About the adventure

[Lower-level and more beginner friendly than the other one! Grow your character and love for the game along with the forest!] The forest seems to be alive... more than alive. It grows and grows at unnatural speeds, ever encroaching to and past the kingdom's borders. It swallows those who wander in, and axes have no effect. Having been uprooted from their homes, the people from the edges of the kingdom beg the heroes of the realm to do something an ordinary lumberjack cannot- venture Into the Wilderness... This game begins with players knowing their mission: to discover why and how the forest is growing so quickly, and to stop these supernatural flora. This game is perfect for those who are looking for unique environmental hazards and non-traditional combat encounters. Can you survive the Wilderness long enough to destroy it? (All nature puns are intentional)

Additional Details

How to prepare

Players are not necessarily expected to have a lot of experience with D&D 5e beforehand, I will be happy to go over things with you session 0 and onward! Mics are preferred but text chat on Discord works just as well, webcams are up to the individual. You may create your character sheet in any way you like, paper, D&D Beyond, etc. Inputting stats into Roll20 is optional; that only represents your character on the map. You do not need your own dice as my Discord server has a dice bot (but I encourage dice simply for the fun!)

What I provide

All players gain access to my Discord server, where the game will be played over voice chat. It is an easy place to keep track of notes, maps, loot, and status conditions from game to game!

Gameplay details

I use the RPG consent checklist: for this particular game, bugs, rats, spiders, freezing, heatstroke, hunger, natural disasters, severe/extreme weather, thirst, and any other hazards you can think of involving being outside are central to its premise and are non-negotiable. *I NEVER allude to nor condone sexual assault in any of my games.* Snacks during gameplay are encouraged (as long as your mic is off while chewing) We will take a 10-15 minute break around halfway through for stretching, bathroom, etc. unless we're having too much fun! Debriefing after the session involved feedback: did you have fun? Is there anything you want to see more/less of going forward? Etc.

How will character creation work

This is a low-level, beginner-friendly campaign! We will start at level 3. Session zero will be creating characters, establishing character motivations, forming inter-party relationships, and stuff of that nature! I will also be adding players to the Roll20 game (if you do not have a Roll20 account, that will be created during this time)
