Campaña en curso de Dungeons & Dragons: ¡Fantasmas de Saltmarsh!

The remote village of Saltmarsh sits upon the precipice of destruction.  It has long been the target and haven of pirates, smugglers, and other ne'er-do-wells.  But the King has vowed to put an end to the lawlessness!  Further out from shore, viscous sea creatures and darker things plot against the surface dwellers.  And all the while servants of a forbidden god wait for the moment to strike!

Saltmarsh needs heroes to arise to keep its citizens and the sea lanes safe!  Heroes like you!

In this class we will adventure through the D&D Campaign Ghosts of Saltmarsh.  This campaign will provide adventure on the high seas for heroes from 1st level to 12th level and beyond!

Previous experience is NOT a requirement!  We welcome all learners regardless of experience or skill level.  Rules will be taught as needed.

Our first class will consist of character creation.  We will go beyond the numbers to create fully fleshed out personalities.  These personal details will inform the learner's decisions about how their character will react in different scenarios.  

Please note:  we will be using the 2014 Player's Handbook, Xanathar's Guide to Everything, and Tasha's Cauldron of Everything  to create characters.  The Backgrounds from Ghosts of Saltmarsh will also be available.

To make sure that the campaign is fun for everyone we have these rules in place: 

1. No evil characters:  This adventure is about mighty heroes trying to overcome an immense evil force determined to reshape the world.  

2. Create a character that will work with others:  Remember that RPG’s are a team sport. They work best when all the characters work together to achieve goals and overcome obstacles. While your character doesn’t have to be BFF’s with all the other characters, they need to at least be willing to work with the others for a common goal. No angry, edgy loners!

3. No PvP:  In the spirit of working together as a team sport, PvP (Player vs. Player combat) is not allowed.  

4. No attacking innocent NPCs: This adventure takes place in a living world where actions have consequences. While battles against villains and monsters are part of the game, unprovoked attacks on innocent townsfolk, shopkeepers, or allies are not allowed. The goal is to create a heroic story, not chaos.

5.  No Metagaming:  Some of the fun of D&D is encountering surprises. If you haven't read the adventure before you start this campaign, please don't start!  You may have already read the campaign before you begin this class.  However, please try to not use your knowledge of the adventure during the game.  Avoiding encounters and obstacles during the campaign will make the entire experience less fun.  The No Metagaming rule extends to the Monster Manual.  You may look up creature stats before or after class, but using the Monster Manual during class is strictly prohibited!

6.  Honor System for dice rolls:  You are welcome to use physical dice or an online dice roller for class.  Please be honest with your dice rolls.  Always succeeding makes the adventure really boring really fast.

The sea awaits!
