Why Pay to Play?
Normally, payed sessions become a more reliable option. Most hobbies require a small amount of resources to be spent and this one is no different. By paying for a game you're guaranteeing that the appropriate resources are at your disposal, both digital material (books, maps, tokens, Roll20 features) and your GM's time as well.

Here are some reasons for this:

- The small fee also ensures that everyone in the group is committed to the session and shows up accordingly.
- The maturity level is exponentially higher in paid games.
- People don't abandon the group and quit the campaign when something doesn't go their way and are more cooperative to find solution for their problems.
- Material costs associated with running a top-shelf game are covered. Roll20 charges fees for the token, map, and card collections associated with each module, while the actual hardcover books and DM Guild downloads must be purchased separately.
- The GM's Roll20 Plus membership ensures that players can have a better battlemap experience through dynamic lightning.
- An immersive experience that includes advanced role-play techniques, and effects.

About me, the Game Master
With more then 3000 hours logged on the site and playing with people from all over the world, I've been running several D&D modules for more then three years now, with live and online groups alike. I love stories and so I take my time customizing each adventure with story lines and subplots that aren't found in the officially published material mainly focused on things that my Players provided me. As a result, even people who have read the source material, previously played or even run it, will always enjoy a unique experience.

I like to follow the rules that are provided for game balance but creativity is always appreciated and rewarded. Role-playing is much encouraged, but isn't required from the start, after all we need to warm up to each other first. This is a tailor made adventure for beginners to start their D&D journey with the classic tale of the "Lost Mine of Phandelver" campaign that will expanse further into what lies beyond the original story. ;)

My main job as GM is to ensure that every single player at the table has a good time and feels comfortable. That is very important to me. So if you play through a campaign with me, I will try my best to make it a fun experience that you will remember and cherish well after it's over, but never forget, D&D is a group experience so I will require your help in the matter. :)

Character Creation
A session zero (preparation session for the campaign, free) will be had once the full party of players is established (minimum four). The starting date will be weekly postpone until the group is set and if you have little or no experience playing D&D online, don't worry as I will help you prepare before the start and also provide ongoing assistance as you progress.
The campaign itself will go for 9 to 12 months, depending on how each session and the party flow goes, where we will eventually reach it's climax.
