Let's Get You Ready!

1. Import your character into my Roll20 game TGFS, True from your Roll20 Characters section. This goes for any mounts, familiars, or summons etc. https://app.roll20.net/join/21025667/b5LCxg
2. Drag and drop your character token onto the screen. It will most likely look completely black until you do this. This is for gauging token darkvision settings. Let me know if you can't see your token when you drop it.
3. I use the Roll20 Jukebox and music is generally thematic so please go into your settings and adjust your volume to a comfortable level for you. If you simply cannot listen to the music, let me know and I will describe it.
4. Read the rest of these rules to learn more about how I run the games and let me know if you have any questions.

🛠️ Roll20 Setup

Help me and your teammates by formatting your Roll20 display cleanly:

1. Click the Cog Wheel (top-right).
2. Under Display Name, format your info like this:
   PC Name (Dicord handle)
3. Under Audio & Video Settings Go to the Video Display tab.
4. Set Player Video/Avatar Size to Names Only.
   This minimizes large badge name icons on the screen and gives you more space to see the map.

🎵 Too Loud?

You can lower the Master Music Volume Level under the same Audio & Video settings as stated in Step 3 above.

🎯 DM Rule Specifics, Ability Checks, & Teamwork

• Potions are a Bonus action to Take and to Administer (You must roll)
  • If you take a potion as an action, you get the full amount of the heal
• Repelling Blast pushes a creature in a horizontal line away from you.
• Sometimes only characters proficient in a skill will be allowed to roll.
• A maximum of two players can act on any one check (unless deemed otherwise by me):
  • This includes casting Guidance or using the Help action, which counts as the second participant.
• Crits count for ability checks and saves. Nat 20 = Success and Nat 1 = Failure
• No Flanking.

🌒 Dynamic Lighting

We use Dynamic Lighting in these sessions. Make sure your token has a light source or darkvision when exploring by following Step 2 at the beginning of these rules.

🛡️ Table Conduct & Comfort

This is a safe space.

• If anything makes you uncomfortable, you may privately DM me during the game and I will handle it quickly and respectfully.
• Please be kind, take turns, and respect each other’s time and contributions.

📚 Know Your Character

• Be ready with a basic understanding of what your character can do.
• If you're new, no worries! Ask questions and learn.
• If you're not new, take your turn confidently and be ready to act.

🔹 Populating the Chat

If you cast a spell, use a feature, or try something unusual, please paste the spell/rule into chat if I ask for it (or reference it clearly). I may not know what it does - there is way too much out there for us all to know everything!

🎁 Heroic Inspiration

Creative, clever, or entertaining gameplay, especially if it makes me laugh or say “oooooh”, may earn you Heroic Inspiration on the spot.

⚖️ Rulings at the Table

• If there's a rules conflict or gray area, I’ll make a quick ruling to keep play moving.
• Feel free to look it up after the session and we’ll correct things next time.
• If I get it wrong, I’ll fix it. If you get it wrong, I expect the same. Let’s all learn together.
• We are using 2024 Rules As Written (RAW) unless otherwise stated.

Let’s tell some great stories, roll some terrible dice, and enjoy the adventure together!
