About the adventure
⚔️ Classic D&D | ⚔️ Great for beginners | ⚔️ There be dragons... Hail! I'm really pleased to be running this classic D&D Adventure for 1st level characters through to around 5th level. Don't miss your chance for fame and fortune! This adventure really suits my style - light hearted antics with higher and higher stakes and an overarching story to tie everything together. Maybe that would suit you too? Based on the official D&D module "Dragon of Icespire Peak". This campaign is full of quests, exploration and combat. This is one of my very favourite campaigns to run and every party takes it in directions I wasn't expecting. I'd love to see where you want to take it. Here's the gist: the outpost village of Phandalin faces a twin threat. Sightings of a white dragon have rattled the town-master. So far it hasn't ventured down from the hills but it's only a matter of time. Meanwhile a large band of orcs, driven from their homes and allied with devotees of an evil Storm God are on the march looking for a new place to live and leaving a trail of destruction in their wake. It's not all bad though... adventurers looking to make their fortunes and reputations will find there's plenty of work to do. Will you be one of them? This is the module included in the D&D Essentials Set - very suitable for beginners to D&D but a great classic 'it starts in a tavern' adventure for everyone. I expect it to run 15-18 sessions or so but most groups I've run want to take their characters beyond it and I'm very happy to do that.
Monday mornings UK time. An established party, but you'll be very welcome to join. We're at level 7, having finished Dragon of Icespire Peak and moved on to Storm Lord's Wrath.

Additional details
How to prepare
✔ Microphone ✔ Discord account (free) ✔ DnD Beyond account ✔ Web browser - I use Chrome so that's best for compatability
What I provide
✔ I hope to make a safe and inclusive game that's fun. ✔ I'll prepare well before each session - including combat and exploration maps. ✔ Enthusiasm and excitement
Gameplay details
I will brief everyone of the safety tools we use before the campaign and before every session, I post a list of lines and veils that are active that session. We'll use D&D Beyond for character sheets, Discord for voice chat and Owlbear Rodeo for maps and combat. I set up campaign specific channels in discord so that you can discuss and roleplay in Discord between the fortnightly sessions. Video's completely optional. After every session, we'll perform a quick review and suggest any changes for the next time to ensure we all have a great experience and can steer how I run the campaign. We'll have a 10-15 minute break somewhere in the middle but it's a-ok if anyone needs to step away briefly for any reason.

How will character creation work
So that we have as much game time as possible, I'd like players to set up characters on D&D Beyond before the first session. I can help with character ideas or provide pre-generated characters if needed. Please use point buy for your abilities - it saves on awkward conversations about cheating! If you're new to D&D, I would advise you to stick to options in the Player's Handbook, especially at level 1. If you have a burning desire to play something from another rulebook, we can talk about that and I'll do my best to accommodate. I will create a campaign on D&D Beyond and I'll send a link so that you can add your characters to it.
