Call of the Netherdeep: An Exandrian Expedition

Long ago, a war between gods of good and evil scoured the surface of the world of Exandria. Both the noble Prime Deities and the selfish Betrayer Gods imbued their mortal champions with supernatural gifts that granted them strength enough to challenge their divine foes. The greatest of these champions was Alyxian, the Apotheon, who received the blessings of three Prime Deities to save the world from the apocalyptic power of the Betrayer Gods.

Centuries later, all knowledge of this godlike hero has been lost to time, and a group of adventurers are called upon to retrace this mythic hero’s steps and free him from his timeless prison. The tale begins in lands familiar to Critical Role fans—the war-scarred wastes of Xhorhas and the glimmering oasis city of Ank’Harel—but ultimately stretches beyond the Material Plane to a realm of lightless despair known as the Netherdeep.

This backstory inspired expedition for characters level 1-13 and beyond will take players all around Exandria and below.

Game style:

• Players can expect a good balance of fun, memorable roleplaying mixed with challenging combat, memorable NPCs, vibrant locations and an engaging story. Focused on meeting each player’s play style preference.
• This is a beginner-friendly level 1-13+ campaign. Expected session count 25-30.
• I use Discord for group chat during sessions and Roll20 for virtual tabletop. Players will have access to my content on D&D Beyond for character creation, which is recommended, but not required.
• Sessions will have a 10-15 minute bio break, usually midway through.
• Progression is XP based
• Fun RP, creative solutions and outside the box thinking will be rewarded with bonus XP and inspiration. Also, player reward system through Discord “stars” that can be used for items and boosting up your character.
• New characters will have a chance to roll d100s for special items pre-campaign.

DM Style: I am a professional actor and avid player of games of many varieties. Been playing RPGs for many years and DMing for 2 years. My campaigns are story driven with a strong focus on character development, but with challenging encounters still. Table is a safe-space with no toleration of judgement or bullying. Everyone is welcome.

How to join: Contact me on Discord, JScotty76, or leave a few notes about you here (pronouns, gaming experience, character ideas and Discord handle). There will be an introductory voice chat on Discord before your first session to talk about gameplay, expectations, character creation and answer any questions you might have.
