DnD 5e Notes

Setting: fantasy encroaching upon early tech. Essentially a steampunk precursor? Varied and open to a large variety of aesthetics. Built to support flexible growth and player contribution.
Races: virtually open to anything
Classes: currently no restrictions
Starting Level: 3?
Possibly a bonus background feat chosen by me
Maybe one magic item TBD
DMPC should be chosen to balance with PCs on account of small group size
Possibly Tiefling Warlock specializing in crafting skills and serving as support

Initial quest: Escort caravan to city/castle holding a banquet to celebrate a monster hunt
PCs are part of the same mercenary group, hired to defend the caravan of caterers for the banquet; wagons are mobile kitchens enchanted to be larger on the inside

History
Starting continent: Primis; arid environment, does not directly border any other continent
