If you like cinematic and fast-paced gameplay with immersion at the heart of it all, that's precisely the type of games I offer!
Never played Dungeons and Dragons before?
New players are more than welcome, this adventure has just the right amount of intrigue, heroism, and memorable moments to get you into the hobby!
Don't know the rules too well?
Doesn't matter, I'll prompt you for rolls based on your choices!
Don't have a character ready?
Make a character on DnDBeyond with one of these options:
- The Standard Builder streamlines the process
- The Quick Builder can have a character ready in under 5 minutes
- The Premade characters let you get going instantly
If we get enough players overlapping at a certain time, I'll reach out to confirm with each.
We'll have a mini session 0 about 30 minutes before the one shot starts to ensure we're all comfortable with the player characters and dark fantasy cultist themes expected in the adventure.
Disclaimer: To be transparent about how this will work going forward, I plan to keep these as free seats at a paid table. The first 2 seats are fully free for early applicants for my one-shots or mini-campaigns. The table sizes goes up to 6 players.
I got permission from the mods for this since they are expressly free seats with no temporary catches or upselling involved. If you get in for a one-shot or mini-campaign, you ride through all sessions for it for free because you signed up early and got the ball rolling.
For anyone that wants to know more about the back-end, prices at kept to the minimum allowed by the platform it's hosted on, and I have firm goals of raising production quality as much as I can (and there are SO many things to build on!), i.e., purchasing and moving over to using Foundry VTT, sharing digital books for more player options on online character builders, commission artists for characters and npcs portraits, animation modules for spells and attacks, premium music and ambience packages, premium maps and adventures, etc.
I know this is a lot but I'd appreciate transparency from someone doing a project like this so I figured I'd do the same for anyone that cares about it. I also acknowledge I'm aspiring to a lot that probably won't bear out, but I'd like to build the quality and deliver the best I can to the community in return. There are more plans for particular days for fully free table games, some exclusively for beginners, some for non-dnd systems, etc, but I'll cross that bridge if I ever come to it. Enough yapping out of me, let's get to rolling dice!
