Game: D&D 5e. Group type: Online. Experience: All. Timezone: EST. Schedule: Saturday evening at 6pm EST. The time can start 1 hour earlier or later (5pm / 7pm) to accommodate the group. Sessions will be spaced out bi-weekly (every other week). Roles sought: 5 players. Game style: Episodic dungeon delves.
ADVENTURE PREMISE
The PCs are a group of 1st level fledgling adventurers who are eager to try their hand at heroic questing and will be tasked with completing three dungeon delves. The adventure will use milestone leveling, with each completed dungeon delve progressing PCs by 1 level.
Coppernight Keep. Several months ago, a group of dwarves set off to begin a mining operation. After excavating the surface and building a small fort, the mayor of the nearest town sent some militia to check up on the miners -- and the militia should have returned two days ago. Now the mayor is growing anxious and asks the PCs to investigate Coppernight Keep.
Broken Tower. Ages ago, the tower stood as a bastion against banditry, but civilization has long since retreated from this area and a band of goblins have taken up residence in the ruined lookout. Local woodsfolk beg the PCs to rid the place of bandits before they are victimized again by the goblins of Broken Tower.
Orc Stronghold. A force of orcs have taken over a small hilltop keep. Fortunately, the stronghold was never an effectively defensible bastion. Unfortunately, the orcs are determined to stay. The PCs are engaged by the local lord to rid his home of the intruders.
ADVENTURE FEATURES
Bite-sized crawls. The dungeons are meant to be completed in 2 to 3 hours, and definitely no longer than 4. There will be three encounters: an introductory encounter to give you the feel for the dungeon, a midway encounter to expand the depth of the dungeon's theme, and a final encounter where PCs face the dungeon boss.
Reworked 4e content. The dungeon delves presented in the adventure are 5th edition reconstructs of the 4th edition book, Dungeon Delve. I have made balance changes to the encounters.
Episodic adventure. Each dungeon delve is a completely separate story, which means PCs are free to use a different character for each delve. Now is the time to bring to life some unplayed character ideas!
Adjustable difficulty. Each encounter has been balanced as Medium difficulty for 5 level 1 PCs. If the group is looking for more or less difficulty, the encounters can be scaled to be Easy, Hard, or even Deadly. Failure to complete a dungeon delve (total party kill) will restart the dungeon, and players are free to make new PCs or reuse their previous one.
Personalized loot. Throughout each dungeon delve, each PC will find a magic item specifically for their character! Magic items will be Uncommon rarity, and can either be chosen by the player, or custom designed (homebrewed) by the DM with the player's guidance. PCs who die will pass on their magic items to the controlling player's next PC.
DIGITAL TOOLS
The adventure will be streamed on my Twitch channel, where I will stream the digital tabletop (you will not be able to move your character directly, but you can tell me where to move them). You may use any form of character sheet desired, whether that be irl paper, D&D Beyond, or even a Google Doc. Dice can also be digital or physical
TARGET AUDIENCE
This adventure will be for 5 English speaking young and older adults of all tabletop RPG experience levels. If you've never played D&D 5e or if you're an experience D&D sage, you are more than welcome. The group will be an LGBTQ+ friendly group and no intolerance whatsoever is allowed.
DISHONESTY
I have been DMing for the better half of my life (weekly sessions over 10 years), and am very familiar with the 5e system. I will look over every PC character sheet only once, just to correct any mistakes. I will not be looking at dice when players roll, so I expect (and hope for) each player to roll with honor.
DM STYLE & MATURE THEMES
My DMing style tends to be around three quarters RAW (Rules as Written) and one quarter RAF (Rules as Fun). I would much prefer a round in combat to be fast and easy rather than slow and complicated. I will handwave most attempts to express realism, because my version of D&D is heroic high magic fantasy.
The limit of mature themes in my games are comparable to Lord of the Rings. Everything you see in those movies are similar in theme to what you'll see/hear at my games. There will be absolutely no sexual content, and profanity will be kept to PG-13. Players are expected to do the same.
TIME & DATE
Each dungeon delve session will take place on a Saturday evening at 6pm EST. The time can start 1 hour earlier or later (5pm / 7pm) to accommodate the group. Sessions will be spaced out bi-weekly (every other week).
Once the roster has been formed, we will meet for a brief Session 0 where we will introduce ourselves, discuss character creation details, decide on a difficulty level, and set the day/time we will have our first session.
MANDATORY REQUIREMENTS
Firstly, each player must have a decent headset, Discord, a Twitch account, and availability for up to 4 hours per session. Please be sure that your headset is reliably functional (or that you can use Push to Talk), I cannot DM if someone's mic is producing static or background noise. The digital tabletop will be streamed on Twitch, so you will need to have the internet broadband to both be in a voice call and watch a stream on Twitch. Lastly, an application MUST be submitted to be considered for play: https://forms.gle/VxTPzswYknzMxZmq5

Hello! I just submitted an application :) Thank you for the opportunity!
This sounds like fun. Application sent!
Sent in a submission, hope to hear soon, love the idea and ingenuity of turning a 4e setting into 5e and whatnot. Would love to join.
