About the adventure
Start your own Dungeons & Dragons 5th Edition Adventure Path! Individual players welcome. No experience necessary. Folks are acting strangely in a sleepy mining town. A malevolent cult threatens to overtake the region. Heroes needed! Create a hero to start the adventure: an Elf Ranger, a Tiefling Rogue, a Dwarf Cleric, a Human Wizard or maybe a Dragonborn Paladin. Arm yourself and join the fight! Join the other heroes to follow the clues into the Lost Mines, and then into the Underdark. The adventure will take a party of heroes to 13th level (at least).

About me
Join a campaign with one of the top-rated Game Masters on StartPlaying! I specialize in running official Dungeons & Dragons campaigns. I love introducing the game to new players, so if you're unsure of the rules, or new to online role playing games, give one of my games a try! I've run games for players from a variety of backgrounds and skill levels, including volunteering as a DM with kids and young adults with autism. My games are a safe space for LGTBQ+ players, players of colour and players with neurodiversity.

Creating your character
Players may participate in a free 'Session 0' for character generation. Characters can be created in D&D Beyond, but we will work together to transfer their details to Fantasy Grounds. Player options will be restricted to the 2024 Player's Handbook * No Unearthed Arcana content
Now recruiting at Level 9 - Current party is a Dwarf Barbarian, a Half-elf Druid, a Human Paladin, a Half-elf Bard and a High Elf Wizard. What do you want to play?
What to expect
Preparing for the session
You will need profiles for Discord and Fantasy Grounds (basic access for both is free). No experience with D&D, Fantasy Grounds, or Discord required. Reach out if you're not sure how to get started!
What Scott N brings to the table
DM is a Fantasy Grounds Unity Ultimate license holder (players join and use FGU for free). By joining the campaign in Fantasy Grounds, you will get access to all of the content you need.
Homebrew rules
I stick to the rules as written, rather than make you learn house rules--but if you want to *bend* the rules, describe something cool and cinematic, and it just might work!

How Scott N creates a safe table
Players will participate in Session 0, and review Lines & Veils. The Digital Deck of Player Safety will be part of this process. In addition, I have a Fantasy Grounds extension that allows users to anonymously submit requests to signal discomfort with subject matter (X, N & O's).
