About the adventure
Step right up, adventurous souls, and prepare to delve into the dark depths of the cavernous expanse in a tale shrouded in mystery and ancient whispers. Test your might against the relentless and ever-evolving vermin of the under-realm, commanded by the ambitious and equally cursed “Rat King” – a were-rat alchemist whose grotesque experiments have birthed the horrifying "laser rats". Face an adversary whose motives are as tangled as the cavern's winding paths, spiraling into the abyss of insanity due to a dark influence that has gripped him. What lurks in the shadows? Is it merely the Rat King's delusion or does the elusive "Old Voice" truly exist? As you explore the depths, uncover the cavern's haunting past - the remnants of a long-forgotten cult that once praised the Old Voice. But be warned, spend too much time near these insidious artifacts, and you might hear whispers tempting you to surrender to the deep waters below. So come, join the game, and see if you have the courage to uncover the truth, stop the Rat King's army, and silence the Old Voice. A world teetering on the brink of chaos is waiting for heroes to save it - are you one of them? Will you face the darkness, or will you join the whispers in the deep? Only the bravest will find out. Venture forth, if you dare!
Additional Details
How to prepare
Hardware: - Computer - Headset (recommended) If you use your computer speakers or a microphone, you could get background noise. I recommend a headset for communication, but it's not required. Software: - Discord & Discord Account (Free) - Roll20 & Roll20 Account (Free) - DNDBeyond Account (Recommended) You can use character sheets in Roll20, which works, but DND Beyond is easier. I can also share my books with you from DND Beyond, which will give you access to new subclasses.
What I provide
I will bring tons of maps, tokens, my premium Roll20/DNDBeyond accounts, and a story I took a long time crafting to make engaging and challenging.
Gameplay details
- There will be no sexual assault of any kind in my games, not even jokes. There will be zero tolerance. - Respect other players and their choices. Hostile insults will get one warning, and then the offending player will no longer be welcome. (Hostile insults meaning that the target did not find it funny) - The process for discussing something you are uncomfortable with, another player, etc is just to send me a private message on discord or start playing.
