Dark Dragon, a terror of the old world was summoned by a powerful sorcerer to rule the world. The kingdoms of Gaia were crushed and many perished as the world fell into darkness. The goddess Astea wept at the suffering of the people and awoke Bahamut, King of the Holy Dragons who turned the tide against the dragons of darkness. Emboldened by the appearance of their king, the holy dragons fought valiantly and their victory was all but assured. With their strength waning, the holy dragons found they could not kill Dark Dragon. Desperate, they used the very last of their power to create artifacts called Dragon Crystals to seal him away until such a time as new chosen warriors would rise up to defeat Dark Dragon permanently. The kingdoms of the world were entrusted to protect these powerful crystals as the holy dragons, greatly weakened, fell into a deep slumber one by one. As a new dawn arose, Gaia returned to peace for a time. A millennia or more passed and the world forgot the tragedies that came before...The advent of the airship marked the realization of the Kingdom of Baron's dreams, but also the birth of its militarism. With its sky force called the Red Wings, Baron soon reigned supreme. Now it only exploits its newfound power by beginning an unprovoked military campaign against every nation that guards a crystal. The King of Baron will stop at nothing to seize the Dragon Crystals hidden throughout the world. You have served the Kingdom of Baron faithfully for many years, rising in the ranks and gaining the trust of it's King. After being stripped of your rank for questioning the orders of the King of Baron, you have been sent to the village of Mist to deliver a signet ring to its leader and slay an evil dragon. If you complete this quest the King promised to restore your rank, your Airship, and his trust in you. Experience an epic, adventurous, and high-flying campaign that pulls out all the stops! Encounter dragons of all kinds, from well known, to mysterious and obscure as you explore the world of Gaia. Become stronger, level up and get mysterious and powerful magic items faster than most D&D games! Journey from levels 5 to 20 and beyond! More choices! Choose from any of the standard races or classes or go for something special such as custom classes, custom races, unofficial classes/races. Your imagination is the limit!

Roll20 is not responsible for any payment transactions and cannot enforce any private arrangements." Why Pay to Play? These days so many people are trying to get into a free game, but there just aren't enough experienced and good DMs to meet the demand. More often than not players spend their valuable time filling out applications and get rejected time and time again because of too many people trying to apply for each free game. When you actually do get accepted players sometimes don't show up or the DM doesn't show up or is unprepared. It's a very negative experience to go through constantly when all you want to do is have a good time and relax. Here are some of the reasons why professionally-run paid games are a much better experience: Avoid the difficulty of getting accepted into a game, don't wait days or weeks to hear back from the DM, get in quick! Charging a small fee nearly eliminates no-shows. A modest fee also ensures that everyone in the group is committed to the game and responsible. People will not just abandon the group and quit the game when something doesn't go the way they want. The game experience you will get from a professional DM is far more enjoyable than a free game could provide. Maturity level is much higher in paid games. Different voices for each NPC including accents if possible. A prepared Dungeon Master who is well invested in the Campaign. An immersive and dynamic roleplaying experience with detailed descriptions of everything. Custom music tracks integrated into Roll20 for realistic atmosphere and immersion. Access to additional subraces, subclasses, feats, spells and more with the DM's shared access compendium to Tasha's Cauldron of Everything, Xanathar's Guide to Everything and the Player's Handbook! All the benefits of the DM's Roll20 Pro membership which gives players access to extras such as, D&D 5e Compendium integration, API Scripts, and more. Help for Beginners. Sandbox style adventuring (no railroading). YOU are the hero of the story and your choices matter, everything that happens in the world is interwoven around what you do and don't do. About your Dungeon Master I have been running Dungeons and Dragons since the 1990's. Over the course of my extensive experience I have run short campaigns and long term campaigns lasting several years. I have a passion for creating living stories and adventures that my players can experience in a fantastical world. I strive to create an exciting world full of intriguing mysteries, alluring treasure, and deep NPCs that are rewarding to discover. I endeavor to create a highly immersive experience that is unmatched, such as extremely descriptive game environments, exciting and dynamic combat full of interactive opportunities, freedom of choice, and atmospheric music that changes based on the mood and situation. Furthermore, I love roleplaying and creating realistic voices for NPCs and acting them out in a colorful way. I also take great pride in creating custom characters, stories, and encounters not included in the written material to keep things interesting! Above all I want to make sure that everyone has a good time and gets the experience they wanted. I will strive to help you create your character and a backstory if desired. I welcome both new and experienced players to my game!
