Introduction to Draw Steel and the Codex

Title: A New Age of Iron System: Draw Steel Platform: Codex (VTT) & Discord (Voice), monthly meetings in person in Chevy Chase, MD (Near Washington, DC) Availability: 1-2 seats available (already have 4 players) Time: Saturdays 2-6 PM EST. Tone: Serious, not quite grimdark. Somewhere between GoT and BG3 Hook: In the shadow of the Iron Covenant, you and a group of other heroes struggle against darkness and tyranny! Requirements: 18+ only, reliable attendance, a solid mic/camera, and a willingness to engage with the setting (Lore primers for different subjects available, further info available at request). If interested, send me a DM on Discord and we can hop in a call and chat for a bit! I am about to start running a narrative- / RP-focused Draw Steel game, and am looking for several players to join this new campaign. We meet on weekly Saturdays for 4 hours, 2PM-6PM. We're looking for excited players, newbies more than welcome. We meet online over discord, and use our cameras, and have an in-person session about once a month! Players should be in the DC/NOVA/Southern Maryland area and have the ability to travel once every month or two to Chevy Chase, MD. All levels of experience with Draw Steel (we're all new but are 5e vets)/roleplaying games are welcome. The game I run uses official Draw Steel rules and ancestries in a homebrew world, but I'm open to reviewing homebrew classes and races if that interests you. I'm running an RP-focused game, so if you're more for the Diablo "kill shit get loot" style, it may not be for you. I have worked with my players to make characters who fit into the world, and will do this with anyone who joins! My only pet peeves are people who are never available/flake and complainers. We do not tolerate hate of any kind at the table. We have a list of lines/veils and some cultural fit things in this google doc, but it isn't necessary to read it before reaching out. Culture Doc If you have any questions, or would like to join, please DM me here or on discord (username QuirkyEclipse)!

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.

As villages burn across the realm, heroes must rise. In this beginner friendly campaign, a simple contract quickly sweeps you into a conspiracy that threatens the entire realm.

Will you rise as legends, or be turned to ash? This campaign includes Tyranny of Dragons and Dragon Delves, creating an epic adventure that will take you from level 1 to level 20!
