Vecna: Eve of Ruin

Save existence from annihilation in Vecna: Eve of Ruin, an epic, multiverse-spanning adventure. The notorious lich Vecna is weaving a ritual to eliminate good, obliterate the gods, and subjugate all worlds. To stop Vecna before he remakes the universe, the heroes work with three of the multiverse’s most famous archmages, travel to far-flung locales, and rebuild the legendary Rod of Seven Parts.

Vecna: Eve of Ruin is a high-stakes Dungeons & Dragons adventure in which the fate of the multiverse hangs in the balance. The heroes begin in the Forgotten Realms and travel to Planescape, Spelljammer, Eberron, Ravenloft, Dragonlance, and Greyhawk as they race to save existence from obliteration. Legendary D&D figures like The Spider Queen, Tasha, Tiamat, Mordenkainen, and Strahd von Zarovich play important roles in this epic tale!

The campaign will start with the new prelude adventure, Vecna: Nest of the Eldritch Eye, which will lead into Vecna: Eve of Ruin. Characters will begin the campaign at level 1 and will progress all the way to level 20 before it ends!

About Me

I've been playing and running D&D games for almost 40 years, dating all the way back to AD&D. It's been my pleasure to serve as a full-time professional DM for over five years now, with most of that time spent running games online. Perfecting my craft is my primary focus, and I constantly seek ways to elevate the game to new levels.

I love customizing each campaign with stories and quests created exclusively for that group, thus ensuring that each player has a unique and memorable experience. I enjoy helping players develop their characters over a long story arc that unfolds amidst the campaign. The DM might be considered the chief storyteller, but the story is meant to belong to the players. I encourage everyone at the table to contribute to the tale that is being told.

I am blessed to work with a talented group of DMs who provide an even better gaming experience for everyone by working as a team. We collaborate to provide extra help to people, and we're very welcoming to newcomers.

Why A Paid Game

With D&D increasing in popularity, the number of players continues to grow rapidly. There aren't enough experienced DMs running free games, which fill up fast and often end quickly because there is no investment by either the players or the DM. My games are designed for players who want to play with the same people every week to build a memorable story together, rather than constantly starting over by joining the next free game pops up. If you want to journey through a long-term official D&D campaign and experience it the way it was meant to played, then join us.

Here are a few of the reasons joining one of my games can provide an excellent experience:

• I own everything ever published by TSR or WOTC, and I'm well-versed in all the lore.
• I strive to create an immersive experience for my players, while teaching newcomers along the way.
• This is my career. It's my passion.
• I will show up for sessions prepared and provide an outstanding experience week after week.
• Charging a small entry fee per person virtually eliminates postponed sessions and broken campaigns due to player no-shows.
• People who are willing to pay a modest fee tend to approach the game with a better attitude. They typically don't quit impulsively when things don't go their way.
• Players do not need to purchase anything at all to participate. Everything is included.
• Access to all relevant sourcebooks for character creation, leveling, and game play is provided free of charge via compendium sharing.
• I purchase or create many additional materials, including high-quality maps, to make everyone's gaming experience even better.
• We have a Code of Conduct which is designed to ensure a safe and inclusive gaming space for everyone. Bullying, harassment, and assaultive behavior is not tolerated here. We take everyone's well-being seriously.

Because I've already purchased all of the relevant material, you'll have access to over a dozen sourcebooks at no additional cost when you create your character for this campaign. This includes over 120 classes and subclasses, 100 races and subraces, 80-plus feats, and over 40 official backgrounds.

New Players Welcome!

We go out of our way to welcome beginners. This includes people who have never played anywhere before, as well as those who are simply new to online play. We are happy to provide newcomers with extra help to get them settled in and learn the game, including during character creation, in game, and between sessions. There is no extra charge for any additional help you might need.
