How will character creation work

Characters will be created on DNDBeyond. All characters begin at Level 1. No race or class restrictions; homebrew allowed with DM approval on a case-by-case basis. I ask that you make your character BEFORE the first session (so that we can jump in and maximize play time for all).

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.
