters, you will need to know the basics of DnD and how to play. Familiarity with Futurama is welcomed, but not required. discord link: https://discord.gg/zN7rZqYP

Additional Details

How to prepare

At the very minimum, you will need: - Basic knowledge on how to play DnD 5e; - Dice, or access to a dice roller app; - Discord account, a mic, ability to see streamed content on Discord (joining on your phone is not recommended as the screen will likely be too small to view the tabletop).

What I provide

Combat and Story are theatre of the mind. I do attempt to do NPC voices, but how long I can maintain the voice depends on how strenuous it is on my vocal cords and the length of time needed to keep voicing the NPC. This one-shot's combat should mostly be quick and easy, with a couple of optional, more intense boss fights. Character sheets will be provided.

Gameplay details

Possible triggers: As a one-shot based on Futurama, you can expect a lot of humor that is in the same vein as Matt Groening's work. This includes dark humor related to death/injury/mental illness, off-color humor, and satirical takes on law/religion, among other things. If table top games had a rating like movies, this one-shot would be rated PG-13.

How will character creation work

Characters will be pre-made by the DM. These characters are made in an off-brand likeness of 10 Futurama characters: Fry, Bender, Leela, Zoidberg, The Professor, Amy, Hermes, Zapp Brannigan, Kif, and Scruffy. All, except one character, are level 5. Those who join the one-shot first get priority on picking characters. Character sheets will be sent via Discord message. All spell-casting characters only use spells from the DnD 5e Player's Handbook, so you will need access to it. All other abilities are listed on the character's sheet.

Players can expect

  • Combat/Tactics: Medium
