About the adventure

Primordial powers have slumbered long within the Dessarin Valley. But the ever-shifting winds of change have finally stirred these ancient forces, loosening the weight of the ages that have kept them at rest. But no longer can the avalanche be contained, nor the flood held back. Like a wildfire running amok in the plains of the Greenfields, all within the Forgotten Realms shall be consumed to fuel the spread of this evil. Monsters have grown bolder, preying upon settlements, livestock, and travelers. Even the seasons themselves seem in disarray! The unusually warm and stormy spring has brought down the snowmelt much sooner than expected, swelling the River Dessarin and spoiling the surrounding lands with its floodwaters. But those safe from the rising tide are not spared the fierce gales, quakes, and sudden blazes that seem to strike without warning, and fade just as quickly. Find what it takes to be a hero and save the Material Plane from the ravages of the unleashed elemental magics! This epic campaign will take adventurers from levels 1 to 10, and beyond!

How to prepare

Equipment - Player must have a microphone and stable internet connection. A webcam is preferred, but not 100% necessary. D&D 5e Rules - Players do not need any prior knowledge of D&D 5e rules - though any previous experience with d20-based RPGs is certainly helpful! :) Roll20 - Players must create an account on Roll20 prior to the session: https://app.roll20.net/login Discord - Players must create an account on Discord (and join the game's Discord server) prior to the session: https://discord.com/ You will receive the unique Roll20 campaign link and Discord server invite upon joining! :)

What I provide

I bring a Roll20 Pro subscription, 100s of tokens and maps, along with an ever-growing library custom monsters, class archetypes, feats, items, and more! I'll also bring all the tricks and techniques learned from other GMs across the internet, ready to pull any of them from my bag of holding to adapt our game to any wild ideas the players come up with!

Gameplay details

After signing up for the session, you will receive a link to my Google Drive folder with the following: Table Rules & Safety Tools - Player etiquette, expectations, and all the details of my Safety Tools Character Creation Guidelines* - Rules for creating your character (if you choose to do so) Custom Options - Original class archetype and feat options House Rules - Additions or changes to the standard D&D 5e rules * If you wish to create your own character prior to the session, this document is IMPORTANT.

How will character creation work

Let's take advantage of Roll20's macros - both for fairness and speed of play! We'll input your character sheet into Roll20, so all your character's information will be conveniently stored in one place and easily manageable. Session 0 will primarily be used for character creation and forming the initial group dynamics. 1) Players who new to D&D 5e the game will either choose from a set of premade Level 1 characters - some using homebrew options - or create their own character under GM supervision during Session 0. 2) Experienced players may build their own Level 1 character before/outside of Session 0. -Please be sure to review the Character Creation Guidelines provided in the GDrive folder. Note that non-SRD content (mostly class features and spells) will have to be input manually. The Character Creation Guidelines in my Google Drive has the complete guidelines, but the basics are: Ability Score Array (15, 14, 14, 12, 10, 8). Standard equipment for your Class; 1 consumable Common magic item (e.g. potion of healing, 1st-level spell scroll) **Subject to restriction in Character Creation Guidelines.
