Additional Details

How to prepare

A Webcam/Mic is needed for this game. A general familiarity with d20 rules systems used in 5E and Shadowdark is helpful though not required. You character sheet will be referred to using these online generators.

What I provide

I will be using maps I have downloaded to my PC and they will be shared via either Discord or Zoom depending on the player's preferred format.

Gameplay details

Players can expect a fast-paced game that is rules-light. X, N, & O cards can either be messaged through the app being used or they can be held up during the game. X, N, & O cards will be used in what I refer to as the "stop light" method. This means Red, Yellow, & Green. How they will be used will be explained before the beginning of the session. Debriefing will allow us to go over the topics which have come up in the game.

How will character creation work

If you using D&D 5E, characters will be 3rd level. If using the Shadowdark System characters will need to be 4th level. Character creation for 5E should be done using D&D Beyond and for Shadowdark the online generator for that system should be used.
