Dungeons and Dragons have been a pastime that I enjoyed thoroughly. With COVID hitting like wildfire, online text-based dungeon and dragon games became a large part of my life. The Avrae Discord bot and its partnership with Wizards of the Coast allowed me to combine my passion for game design with playing Dungeons and Dragons(D&D).
I ran a Dungeons and Dragons Open World Campaign for over three years with the people close to me. While questing is fun and story-building essential, We strove to make a living and breathing world for every player. When the Dungeon Masters(DMs) were offline, I wanted players to be still able to do things and have fun. So, I started working on the Activity Bots.

Crime
In roleplaying, not everyone wants to be heard. Some start poor and must make a living, even if that means committing a crime. This world wanted to let everyone have a chance to be successful and make their own choices. So, a couple of crime activities were made for characters to test their luck.
