Gameplay details

In Session Zero we will be discussing the various themes of the game and determining what the players are comfortable with and not comfortable with. Some themes are ingrained in the campaign book and need to be discussed so I have adequate time to rewrite those ideas. I have a very low tolerance for disrespect and take the DM/Player contract very seriously. Also, I am very open to discussing things before and after a game.

How will character creation work

I'm very generous with character creation. We will be starting at level 1, and leveling throughout the campaign via experience gain, rather than milestone. As far as races are concerned, I have most class/race options in DnDBeyond, and if something is missing that you'd like to play, let me know. Characters will be 'locked in' at level 5. This means that up through level 4, you will be able to change your class/subclass between sessions if you decide you don't like the ones you've chosen.

Players can expect

• Find a game to join solo or search for a professional game master for you and your friends/coworkers/family.
• Book your session and wait for the Game Master to approve you.
• If you don't have a blast with your first game, your next game is on us.
