Heliana's Monster Hunter Guild

About the adventure

You are an adventurer who has stumbled or been invited to a tavern set adrift in the astral sea. This tavern called The Loot Tavern is home to The Monster Hunting Guild ran by Heliana, a hunt-master, inspirational speaker, and astounding barbecuer. • A monster hunting adventure engaging with unique creatures! • Investigate creatures to find their weaknesses to plan your attack! • Harvesting of fallen foes to use for crafting or cooking! • Challenging tactical combat balanced with sandbox exploration. • Custom animated tokens of player characters! • Custom tokens and animated maps • Soundtrack and ambient noise provided in session • Inclusive environment for all identities, both in and out of game • After-session communication for any questions, concerns, or banter Heliana's Guide to Monster Hunting is a perfect setting for players who love monster hunting, crafting magical items from those monsters, plane hopping to wild environs, and meeting eccentric npcs. Heliana's Guide is inspired by games such as the Monster Hunter video game series, introducing a new class called the Tamer that is inspired by the Pokemon video game series, and is in general a lighter hearted tone on adventuring through dangerous locales to battle powerful monsters.

Gameplay details

In Session 0 we will go over your beginnings and how you got to level 3 before you joined or found out about Heliana's Guild and build a character that can be used on session 1 of the campaign. I will go over lines/veils, table rules, and the multiple places you can access the x,n, and o cards at the start of the session. If any of the content warnings are a line, the campaign can be adjusted to not include it, and not all content warnings are guaranteed to appear but just have the chance to appear in the campaign. Any questions you have for Foundry VTT or D&D if you are new can also be addressed at the start of the game or before the game starts if you would like.

How will character creation work

• We will use new rules and themes in Heliana's Guide to Monster Hunting • Official content/homebrew/third-party content can be allowed upon review but might be changed. • Point buy or Standard Array for ability scores, take average HP on level-ups. • Take starting equipment from class and background. Additional items/equipment may be given for session 0 as you are level 3 and figure out your backstory. • Adjustments to your character for the first few sessions as you find out who they are or who you want them to become can be available.

Players can expect

• Find a game to join solo or search for a professional game master for you and your friends/coworkers/family.
• Book your session and wait for the Game Master to approve you.
• If you don't have a blast with your first game, your next game is on us.
