Rime of the Frostmaiden: Trapped Under Ice [Level 7]
Dungeons & Dragons 5e | Campaign
About the adventure
In Icewind Dale, adventure is a dish best served cold. Beneath the unyielding night sky, you stand before a towering glacier and recite an ancient rhyme, causing a crack to form in the great wall of ice. Beyond this yawning fissure, the Caves of Hunger await. And past this icy dungeon is a secret so old and terrifying that few dare speak of it. The mad wizards of the Arcane Brotherhood long to possess that which the god of winter’s wrath has so coldly preserved—as do you! What fantastic secrets and treasures are entombed in the sunless heart of the glacier, and what will their discovery mean for the denizens of Icewind Dale? Can you save Ten-Towns from the Frostmaiden's everlasting night?
Icewind Dale: Rime of the Frostmaiden is a tale of dark terror that revisits the forlorn, flickering candlelights of civilization known as Ten-Towns and sheds light on the many bone-chilling locations that surround these frontier settlements. **LOOKING FOR 1-2 MORE** Smart, stable table for a consistent Thursday game - beginners welcome! **Point buy, 2024 rules, magic items, and all character options and races to choose from!** Current Party: Wood Elf Druid High Elf Rogue Half-Elf Bard/Paladin Human Fighter

How to prepare
Please make sure you have a free account and familiarity with DNDBeyond. I have a Master Subscription with all books via Legendary Bundle. Once your character has been created on the Campaign page, you will be able to access ALL D&D sourcebooks on DNDBeyond for as long as you are part of the campaign. Foundry VTT will be the tabletop app for all sessions, which is a powerful tool for narrative storytelling and can add some nice effects to help keep up with all of the party's needs. Also make sure you have a Discord account and a working headset with microphone. Using a headset eliminates echo and feedback. No camera needed! All character options with a Point Buy for stats; all builds and races are encouraged but need to get along with the other players and make sense in the setting. **Please message me after booking for server and campaign links!**

Gameplay details
Gameplay is casual with challenging encounters and RP is encouraged but not required. In a world with swords and fireballs, many violent situations will occur. The campaign is mostly R content with an Open Door policy as well as the listed techniques to guarantee a very chill vibe while we solve problems with swords and spells ;) During Session 0 we will discuss comfort levels and any additional needs we may have based on all player's concerns (Lines and Veils). Those who join after session 0 will have an opportunity to discuss safety tools and campaign expectations. The players at the table assume the following media is on par to the content in this adventure and was heavily influenced by horror along with dark comedy and gritty survivalism in a frozen wasteland: At the Mountains of Madness The Thing The Shining 30 Days of Night Fargo (Movie and TV) The Revenant Hateful Eight Spies Like Us
