About the adventure
"Phandelver and Below: The Shattered Obelisk is a high-fantasy adventure that begins in the beloved town of Phandalin as it faces unimaginable danger. Whether the heroes are newcomers to Phandalin or are returning after the acclaimed Dungeons & Dragons adventure Lost Mine of Phandelver, they discover hints of a threat lurking below the town. The heroes soon learn that the cult of a malevolent entity has set its sights on transforming Phandalin into the capital of its evil empire. To save the town from oblivion, the heroes must uncover a nefarious plot and confront the otherworldly cultists directly." This Dungeons and Dragons campaign of intrigue, exploration, and danger will take heroes to from level 1 to level 12. Whether new to D&D or an experienced gamer, you will find something to love in this campaign. New players are welcome. They will receive tips on character building, the rules, and how to succeed in D&D group play. New players will leave the campaign feeling an expert. Both new and experienced players will see a time-spanning campaign where their characters make a difference, a game where their backstories and actions matter on both personal and macro levels. This experience is curated to group tastes by a published gaming creative skilled in running diverse moods and themes. This experience includes the following: * A Session 0, where we build character concepts and relationships, while talking about what we want from a campaign and setting up safety tools * An introduction where your character, a member of a skilled team, finds a place in the world * The story will flesh out a world and provide memorable experiences * This story has strong spooky feels * This campaign is a great place for new players to get into the game * This campaign will incorporate many elements from the deluxe edition of the story lovingly crafted by the team at Beadle and Grimm's You will be spoiled in this game. Players have complete access to a D&D Beyond library worth over $1000. We use Roll20 Premium as our VTT, Zoom communications (higher quality video, sound, and stability to Discord - plus encryption), and sound effects via Syrinscape. No expense is spared in making the absolute best game for you. Plus nearing the end of the campaign, the DM will personally send you a thank you gift for your participation. Don't wait. Connor's games tend to fill very quickly, and new games aren't offered often.
This is an every-week campaign, playing until the campaign has ended.

How to prepare
Players should download the following software and have accounts for the following software. Only free accounts are required, as the costs of all subscriptions are bore by the DM. * Zoom * A browser (Chrome or Firefox) with the Beyond20 extension installed and enabled * Roll20 * D&D Beyond Players should have access a computer capable of running the above software simultaneously, as well as a working mic and camera. As a potential Learn to Play campaign, players do not need to read or know substantial things before the Session 0.
What I provide
The DM will maintain premium paid accounts for shared software, granting players unlimited and safe communication, access to maps and handouts, character sheets, a dice roller, and unlimited access to all online assets for D&D through D&D Beyond.
Gameplay details
Players can expect a fun and light gaming experience with a few challenging sequences and high drama. Plenty of opportunities for comedy, wonder, and spectacle are available. Safety tools are critical to ensure this remains true. You can expect safety tools to be seamlessly woven into how the game is played - you might not even notice them happening. Session 0 is mandatory for all players (even late arrivals). Each game starts with a mental health check and ends with a discussion of the game. Players will be given opportunity to confidentially share their lines and veils, and the X card can be played in a number of easy ways. In short, a safe environment where players can build community and explore the game world will be fostered.
