Dungeons & Dragons 5e | Campaign

About the adventure

Welcome to the legendary city of Waterdeep, a prosperous city where many seek their fortunes, and others take it. What starts as a simple quest for a missing person quickly thrusts you through the vibrant streets of Waterdeep, where heroic deeds and fateful choices shape the destiny of both city and adventurer. In this immersive campaign, you have the opportunity to forge your own path and become the very tale that everyone tells. As you step into the vibrant tapestry of Waterdeep, you'll encounter a melting pot of diverse cultures, powerful factions, and enigmatic characters. The city's bustling markets, noble houses, and mysterious guilds hold both opportunities and perils, as ancient secrets and untold treasures lie hidden beneath the surface. "Tales of Waterdeep" beckons you to assemble a fellowship of extraordinary individuals, each with their own motivations and skills. Together, you will face daunting challenges, navigate treacherous intrigues, and battle formidable foes. Your actions will reverberate throughout the City of Splendors. Forge alliances, make enemies, and form unbreakable bonds with a diverse cast of characters who will shape the course of your adventure. Every choice you make shapes your reputation and the narrative that unfolds. Will you rise as the hero whose name echoes through the ages, or succumb to the temptations that threaten to consume you? Whether you're a seasoned D&D player or new to the game, this is the perfect campaign to test your skills and strategy. Your actions will be remembered, your victories celebrated, and your name whispered in awe. Will you seize the opportunity to become the legend that transcends time? In "Tales of Waterdeep," the story is yours to create, and the legacy is yours to shape. Will you rise to the occasion and become the tale that everyone tells? While having a basic knowledge of the rules is certainly helpful, it is not required. No downloads are required, but you will need an account on Discord. You can find the basic rules here: https://dndbeyond.com/sources/basic-rules Discord: https://discord.com/ This adventure starts at level 2!

Craig is awesome and pawesome! All around great DM that heavily focuses on player's agency, your choices, lots of really in-depth roleplay and fun. Speaking of, you can always poke fun at him when he says a name of the character wrong lol.

Very fun sessions with a good group of people, Craig does a great job at creating the world and voicing the characters. Combat is tough but fair, and he loves a good trap/ambush. Highly recommended.
