# About the Campaign
This is an open-world D&D 2024 campaign set in Runeterra, the world of League of Legends. The campaign follows a One Piece-inspired structure: large adventures built from simple goals - Locate a magical relic, become the best swordman, avenge a fallen loved one, Ascend to become the chosen of a God, etc...
Everything about this campaign will be built off your character choices.
#How it all starts
All Characters are responding to an advert to join a local KINETIC JOUST competition. Kinetic Jost is a play on DND combat and if you like combat, you will hopefully enjoy Kinetic Joust.
#About Me:
I have been playing and running campaigns for 15 years. I enjoy longer campaigns as this hopes to be. I try funny voices and love to build off of character stories.
#Why Runeterra? -
Runeterra Comes with lots of lore across distinct and interesting biomes. Fun Legendary character, creatures and monsters that are fully fleshed out. Also a fantastic interactive map available for everyone.

#What you can expect from this game
Reliability - there are only 2 reasons I may ever cancel a session: 1 is if I get sick, and also I live in a very hurricane-prone area. If I get hit with a hurricane, I may be without power for a few days and I will have to cancel. Otherwise, I will be ready to go every week as long as we have at least 3 players.
A fair game. All rolls are public. I will never fudge, even to save a character. That said, this campaign is not a meatgrinder.
Old-School Mechanics. If the dice say that your character dies, then they die. While I want everyone to have fun and I am rooting for you to prevail, I believe a real game has risks involved and if you take on a high level of risk, then there will be stakes. If your character dies, you are invited to make a new one or to get them resurrected. I also use lingering injuries, 1:1 timekeeping, encumbrance (where appropriate), and old-school dungeon mapping.
Comprehensive in-game compendium. Contains the PHB, XGE, Tasha's, Volos, Fizbans, MToF, EGTW, and 3rd party books if players wish to use them.
New Players Welcome. I will be happy to teach anyone 5e rules. I don't mind if you are struggling a bit at first, we were all new once.
Personalized Experience. This is a very sandboxy game and there are many choices that will be left up to the group and to the individual characters. The world will change and react to choices you make. You will not be on rails.
RP Encouraged. I do voices and (sometimes bad) accents.
#Player expectations:
Be at least 18 years old. There isn't any 18+ content in this game, but at the same time it is a game geared towards adults. Exceptions may be made for older teens if they have a parent also playing.
Have Discord and a working mic.
Be respectful to other players.
Try to handle any conflict that arises privately and with maturity.
Do not stream game sessions or put recordings of games online without all players' permission. I prefer games that happen privately- people act differently when they know they are being recorded. However, I am comfortable with it if someone does want to stream, but you must obtain the permission of every other player if you choose to do so.
Absolutely no real life politics. Players of all political persuasions are welcome, but we will not be talking about it. We are in a very tumultuous time in the world politically, I understand, but we are all using D&D as a way to escape from that. I promise not to use this game to preach my politics, and I expect the same courtesy from you. Note that this means that you may be in a game with people who have different politics than you do; if you cannot handle this knowledge, then perhaps another game would suit you better.
#Adult content policy
This is a PG-13 rated game, but is restricted to players over the age of 18.
Content that may be included in the game: Swearing, implied or "fade-to-black" sex, drug and alcohol abuse, violence, fictitious slurs (underscum, pointy-ears, ankle-biter, etc.), racism against fantasy races, deals with devils, demonic cults, body horror, death
Off-limits content: Sexual assault or any type of sexual violence, erotic role-play, real-life slurs, real-life political commentary
#Non-discrimination Policy
This game does not discriminate against players based on politics, sex, sexuality, religion, race, or age (provided players are 18+). If you do not wish to play with someone who differs from you in any of these categories, then I encourage you to find a game that is a better fit for you.
