Legends of Us – Chapter 1

Legends of Us – Chapter 1

A character driven high fantasy campaign where your story shapes the world.

This campaign is about building a legend together. The world will grow from the characters, their stories, and the choices they make along the way.

Style of the Campaign

This campaign is strongly focused on the characters and their stories. The world and the main plot will grow directly from the players’ backstories, motivations, and choices.

Each character will bring pieces of the world with them. Locations, factions, allies, enemies, and personal goals will all become part of the campaign. As the game progresses, multiple storylines will develop and slowly connect together.

This is a cooperative world building experience where we create the story together. I will bring prepared plots, secrets, and events based on what you give me. The direction of the campaign will be shaped by the characters.

The goal is to create a living story where the players are building their own legend.

Setting

The campaign takes place in a classic high fantasy world inspired by traditional D&D adventures. Expect villages, cities, ancient forests, forgotten ruins, magical places, political intrigue, and powerful forces shaping the land.

Exploration and discovery will play an important role as the world slowly reveals its secrets. Some stories may focus on local problems in small communities, while others may grow into larger events affecting entire regions.

Game Details

This first chapter is a mini campaign lasting around 3 to 4 months. During this time, the main storylines will develop and reach their conclusion.

After that, there will be a time skip before a possible Chapter 2, which may include returning or new players.

Session 0 – March 21 (Free)

We will create characters together, expand on backstories, and build connections between the party. We may also run a short prequel combat to test character synergy.

Session 1 – March 28

Sessions take place every week at 10 AM EST. Occasionally we may skip a week to allow space for real life events.

I am looking for committed players who want to help build a strong and interesting story together.

Character Creation

• We start at 1st level

• Characters use the 2024 rules

• Creation through Roll20 Charactermancer (preferred) or DnDBeyond if you know how to use it well

• Ability scores use Point Buy or Standard Array

• Use starting equipment, not gold purchase

• Any official source can be used

GM Style and Game Pace

My DMing style tends to move at a fairly high pace. While the world building and character stories are important, I like to make sure that every session includes some form of adventure.

This might be exploration, combat, dangerous encounters, or important discoveries. I try to move the story forward so we reach the exciting parts of the game quickly rather than spending long periods without action.

Roleplay and character moments are still an important part of the game, but sessions usually aim to include meaningful progress and engaging situations for the party.

What Kind of Players This Game Is For

This campaign is best for players who enjoy building a story together while actively participating in the adventure. If you like creating backstories, exploring a living world, and seeing your character’s choices shape the direction of the campaign, you will fit well here.

Players who enjoy imagination, teamwork, and a game that keeps moving forward with regular exploration, encounters, and action will get the most out of this campaign.
