Though the Mists, an unfortunate journey through the Domains of Dread.

Dungeons & Dragons 5e on D&D Beyond, Discord, Roll20

About the adventure

The Mists have risen and absconded with you to a nightmarish world, a twisted version of reality where everything seems to have malevolent intent, and vile machinations. You are thrown together with a group of strangers, shrowded in a deep fog, and you can feel evil closing in from all sides... Welcome to "Into the Mists" an adventure for veterans and beginners alike through the Dread Domains of Ravenloft. There will be ample opportunity for roleplay, strategy, and combat with a heafty portion of exploring dark and mysterious new domains, and a smattering of puzzles to solve. How many horrors will you have to endure on your trek to escape the Domains of Dread? Will you every see home again, or will you remain forever lost in the mist? Ravenloft is a horror setting, and as such contains topics and themes that are not typically found in other D&D settings. We will use a number of safety tools to ensure player safety and respect personal needs and boundaries.

Additional Details

How to prepare

We will be using DndBeyond for Characters, Game Log, and Encounters, Roll20 for Maps, and Discord for voice and option video. Having accounts for all three entities will be necessary, free accounts are absolutely fine! The Beyond20 browser extension is helpful but not required. We'll be using digital dice rolling through DndBeyond, straight from the character sheets.

What I provide

I will be providing the campaign/ source access through DndBeyond, maps through Roll20, and will be hosting on my Discord Server.

Gameplay details

Being a horror setting, we will encounter a wide variety of potentially difficult topics. Using a lines & veils survey, individual discussions, and session zero I will become familiar with players' Lines and Veils, and will have a number of safety tools your use in game, and out of game if needed. I'll expect all players to respect each other's boundaries. Please note, as a DM I do not use or allow non-consensual sexual conduct in my games, described or implied. I'm fine with romance and consensual activity, however any physical interactions of that nature will be veiled. I also do not allow PVP. If characters want to train or spar, that's completing fine, but actual conflict will need to be handled without violence or magic.

How will character creation work

We will collaborate to create level 1 characters on DndBeyond pre-game and during session 0 (a free session) You'll be able to continue developing characters through the first gameplay session. We will run through House of Lament which will develop characters to level 3. I have access to all published 5e content thru DndBeyond.
