Use of Foundry

Please download Foundry VTT ahead of the campaign. It’s a reliable, well-supported virtual tabletop that we’ll be using throughout gameplay. All dice rolls — unless specifically requested live — will be handled through Foundry VTT using the Beyond20 extension.

Although Foundry offers character creation tools, you’ll be building your character in D&D Beyond, where you’ll have access to 20 official Wizards of the Coast sourcebooks. When you send me an email to join my campaign, as noted above, you will receive an email with your Foundry account/password, a link to the campaign itself and instructions on selecting a 3rd party player token.

Use of Beyond20

Beyond20 is a browser extension for Chrome and Firefox that seamlessly connects your D&D Beyond character sheet with Foundry VTT, Roll20, and even Discord. It allows you to roll dice, display spell cards, show features, and share item details directly in the VTT chat.

Once installed, Beyond20 adds roll buttons to your D&D Beyond character sheet — abilities, skill checks, saving throws, weapon attacks, spells, and more—making virtual gameplay smooth and interactive.

How to Install Beyond20

Visit the Chrome Web Store or Firefox Add-ons and search for "Beyond20." Click "Add to Chrome" or "Add to Firefox" to complete the installation.

Levelling Up: XP?

XP progression is the same as standard D&D except that level 11 starts at 82000 instead of 85000. The early levels progress faster than the higher levels. Advancement will follow milestone-based XP thresholds, not the default 5E XP chart.

Session 1 >> Level 1, Level 2, Level 3
Session 2 >> Level 3, Level 4
Session 3 >> Level 4 ...

About 3-4 hours of gameplay will take place each session. In my campaign, levels are milestones in themselves. XP-based events/encounters are “fitted” within this framework. XP is awarded for more than just combat.Throughout the campaign you will all be rewarded XP and level up together.
