About Novercalis

Over 25 years of D&D with 13 year / 5,000+ hours on Roll20 as a DM primarily. My Roll20 Profile: https://app.roll20.net/users/228428/novercalis I am also the reddit moderator of the following D&D communities: https://www.reddit.com/r/stormwreckisle/ https://www.reddit.com/r/LostMinesOfPhandelver/ https://www.reddit.com/r/DragonOfIcespirePeak/ https://www.reddit.com/r/spelljammer/ https://www.reddit.com/r/VecnaEveofRuin/ ------------------------------ Well met adventurers, I am Novercalis, but everyone calls me Nover. To note, I am a CST time zone Dungeon Master, and am available typically from 5 PM CST to Midnight CST, but I often make time for my players when need be! I’ve been running D&D games professionally for about a year, and have been a DM for the past decade now, since 5th edition of D&D released and a bit before with 3.5 edition. I run modules of 5th edition professionally, but each one of them is heavily changed with enough spice that it feels like a whole new meal to sink your teeth into. I consider myself well informed on the balance and concepts of D&D. My adventures are typically high fantasy with dark horror & survival / gritty flavor. Personally, my favorite part of D&D is our collaborative storytelling. Each character you bring to my table has some fate to unfold, for better or worse, and it’s my job to make sure we get there together! I bring the trauma (*insert evil dm laugh*) , and you bring the laughs & excitement. I want to bring you into the worlds and live in them for the time I have you, and get lost somewhere along the way in it all. • What to expect? - Access to most sourcebooks of D&D available on roll20, as well as tools to create exactly the kind of character you’re hoping to bring to life. - Introductory lessons on how to build characters, and tailored pacing of adventuring to ensure maximum chances of success. - Custom made maps & artwork designed to bring the various world crafted to life. - A welcoming space for new players, and for veterans, to co-mingle and take on the challenges of Wizards of the Coast, including hours of expanded, homebrew content to enhance every experience. Players ask me why I do what I do, and I have one simple answer: I love Dungeons and Dragons. I genuinely hope to have you at my tables, and to share that dedication and love I have for the game for a long time to come!

How Novercalis runs games

Old School AD&D, Tactical, Crunchy, meaningful. Every action and decision has a cause and effect. Expect must of my ruling to be Rules as Intended. It terms of Rule of Cool, if it makes logical sense and fits the narrative, then I may allow it. However I am an old school D&D guy who runs a mixture of 2e, 3e and 5th rules and storytelling.
