Moonlight Theater - A night of mystery - A Level 8, High-RP Adventure

About the adventure

Looking for a lively and upbeat game that rewards creative thinking, bold decisions, and player engagement? Then join us for the party of the century! The game will be heavily roleplay-based, with plenty of options for a fight depending on the choices you make. Our adventure begins on the beautiful island of Olypmia. Whether your character already calls the island home or whether they're a traveler exploring a new land, they find themselves holding a golden ticket -- an invitation to join The Moonlight Theater for their Grand Opening! It is an honor to receive such a ticket, as you will find it also grants you access to the most raucous after party The Island of Theros has ever seen. As they say, it will be "the tits!" However, there is much more to this night than it would appear, as there is sinister plotting afoot and you're the only one that can solve this mystery... 🌈 LGBT+ friendly ✨️ high magic 🎭 drama 🔍 mystery 🧙‍♂️ high RP 🕶 rule of cool 📖 homebrew 🏠 house rules

Additional Details

How to prepare

You will need a mic and discord You will be given access to the optional D&D Beyond and Roll20 before playing if you would like to build your character directly. I will be doing all my rolling with physical dice, please feel free to do the same or your preferred rolling method! I will provide a small list of house rules at the start of the game during introduction.

Gameplay details

This one shot will rely heavily upon roleplaying and player interaction, there will be opportunity to trigger fights or even talk your way out of it with a good roll! At least some D&D experience is required, however I am willing to start 15 minutes earlier for assistance with roll20 or to set up characters for those not overly familiar with character creation. All players are free to use preferred tools such as Roll20, D&D beyond or good ol' fashion paper and pen. All players will be given the opportunity to introduce your characters as a part of the narrative at the start of the game. As a DM I like to reward fun, creative playing with inspiration points! I like to air on the side of rule of cool and will provide a small list of house rules to make the game more fun for everyone at the start of the game (e.g chug a potion as a bonus action!) The game will take anywhere between 2-4 hours depending on character interaction and will include a mini break after the first hour of play (5 min) and longer break (15 min) break after the 2hr mark, entirely dependent on a good place to break within the narrative and/or fight. I will provide a link to discord, roll20 and (optional) D&D Beyond once players have joined the game along a few instructions for roll20 prior to the start of play.

How will character creation work

Level 8, prepare characters ahead of time by rolling 4 dice and drop the lowest for each stat. You may max HP on levels 1-3 and keep the average score for all levels after if you roll below it. I accept all published materials for character creation, including Critical Roll.
