I'm running this adventure on StartPlaying. Here's the link: https://startplaying.games/adventure/cmu4kuzj4004vl8041wnwo3g1 Unnatural disasters, missing priestesses, and the world’s most melodramatic Archfey. An original, lighthearted adventure for level 3-5 characters. TYPE Campaign SYSTEM Dungeons & Dragons 5e/5.5e LEVELS 3–5 EXPERIENCE Open to all AGE All Ages Welcome to Sapphire Lake! This isolated mountain region boasts stunning natural beauty and a prosperous community, all under the protection of a powerful Archfey. Only now, the high priestess of Sapphire Lake has gone missing, and the Archfey’s overwrought lamentations have caused a catastrophic flood! If a small band of adventurers can’t solve the mystery, it looks like the end for the peaceful region. Does your party have the wits, skills, and pluck to save the day? “The Shrine of Sapphire Lake” is an original short campaign from the two-person creative team at Oblique Adventures. We’ve created all-new art, stat blocks, items, and maps to bring this lighthearted adventure to life. Here is a perfect scenario for low-level characters who enjoy combat, investigation, and creative problem solving. If you love role-playing and humor, then join us in a mountain paradise where everything has gone wrong in “Sapphire Lake.” WHAT TO EXPECT • An Adventure for Levels 3-5: You can create a new character, or I’m open to bringing in existing characters of the appropriate level. • An Exciting Mini-Campaign: Depending on your style of play, this adventure generally takes from five to eight sessions to complete. • Unique Foes and Twists: We work hard on our original monsters and stories. Even experienced players will find plenty of new challenges. • Free Session 0.

Soar the skies with orcish dragon riders, brave the seas which are themselves water elementals, learn to pierce the veil between the Feywild and the Material Plane, and uncover the secrets that intertwine the most ancient beings on the planet! This epic campaign spans decades, seeing our party grow from children sharing a wondrous summer together to elders completing lifelong missions in a world shaped by their actions. Expect a rich role-playing experience filled with both heartwarming comforts and thrilling dangers. A story told through renaissance paintings and hand crafted maps packed full of secrets and wonders. I used my 20 years of video game design experience to build a custom VTT specifically for this campaign. Give it a shot, I promise I'll blow your mind!

I’m the DM for our Sunday night group. Our group recently lost one of our players. We are looking for a replacement who will fit into the table. Current campaign is CoS. We’re about half way through. The first thing to note is you should be looking for a table/group, not a game. Yes, we’re of course running a campaign right now. But the idea is we’ll be doing future campaigns as well. We have a good group going, get along well, mesh well, and I put it together with the intent of being a group of friends gaming rather than a group of randos playing a campaign. (We all did meet here in LFG). So preference actually goes to people for whom this would be the only game you’ll be in versus people in 6 games a week. On that note, experience doesn’t matter. Heck, in some ways less can be better. We don’t need a professional player. Meshing with everyone as a player is 100% what we’re looking for. So what will help you mesh the best? Here’s a few quick bullets: - Women preferred. The person who dropped out was a woman. We’d like to keep the same dynamics if possible. We are currently 3 women, 2 guys. - You should like story telling role play. Note this may be different than just role playing a character. Here’s a test: you come upon a tower in the forest, inside of which is your objective. The DM asks you to describe the tower to the group and explain what is stopping you from just walking in. If that sounds like “work” to you or there’s a bit of “that’s what the DM is for.” I get it. But you’ll probably find our play style tedious and exhausting. We are definitely not a “just get to the action” type of group. - Age: be 30+. We’re all 30+ with kids, careers, lives, etc. For multiple reasons you being in the same boat will make everyone have more fun (including you). - Have some tech ability or ability to learn. You don’t need to be a tech guru. But if you haven’t grasped the basics of the VTT by session 5 or so we can’t stop to help you out every time it’s your turn. We use FG. Powerful for DMs (yay me), not the most user-friendly UI/UX. - No goofy shit for characters, etc. No hate on that type of play, just not what we’re doing in this group. Think more GoT type play than “I ride around as a mushroom person on my tiny pet squirrel” type of play. - Enjoy a more hardcore style of play rather than typical power fantasy of 5e. Magic is toned down significantly. Long rests are rare. Much more gritty feeling than standard DnD. If you play DnD just to roll some dice and kill some orcs to blow off steam, you won’t enjoy our game. This is more like “my character is always on 2 levels of exhaustion, my spell slots are burned, I don’t have any potions, and now I’m supposed to go dive into this creepy dungeon???? Wtf!?” - Be ok with natural consequences and a DM who may say “no” to things. Not to kill creativity, but just like no, you can’t charm the king into letting you go free after you just killed his daughter. There’s no scenario that exists that will get you out of the predicament you’re currently in based on your choices. How the story develops from here (see the role play above) is yet to be seen. If this sounds like fun or your kind of group, or you just want to hear more, hit me up.
