Additional Details

How to prepare

You will need to join the Discord and the DnDBeyond campaign. A Roll20 room will also be available for some sessions. We will use in system dice-rollers on DDB, Roll20, or Discord. Cosplay welcome, but not essential - although I will judge you by the quality of your Bri'ish accent... (also not essential!)

What I provide

I will provide the Discord server, the Roll20 room, and the DDB campaign, as well as a Syrinscape sound source.

Gameplay details

3+ players needed to start. This will be a heroic, pulp adventure across the stars! While there are many Content Warnings, the game is built with a PG-13 (UK-15) rating in mind, and Lines and Veils are an essential component of all my games. Swashbuckling adventure on the high seas in the tradition of Our Flag Means Death, Pirates of the Caribbean, and Treasure Island! A roleplay-heavy adventure, where diplomacy is just as sharp as any blade!

How will character creation work

Characters will begin at 3rd level and can be created on D&D Beyond using any licensed WotC material (with the exception of Silvery Barbs). Standard Array or Point Buy method. Some pre-gens are available for late joiners, early die-ers, and first-time players. Characters will begin as crew-members of a Spelljamming vessel leaving a world consumed by a strange fungal plague...
