(I know it's hard not to sometimes) Setting The party has just arrived in a port city called Rethkin. They have sailed several days from the city of Waterdeep. Whilst taking in the beauty of the city, the party ventures into a pub known as the Black Barnacle. Upon entering they discover a very popular beverage known as Bourbon Toe. The bar keep describes it as being the softest of ales 🍺. Once the froth touches thine lips you will know the sweet taste of bliss! A simple trip to a small town to the north to restock the ale turns into a vast adventure of life and death. Not just for the party but for the entire civilization of Faerun as they know it!

Additional Details

How to prepare

We will play via discord. Character sheets must be ready prior to game start time. A mic is required and a Webcam is not.(although being able to see the players allows me to read their emotions) Rules do not need to be read ahead of time. I will discuss them prior to game start. Dice rolls are via the honor system. Use your own dice. Please do not cheat your rolls. If at all possible I would like to see character sheets prior to game day.

What I provide

An epic adventure filled with excitement! There are a multitude of monsters that are completely new and created specifically for this campaign. There are quite a few references to pop culture made very subtly but noticeable. Players not going to make it this week? That's ok, just push the shiny button on top of the meeseeks box for some extra help. Just an example of what I mean. stop on in and have some fun!!!

CONTENT WARNINGS Descriptions of gore/violence Adult Language Alcohol Peril Sense of urgency Demon infestation Pop Culture references HOMEBREW CAMPAIGN ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Safety tools I use I will discuss with players prior to game start whether we want to use content safety or not. If safety is to be used I will specifically say "content warning" several times before continuing. A player can simply send a direct message as their X card. At this point I will have said player mute me and send a message that I have been muted. I will continue with the description for the others. Once done I will re message said player to unmute and we will continue. Please be respectful of other players as some people can only handle so much.

How will character creation work

A level 3 character will be needed for this game. Characters must be created prior to game start time. Players can use ANY WOTC content for their characters. 500 starting gold for goodies. Static array or point buy. If you want to roll for stats you can. I have to be able to see the rolls via cam though.
