About the adventure
This game has been discounted from my usual $25 price. Why you ask? Well I need your help. I started with StartPlaying back when it was in beta. When pandemic hit StartPlaying asked me to help run custom games and special events. When pandemic restrictions were lifted I went back to playing in person games and left StartPlaying for a while. I am back but I need your help to help my to raise my hosted game count and add more reviews to my profile. I hope you can help me and we can have an amazing time telling this story together. This is my most popular D&D 5e One-Shot. It is highly reviewed, won some awards and players new and experienced love the module. It is designed for both beginner players in mind but experienced players will love it as well. You are a group of monster hunters known as The Order sent on a mission to retrieve an item so that it does not fall into the wrong hands. You must make your way through a graveyard, crypt and solve a puzzle as each character’s stories unfold and intertwine with each other. The game has carefully designed characters to choose from.

Additional details
How to prepare
Make sure you have a computer with the latest up to date browser from Chrome, Firefox or Edge. Safari unfortunately does not work with Foundry VTT. Make sure your browser has WebGL enabled. A good headphones and microphone is required. A webcam is highly suggested but not required. Foundry does tend to be a video RAM and/or RAM resource hog. For this make sure that you have a integrated GPU to enable hardware acceleration and 8gb of RAM. Must have a display that is no smaller than 1366x768. Most modern computes can do this with maybe an exception of Chromebooks.
What I provide
Upon confirmation I will provide the link to the website online where we will be using Foundry Virtual Tabletop to play the game. The game will have the choice of characters with their character sheets already set up.
